This handwoven cotton Suriya Shirt is a loose-fitting button-up with a dropped shoulder. It is light and effortless to wear, featuring shell buttons and a concealed front placket. The pattern pieces feature stripes that alternate directions, adding a unique design element.
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.
