Here are the colors I would like to do for the solids-

I would like to add some kind of red and have some rewards members vote or post some colors that they would like to see made.

Damn, #s 2 and 3 of the solids look killer. Will they be available with other collars?

I like the ombre gray one a lot. Will buy in a t shirt or sweatshirt.

1, 2, 3 of the solids are fantastic. Would love the gray, purple, and pink ombré in oxfords

The first two ombres would make cool t-shirts, although I'm a weirdo and only wear scoop / u-necks.

Here are some ideas for the ombré poplin and oxfords. I also thought it would be cool to make some tees this way.

I like the green the best. Kinda unique while also having a spring vibe. The pink/blue and purple/white are nice too.

+1 on ombre t-shirts

Scoop/U Neck would be awesome

Mauro, these two shirts look killer. Can you provide some insight into what the details of these are? First one looks like a washed all cotton pique type of material, second one looks like chambray or a linen blend?

There were some denim looking linen shirts posted a few months ago. I want to see those made.

If anyone hasn't clicked on this image to see the full-size version, the texture on this thing looks insane:

I'm also drawn to those pastel blues and purples (and reds) with some texture to the fabric. On a similar note, I did an experiment with my sea blue bamboo/sorona tee. It was a bit too bright for my liking, so I used 'Dharma Dyehouse Color Remover' that I had left over from indigo dying. The results were crazy, the moment it went in the pot it went to bright purple, then faded slowly into a charcoal gray over a minute or two. Then it changed into a brown that turned into pumpkin orange, and I pulled it out at a shade of beige since the blotchiness was gone. Then, as I hung it on the line to dry, it changed once last time from beige to this light pastel green. I really like the color, and would love to see some more tees in these subtle hues. Ecru and a washed out red would be nice.

The texture is neat. It's an open weave. Monti, the creators of the fabric are really pushing it. It's a summer shirt for sure.

The first shirt is not a pique in the traditional sense. Think of it more like a grenadine tie. It's 100% cotton that we have treated to give it a specific look. When I find my swatch card I will show your what the fabric looks like before wash. It's totally different. Not just in look but in feel. The stormy blue gray is a a treated linen that went through similar treatments like the green shirt.

Thanks for changing my designs, lol. That was a cool experiment. The tee fits you perfectly. I spoke with my supplier that knits my bamboo sorona. He is going to make me some special fabric. For this Spring/Summer I will use 135 gram like always. However, for fall I am having a 225/250 gram heavy weight. That's a nice little jump from the 175gram I was using. Considering the properties of the cloth a 225/250 will make a crucial layering piece. He is also making me bamboo sorona "French Terry" for sweatshirts and sweat pants....... game over, I win.
