The topic of how cotton affects the environment has come up for a couple of years now. Although it is a natural material, cotton requires large amounts of water and chemicals to produce cotton fabrics. There are also the human rights issues surrounding cotton that have been brought into the spotlight.
However, as a shirt making company, we depend on cotton. At Kamakura Shirts, we want to change the way we approach the production of our shirts while still considering the global environment. We want our customers to be at ease when they wear our shirts. And that is why we started to create a functional shirt for the shirt-wearers on the go, without compromising the quality of our products
The part of the fabric that comes into contact with the skin is made of 100% cotton, so the comfort and textures are not inferior to those of ordinary cotton shirts. The premium cotton from India and the luxurious cotton from Australia, which is known for its whiteness, is blended together to create an original cotton thread. We tested this fabric under the skin irritation test to check the formalin content and found the number to be small. Surprisingly, the number approaches the level required for a baby's underwear.
Usually, for wrinkle-resistant/easy care shirts, it is obtained by spraying chemicals such as special coating and/or resin on the surface of the fabric, but it causes the texture to feel rough and uncomfortable. However, the same easy-care fabric can be obtained by the structure of the thread itself.
*This shirt has not been ironed. Only washed and dried.
Although there is polyester, as the cotton is wrapped around the polyester thread, it has a gentle cotton texture that is not inferior to the comfort of regular cotton fabric. This is because we use 100% high-grade cotton and the very white Australian-made-cotton is blended with the outer cotton. This reduces the amount of bleach (chemicals) and amount of water used for cleaning. Fewer chemicals and less water.
Although cotton has a high water absorption rate, it takes time to dry. This PALPA® fabric dries three times faster than a cotton 100% shirt. This is because the outer cotton absorbs the moisture, and the polyester inside helps it dry fast. The effect is the same if you dry it in the room.

Exceptional shirt fitted and very nice shirt
I wanted these shirts to be perfect, but the Vintage Ivy adherence to the traditional 6 button placket is simply a button short: the shirt splays out at the tails, making it unwearable untucked and often inappropriate tucked in without an undershirt. Next time I'll go for another style in an Oxford -- maybe the NY fit.
I love these cashmere blend shirts for winters in Chicago. The "black" color on this one is a nice dark charcoal, which I think is better than a true black. My only recommendation for this shirt would be to change the buttons on the black version. The buttons are quite shiny, and I would prefer something more matte.
5'' 11', 175 lbs, broader shoulders, normal waist, slimmer arms, and the Large fits perfect! (I can't button the top button up but I would never with this shirt). Such a great indigo color, the weight is perfect, substantial enough but not heavy, and the collar is perfect.
My husband is 6’1” and weighs about 155 pounds..he found the shirt wearable but a bit too slim. He also wished that the shirt had a front pocket and he would have greatly preferred a no iron fabric.
