Description

A pared-back counterpart to the Technician Shirt, the Lester draws from the same 1940s workwear foundation. This iteration removes the flap pockets, creating a more traditional button-down silhouette while retaining the balanced proportions and utilitarian spirit of the original reference.

 

Named for Lester, a painting by Jamie Wyeth at the Brandywine Museum, the style takes inspiration from the subject’s understated yet distinct shirt and features a pointed vintage collar, triangle side gussets, and shirring at the cuffs rather than pleats–a construction detail emblematic of pre-1940s work shirts.

 

Cut here in a refined micro pinstripe cotton from Luigi Parisotto in Italy, the fabric offers a crisp, lightweight hand with a clean drape and subtle structure.

Main Fabric

Italian Cotton Micro Pinstripe

Italian Cotton Micro Pinstripe
Woven by Tessuti Parisotto, a family-run mill just outside Venice, this cotton shirting is pleasingly classic in character with a subtly playful wink. Founded in 1965, the mill draws on decades of expertise in natural fibers while prioritizing environmentally conscious practices that far exceed standard regulations. Made entirely in Italy, the mill oversees both prototyping and full-scale production, ensuring each fabric carries the precision and elegance that define the Parisotto name.
