AAAAAlright, here's a seriously cool piece: A Folk chambray oxford, made of 58% cotton, 30% wool, and 12% linen. The fabric has a really interesting and pleasingly subtle pattern, and the material is a perfect weight. The elbows also have interesting patches that resemble selvedge lines, and one of the side gussets has a small white square stitched onto it.

I purchased this from a fashion PR fella, and he told me the shirt was only used in a promotional shoot. However, I suspect it was worn a handful of times, as there is a VERY slight darkening on the white of the neck area. Also, there is a tear on the button placket of the left sleeve, where the fabric is making a clean separation (see photo #2). However, I imagine that this is probably a quick and very easy fix for any tailor. Otherwise, I cannot find any other signs of wear. I myself have not worn the shirt out, as it's a bit slim on me.

It's tagged a size 2, which translates for Folk into a slim small. it is especially slim in the shoulders and waist, giving it a flattering, fitted look.

I really like this piece, and may just keep it if I don't get what I'm looking for it. Current price includes shipping in the CONUS. Hit me up, I'll entertain reasonable offers.

Measurements:

Shoulders: 16"
Chest: 38"
Length (top of collar to bottom of back hem): 31.25"
