Working with our decade-long shirting partner Somelos, we're able to create a fully European linen fabric. Cultivated in France, the flax fiber is spun in Lithuania, before weaving and finishing at Somelos' facilities in Northern Portugal. From there the fabric travels less than an hour to our specialized shirt factory, Mundicorte, for cutting and sewing.
