Aviation Fabrics
Three shirtings, one line. Each was chosen for a different kind of duty day, and the differences between them are small enough to matter only once you are wearing them.
The Classic Line is the practical one. At 115 g/m² it is the lightest of the three, and its 45% polyester means it dries quickly and comes through a long rotation without creasing. It has no stretch.
The Micro Line is almost all cotton, 97% with 3% elastane. It is the softest against the skin and the one that reads most formally, and it is also the one that asks for an iron.
The Essential Line sits between the two. Organic cotton and recycled polyester, 128 g/m², the densest of the three and the least given to showing through under a uniform shirt worn on its own.
All three are dyed and made in Portugal. Buttons, labels and packaging are Portuguese.
