Shirts are suitable for socializing
This "basket-weave" fabric was originally developed in Japan for Kendo uniforms (Keikogi). The true beauty of this fabric is the texture [ waffle pattern ] and has the high points in the pattern to show wear over the years. The result is a contrasting fade like no other fabric. The super dark indigo will lighten with age. This fabric is not like a woven duck workshirt. It has a knit quality to it but has the ease of movement not like denim or duck canvas.
This shirt has alot of crocking [ the transfer of dye from the surface of a dyed fabric onto another surface by rubbing]. Soak-wash (by hand) and hang dry. As a warning please note that crocking will occur prior to the first 2-3 washes. Wash/soak it alone and dont wear it on top of a light colored shirt.
Warm soak when it starts to smell with a light, natural detergent or Castile soap - DO NOT DRY IN A MACHINE!!!! PERIOD!!!..hang dry.
