    Provenance

    Provenance
    Fibre History, Weaving

    Used in the construction of tailored men's shirts since the late 1700s, cotton offers superior comfort, durability and versatility. Cotton is hypoallergenic meaning it is gentle on skin and is non-irritative while its moisture-wicking properties allows your skin to 'breathe' and keep its cool.

    Founded in Lancashire, England, in 1796 by Sir Thomas Mason, Thomas Mason cloth was favoured by the shirt makers of Jermyn Street and, later, tailors of Savile Row, because of its superior drape and quality. The Bergamo-based Albini family purchased the business, including its swathe of archive materials, in 1992, and has maintained its premium reputation. Thomas Mason has ISO 14001:2015 certification, considered the global standard for environmental management. It is solar and wind energy-powered and omits less than 6000 tons of CO2e annually.
