Katin Plume Shirt, a cotton chambray button up with floral dobby detail
The Katin Plume Shirt is built from cotton chambray, a fabric that creates a subtle texture across the shirt. It is finished with a custom floral clipped dobby design and cut in a standard fit, giving it a shirt that reads as stylish while staying easy to wear.
What it is made of
- 100% cotton chambray
- Floral clipped dobby weave
- Left chest pocket
- Button up front
- Clean finished interior seams
The clipped dobby weave is what produces the subtle floral texture in the fabric itself rather than a printed pattern, and the clean finished interior seams keep the shirt comfortable against the skin.
Who this shirt is for
This short sleeve button up suits men who want a shirt that moves easily from a day on the water to dinner out. In South Florida, a breathable cotton chambray shirt like this works well left open over a tee at the beach or buttoned up for a boat outing or evening plans, with the left chest pocket handy for keys or sunglasses.
Wearing and caring for it
- Machine wash cold to protect the chambray weave and dobby detail
- Tumble dry low to help the cotton hold its shape
- Button the shirt fully or wear it open over a tee depending on the occasion
Because chambray is a woven cotton rather than a knit, it holds a crisper look wear after wear when dried on a low, gentle cycle.
The Katin story
Katin was founded in 1954 when Nancy and Walter Katin opened a small boat cover business called Kanvas by Katin in Surfside, California, just north of Huntington Beach. Raised along the California coast, Katin became a staple of Southern California surf culture and holds the title of one of California's first brands to make surf trunks, a heritage reflected in the craftsmanship of shirts like the Plume.
