Inspired by great artist jackets of the past, this medium weight cotton shirt layers beautifully and can be worn as a jacket too. We love this piece for the long creative hours spent in the studio and for pretty much everything else that has us rolling up our sleeves to get the job done! Two sets of pockets to keep all your supplies and necessities close. Designed for all genders.
Made from exquisite artisan cloth; handspun, naturally dyed & handwoven by village artisans in Bengal. By dyeing the cotton threads before weaving, the warp and weft combine to create a rich colour with a unique depth and shade. This cloth celebrates the handcraft and skill of the dyers and weavers who created it.
