The paisley motif on this Pure Blue Japan open collar shirt is a thing of beauty. It isn’t printed, but jacquard-woven using traditional looms. This slower weaving process creates a cloth of impressive complexity and tactile charm – subtle in certain lights, but sure to shine in others. The fabric’s indigo yarns will give up their pigments in the weave’s more raised portions, meaning this shirt’s paisley motif will only grow more pronounced as the shirt wears in.
