Idaho Bib front shirt Idaho Bib front shirt

A tux shirt feels commanding. You feel dressed. I love playing with how I wear a tux shirt. I’ll wear it with a bow tie and a cargo short and a loafer. It’s like the little black dress for men, an all rounder.

I thought of Matthew McConaughey when I designed this shirt. He wears a shirt exactly how I love to see a shirt worn. Untucked and the collar unbuttoned. I think the Idaho shirt is my favourite in the collection. It’s got bib front detailing which I have taken from a traditional tuxedo shirt, another favourite style of mine. I’ve used denim and chambray with this style. These are the hero fabrics for this look. I’ve used heavy denim stitching. In fact, I’ve used all the heavy denim treatments on this shirt you would usually use on a pair of jeans. There’s bleaching and enzyme washing which brings softness to the fabric. I’ve also used denim poplin. It’s an indigo dyed thread so the yarn is dyed and then it’s weaved in a way that it can be used for shirting.
