The Washed Seersucker SS began its life as a super dark, bleeding indigo. Everyone's hands turned blue during sewing and so did the sewing machines because basically the shirt was leaking blue after an intense indigo dye. After sewing, we gave the baby a nice wash in a bath and removed the first couple layers of color which gives the shirt an incredible amount of depth and character from the first wear. It's only going to get better with time- but now, with the softness and without the bleeding, you can get started with enjoying summer.

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.
