Shimoga Shirt - Handwoven Kala Cotton - Heather Grey

The perfect oversized shirt. The versatility of wearing it open or closed makes it a great layering piece and a Maiwa favourite. This style features cuffs made with the selvedge edge of the cloth - a lovely and unique detail. The Shimoga Shirt stays true to what we believe about timeless sustainable design; it's easily worn year round.

Made with beautiful handwoven kala cotton cloth. Kala cotton is indigenous to the Kachchh region of India. It is highly sustainable and organic by nature, as farmers do not need to use any pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. All it needs to thrive is one monsoon a year. The final product is a desirable cotton with a natural fleck that softens with every wash.
