Overview

Casting heritage design into modern legend, the Crescent Shirt is as rugged as the generations of men who inspired it - built with the same intent that defined the garments worn by those who relied on their tools, their hands, and their equipment to hold together under sustained use.

A workwear and style icon for over 400 years, chambray shirts have brought character and capability to every frontier. The hard-wearing durability, breathability, and effortless style of chambray took it across the seven seas with the US Navy and throughout the wild west on railroads and horseback.

Inspired by the mechanic shirts of yesteryear, this iteration is cut from premium stretch chambray woven by legendary Nihon Menpu, a mill respected for preserving traditional shuttle-loom discipline while applying modern precision. At 8.5 oz, the fabric offers reassuring structure and abrasion resistance, while a restrained amount of stretch improves mobility through the shoulders and elbows during hands-on work. The result is a shirt that holds its shape, moves naturally, and improves with time.

Construction follows the same philosophy. Double- and triple-needle stitching reinforce high-stress seams, while a double-layer yoke adds strength across the upper back. An inset sleeve placket integrated into the elbow seam reduces bulk and minimizes strain where the garment bends most. A double-slot button throat latch allows the collar to be secured when leaning into the work - or left open when conditions allow. Finished with a clean barrel cuff and streamlined sleeve placket, the Crescent remains disciplined and functional throughout. 

Built from storied cloth and assembled with methods proven over decades, the Crescent is a modern expression of a garment that has always belonged to those who prepare, repair, and build - long before the road ever begins.

Natural Performance

The stretch chambray used in the Crescent Shirt is woven with a balanced construction that delivers durability, breathability, and long-term wear comfort. Subtle stretch improves mobility through the shoulders and elbows during hands-on work without compromising structure or recovery. The result is a fabric that holds its shape, breaks in naturally, and improves with use - true to the legacy of chambray as a working cloth.

Accessible Storage

Secure flap chest pockets with slotted-button closures protect essential items, while a discreet pen slot on the wearer’s left allows quick access without opening the pocket.

BUILT FOR WORK

A double-button throat latch secures the collar against debris and foreign objects—a time-tested solution long favored in trades where sparks and metal fragments are part of the work.
