A heavy linen worn as a jacket: three patch pockets, a shirt collar, no lining.
Choose a size first.
The one layer most people need between May and October. A 280 gsm linen is heavy enough to be a jacket and still breathes like a shirt. Shirt collar, five corozo buttons, two big patch pockets at the hip and one at the chest, no lining and no shoulder padding. Unisex and cut to go over a shirt.
Heavy linen is stiff for the first two or three wears and then relaxes a lot - it is the garment in the range that changes most between the box and the end of the summer. The ink colour will transfer a little onto a white shirt collar early on.

Worn first. Every piece in the range was worn through a summer by somebody here before it was listed. What it did in that time - creasing, fading, pilling, softening - is written in the description above, not left for you to find out.
Orders of €100,00 or more ship free; below that it is €5,50. One to two working days in Spain and Portugal, two to four for most of the EU.
Anything unworn, with the size tab still attached, can come back within 30 days. Seams and buttons are repaired at our cost for 3 years. The full policy.
From 167 people who bought the Linen Overshirt and were asked about it a month later.
Ordered by my waist measurement rather than a letter and the fit was right first time. The cloth weight on the page is a genuinely useful number.
Second order. The sizing is identical between the shirt and the overshirt, which is the thing most shops get wrong.
Creases exactly as much as the description says it will, which is a lot. I knew that going in. Softer after two washes than it was out of the box.
This piece is cut on the unisex block. Lay a top you like flat, measure across the chest under the arms, and compare.
