An example of the type of ultra-rare Japan fabric you just won't find anywhere else. Exploding with rustic charm, intense character, and a colorful finish, these are the Rainbow Nep Rustic Wool Shirts.
We know Japan as the masters of rugged, big texture selvedge denim. It's clear that those same principles and attention to detail result in some of the most beautiful shirting fabric we've seen. Today is an example. It starts with yarn - rustic, fibrous wool. It has a classic old-school feel. The construction is extremely loose, lending the style a flowing, almost hand-woven feel. Very unusual. Next comes a retro plaid pattern highlighting expert, earthy color combinations. To us, the true star is hugely slubby yarns that feature an explosion of rainbow neps. Monster texture is the result. A tapestry of organic dots of color runs throughout the surface. Each shirt is unique. This is fabric art you can enjoy every day. 
This shirt is sewn up in our new Rugged style. It's designed to be the perfect style for our heavier, more rustic fabrics we run. It's a bit more casual, without being over the top. This style is set off by two key design cues: a perfectly sized collar without buttons and two clean button closures on rounded chest pockets. These two elements lend the style a more casual look while their clean implementation keeps the shirt versatile. A simpler back yoke replaces the box pleat and locker loop of our Classic style. Intricate stitching tacks down the collar stand. The Rugged style inherits the same core fit block from the updated Classic style. The moment we sewed up some flannels and heavy jacquards in this style we knew it was right.

Customer Feedback on #1208 RAINBOW NEP RUSTIC WOOL SHIRT - STEEL
"This is a beautiful shirt. I’ve never seen or worn anything quite like it. It’s a bit more rugged than I was anticipating, but that’s not a negative. It’s a nice thick, soft fabric and the color flecks are fantastic. My only criticism is that the buttons seem too small for the holes. The shirt fits perfectly, but whenever there is the slightest pressure on the buttons, they pop open. Usually the top button first. I think I can easily fox it with a small stitch to close the hole slightly. I’m somewhat curious if it’s just me. Not a big deal either way. Otherwise, this is a beautiful and unique garment that has already elicited compliments. One from my wife, who never says anything about my clothing!"
