The black linen cotton is your wonderful summer linen shirt right out of the bag. We've all had that linen shirt that you hope will one day break down and actually be comfortable, but it never does and you keep the shirt because you love it in concept but you're not willing to wear cardboard all summer so that the shirt can feel nice in October. Let's face it, you're clothing shouldn't be a job unto itself - that's our fucking job, and we need this job - so let us do the work and break down the linen so that you are breezy and sexy from day one. This specifically milled linen-cotton blend gets you the best of both worlds. Washed and soft from the first and lofty enough to become your summer go-to. Clearly this shirt will be best worn with all of your summertime happiness: sand, sun, joy - you know, that sort of thing. The perfect black linen shirt is the thing we all need and forget that we don't have in our closet. We don't usually focus on staples (usually just the fringe stuff to make you prick up), but this is one of those that is really hard to find.

What does responsibility mean? People talk a lot about transparency and sustainability. I think the sum is responsibility. For Corridor, this means that we actually work in the factory with the tailors every season to create the garments and ensure the workshops are environmentally certified (ISO 9001) and socially accountable (SA 8000). You can feel good knowing where and how the garment was made.

This garment was a made in 3rd generation, open air workshop with on site day care, garden, paying a living wage to the artisans who made the goods. The workshop is located in Madras, India and melds the new (Japanese sewing machines) and the old (hand embroidery, hand loomed fabrics, natural dying) for a product that is authentic and contemporary. This is a mostly woman operated factory and is partnered with a rehabilitation center for women encountering domestic violence. We work out of the workshop for approximately two months of the year.
