Summer Retro Madras Button Down

This item is final sale and not eligible for return or exchange.

Mixing the worlds of ikat and plaid, the Summer Retro Madras is summertime wonderment packaged. This super complex shirt mixes teal, mustards, random pink stripes (!?), and a grey ikat to create a vibrant, classy shirt that is equal parts 1950s, 1970s, and right now. The shirt pairs perfectly with jeans, khakis, or a solid bathing suit. Some plaids make you feel alive, and others, well, like a man who has given up. So if you're still up for it, there's natural electricity to this shirt and I hope that you feel it.

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.
