A tough as nails vintage icon straight from Japan treated to our authentic Workshirt styling. This is one of the burliest chambrays we've found, but the break-in challenge is well worth it. Wear these hard and enjoy the result.
Japan is hands down the master of creating vintage workwear fabric. Chambray is an icon and one of our partner mills sent us their latest creation in the form of a true beast. At 14 ounces, this is one of the heaviest chambrays we've seen. Big starch adds to the vintage ruggedness. In workshirt form, it takes on a truly bomb proof feel. You'll have to earn this one. The rest of the package honors the original form of chambray. A true indigo with the slightest purple cast is crossed with crisp white. That combination nicely showcases the intense slub and grain in the fabric surface. This is a vintage fabric with real heft that transports you back in time in all the best ways.
Our workshirts are true throwback garments. Inspired by the style's origins of utility and ruggedness. Several construction details define our workshirt. The first is ample triple needlework with a classic chain stitch runoff. Triple needle is a specialized stitch not found on standard button downs and that serves as the heart of any good work shirt. Ours gets triple need flat felled yoke and side seams with chain stitched bottoms. We also allow the side seam chain stitch to “run off” the end giving you three chain stitch ends on each side. We bar tack to ensure the runoff can’t compromise the security of the side seam. The second detail is double chest pockets. We keep ours a bit cleaner, without flaps, but use button closures and double bar tacks in each corner for added strength. The left chest pocket gets the addition of a small pen slot. The third detail is the side hem gussets. It’s a small functional element and looks absolutely great. On our selvedge styles, we incorporate the selvedge on the bottom. Finally, we love the chin strap. Ours is small enough to be tasteful while still reminding you of the workwear roots of the garment. We created new custom Corozo buttons specifically for our work shirts. Overall, this is one of our most intricately constructed garments and one of the most costly to produce.
Our workshirts are available in our Classic and Slim fits. The main differences in details between our workshirts and our other shirting come down to construction - no back box pleat, and differently shaped side scoops. The Slim fit has a more tailored body as compared to our Classic fit. Chest and waist come in to provide a more fitted option. Details are in our fit guide.

"I really love Gustin. I just don't think I'd choose another brand at any price point. And I love watching for new products/return of old favs. But a very important part of the experience is the great customer service."
