{"product_id":"brushed-collar-wide-shirt-off-white-linen-wool","title":"Brushed Collar Wide Shirt - Off White Linen\/Wool","description":"\u003cp\u003eBased in a quiet rural town in Japan’s northern Iwate Prefecture, Gorsch is a small and hard-to-find brand that takes immense pride in its region and craft. The brand’s name comes from the story “Gauche the Cellist,” which can be summarized (very roughly) as the tale of a young man who works hard to become more skilled at playing the cello. Gorsch the brand tells a similar story, about a young man who finds his grandfather’s old sewing tools, and upon learning that his relative used to be a tailor, Gorsch sets off to learn the craft himself, with hard work, dedication, and a loving-nostalgia towards his hometown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn actuality, there is no Gorsch the person — the brand is run by Eiichi Suzuki, an Iwate native who lives and runs his brand from a quiet town nestled under the mountains. His grandfather was actually a tailor, too, but Eiichi didn’t learn this until after he started Gorsch. Before that, he worked as a diplomat for some time, and lived between several major cities around the world, including New York and Berlin, the latter of which continues to influence him to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGorsch’s clothing is somewhere between antique workwear and tailoring. Though often unique and clearly inspired by vintage styles, the garments are shockingly versatile and very easy to wear, with some of the most flattering and comfortable cuts we’ve ever encountered. Few brands do “unisex” clothing as well as Gorsch, with pieces that look incredible on an extremely wide range of different bodies and body-types. The materials fit the design and construction, using beautiful and rare deadstock fabrics as well as custom and locally-produced textiles, it’s easily one of our most elevated and special brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Autumn\/Winter 2026 collection is part 2 of their 14th release saison, titled “The Dancing People” — inspired by dancers Ken Sakagami and Aoi Kagaya, friends of the brand who perform locally in Iwate with their company, Bazar Cirque. The styles and fabrics are really outstanding this season, with rich, plush textiles, exaggerated silhouettes, and spectacular drape that emphasizes movement but sits comfortably and naturally when at rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wide Silhouette Open Collar Shirt is a relaxed button-up with a spread point collar and and a loose, flow-y fit through the body. The unique collar shape is an inside joke between the designer and himself, born from a sewing mistake that he only noticed after the fact, and then traced into all future models of this shirt. It features a single chest pocket, with a button placket and curved shirttail hem — the construction is all single-needle, using tonal white thread for an invisible finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's woven from a plush linen\/wool fabric that feels almost akin to a cotton flannel, despite containing no cotton at all. Soft, fuzzy, and immediately comfortable, the fabric breathes and insulates remarkably well given the 90% linen and 10% wool blend, making for a great layering piece in the colder seasons. The off white yarns feature very subtle tonal differences, resulting in a natural variation across the face of the fabric, pairing well with the more relaxed weave to give a natural and handmade impression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits true to size with a relaxed body.
