VIP exclusive. Workwear roots, rendered with uncommon finesse—the Foundry Shirt takes its cues from vintage factory uniforms, updated here in a limited-edition lightweight cotton-linen cloth milled in Japan by Shuttle Notes. Subtle nep texture runs through the fabric, giving it a quiet, irregular character that reveals itself up close and deepens with wear. It’s a shirt designed for movement and daily use—practical in origin, considered in execution.

Woven in Japan by the artisans at Shuttle Notes, this 4.5-oz. cotton-linen blend balances breathability with a gently textured hand. The Shadow Nep finish introduces natural variation across the surface, lending depth without distraction. Washed for softness and finished with durable double-needle felled seams to ensure longevity through years of wear.

Shuttle Notes Woven in Japan

The fabrics in this shirt were woven in Japan by Shuttle Notes, a textile house founded in 1948 and known for its use of traditional shuttle looms. Unlike modern high-speed weaving machines, shuttle looms feed a continuous yarn across the loom. This slower process places less stress on the fibers and allows the yarns to retain their natural character—resulting in fabrics with rich texture, durability, and subtle variation.
