Elliot | Hooded Linen Shirt with a Button Placket

Every man ends up with one shirt he reaches for without thinking. Elliot makes a fair case for the job: an airy linen weave, a hood with a drawstring at the neck, and a button placket you can leave undone over a tee. On a mild afternoon it is all you need; when the air sharpens, it works just as well as the layer that goes over something warmer.

Why You'll Love It

✓ An Open Linen Weave — The linen cloth breathes and hangs loosely rather than clinging, and it softens further with every wash.

✓ Hood Instead of a Collar — A soft drawstring hood sits where a stiff collar usually does, which is a good deal more useful when the wind picks up.

✓ Wear It Open or Closed — The button placket lets you fasten it as a shirt or leave it hanging open as a light jacket over a tee.

✓ Sleeves That Roll and Stay — Turn the cuffs back a few times and they hold, without slipping down over your hands halfway through the afternoon.

✓ Cut With Room to Move — Generous through the chest and shoulders, so reaching up to a top shelf does not pull the whole shirt out of shape.

✓ Layers Without Bulk — Thin enough to go under a quilted jacket on a cold morning without crowding the sleeves.

The kind of shirt that ends up living on the back of the chair, because you keep needing it.

Fit: Easy and unrestrictive through the body in a light linen weave, straight through the hem, with a hooded neckline and a half-button front.
