Description
Made in Portugal
Our maxi-fit shirt, Tiki. Made in an incredible pure noil silk fabric woven by the artisanal mill Kowa in Japan. Made with a slubby Thai silk yarn, and woven with artisanal skill, this particular fabric combines an organic texture with elegant drape and movement.
Noil silk is produced with the shorter silk fibres that are left over from production of other silk fabrics. Spun together these differing fibre lengths give the silk yarn a rougher texture, and a matte finish compared to the sheen from continuous silk fibres. Stronger than cotton, noil silk features a heavy fluid drape and has excellent temperature regulating properties, breathing and keeping you cool and dry in hot weather and warm in cold climates.
Tiki is designed with a generous straight cut, featuring a clean front placket, box pleat at the back yoke, curved hem, and pleats at cuff. Mother of pearl buttons at cuffs and placket.

Love & Care
Caring properly for your garment is an important task in prolonging its life. Take care of your garment, and treat it with love & care, and it will last longer.
Read our Care guide for a complete run-through.
Machine wash
Turn inside out, and carefully follow the washing instructions attached to the garment. Wash with similar colours without any fabric softener with a gentle cycle. Do not tumble dry, and stretch inseams while damp to maintain preferred length. May shrink up to 3% depending on how many degrees. Hand wash is always recommended for minimal shrinkage and damage to the material.
Stain Removal
Got stains on your garment? There are a few little hacks for making the most of a piece of clothing that’s damaged for good. Vinegar and baking soda are good to add to the washing machine to boost a load, or to use diluted with water as a pre-soak before putting the garment in the washer. For oil and make-up – dish soap is super effective for getting stains out of fabrics of every colour. If it is beyond fixable, stained tees and tank tops can always be used for layering underneath sweaters in the winter, stained jeans can be turned into cut-off shorts, and stained dresses can be layered with a scarf or a sweater.
Repair your garment
After continuous wear your garment might need some extra maintenance. No worries! Contact a local tailor and get it repaired. If you have none, we will gladly help you out! Please read our Repair Service & Repair Policy for more information.
