Evan Kinori Band Collar Shirt Org. Cotton Typewriter Anthracite
Evan Kinori Band Collar Shirt Organic Cotton Typewriter Anthracite, a classic band collar shirt in a rich anthracite brown colorway.
The bandcollar shirt designed by San Francisco-based designer Evan Kinori. A regular fit bandcollar popover shirt featuring mother-of-pearl buttons, French seams, curved cuffs with two button closure and curved hem. The shirt comes in a regular cut with a dropped shoulder and a slightly longer body.
This densely woven papery plain weave cotton shirting began with the finest organic cotton, known as ultimate pima (organis sea island) that was grown at Alvarez Farms in New Mexico. The yarn was then spun by the legendary Taishoboseki, a leader in organic cotton spinning, and woven just outisde Osaka, Japan. The cloth was then sent to be dyed in Kyoto, Japan using a mix of 90% natural (cutch) and 10% conventional dye. This results in a subtle wobble in the color.
The relaxed elegance of this shirt allows it to be worn either formal with tailoring pieces, or casually dressed with a pair of chinos.
Evan Kinori is a American designer based in San Francisco, where is studio is based and the sampling and making of garments happens. I've been following Evan since he started out in 2015 and, in fact, I still have a copy of his very first newsletter in my inbox. Evan's calm approach to garment design and his overall feel for esthetics resonate deeply with my own views and values. His focus and dedication to designing a small, almost intimate, collection of versatile and functional pieces, are a pleasant shift away from modern-day bulk productions and ongoing collection cycles. If I were to choose one word that would describe Evan Kinori and his work, it would be: stillness.
