  • Care

Named after the city that once formed the beating heart of the Silk Road, nomadic horsemen would have rested here on their journey from Asia to trade hemp with the Europeans.

A versatile shirt, the explorer can be worn on active duty throughout the day or smartened up with chinos when required. 

  • Softens with each wash
  • Will crumple lightly (not as much as linen)
  • Quarter placket, breast pocket and a classic collar for a versatile look
  • 100% biodegradable fabric
  • Arrives gift-wrapped
  • Made in Hanoi, Vietnam

Our shirts are cut to a 'gentleman's fit', which is loose-fitting, but slightly tailored at the waist to remove excess bagginess.

We recommend you choose your shirt based on chest.

Model is 6'2", slim, and wearing an M. 'Size guide' (above) refers to body measurements.

  • Wash at no more than 40°C
  • First wash separately
  • Iron whilst damp

FAQ

What does hemp feel like to wear?

Hemp has a slightly firmer texture than cotton at first with the allure of fine, but heavier, linen. Softening quickly with washing and wear it becomes more breathable and comfortable over time, ideal for everyday use.

Will this item shrink or change after washing?

Hemp can shrink slightly if washed at high temperatures. To keep your garment looking and feeling its best, please follow the care guidelines listed above.

How do I choose the right size?

Please refer to the 'Size & Fit' tab and 'Size Guide' feature above. If you’re between sizes or unsure, we recommend sizing up.

How long will this piece last?

Hemp is one of the most durable natural fibres. With proper care, our clothing is made to last for years.
