Emanuele Maffeis Light Brown & Blue Cotton Flannel Madras Shirt

Discover the Emanuele Maffeis Light Brown & Blue Cotton Flannel Madras Shirt. Madras is one of those cloths that carries its origins visibly: a hand-woven cotton from the Chennai region of India, traditionally made in bright, irregular plaids where the colours bleed slightly into one another at the intersections of the weave, the result being a pattern with a warmth and spontaneity that machine-made cloth rarely produces. In light brown and blue the palette is more restrained than the classic madras combinations, the two tones working together with enough contrast to give the check character without the exuberance of a traditional multicolour plaid. The flannel construction adds an unexpected dimension: where madras is usually a lightweight summer cloth, the flannel finish gives this version a softer, slightly napped surface and a weight that extends its range into the cooler shoulder seasons, the cotton retaining the breathability of the original while the flannel hand making it considerably more comfortable in lower temperatures.

Emanuele Maffeis has an instinct for combining cloth traditions that have no obvious reason to meet and finding that they work. A madras flannel in this colourway is a good example: two references that belong to different seasons and different wardrobes, resolved into a single shirt that belongs to both.
