Universal Works Road Shirt Arten Seersucker Ecru

The Universal Works Road Shirt in Ecru Arten Seersucker provides a fresh, breathable solution for warm-weather dressing. This shirt addresses the challenge of staying cool and comfortable during the summer months without sacrificing a sharp, put-together appearance. By using a specialised seersucker fabric, the material naturally sits away from the skin, allowing for superior airflow and a lightweight feel that lasts throughout the day.

Style, Fit and Sizing Recommendations

• This shirt is cut to a regular, relaxed fit that provides a comfortable and airy silhouette.
• Here at the store we recommend choosing your usual size for a standard look, or sizing up if you prefer a more oversized, contemporary drape.
• The straight hem design makes it particularly well-suited for wearing untucked over chinos or shorts.
• The lightweight nature of the fabric ensures it layers easily under a light jacket or overshirt without feeling restrictive.

Washing and Care Instructions

• Machine wash at 30 degrees on a gentle cycle to protect the delicate seersucker texture.
• Wash with similar light colours to maintain the depth of the ecru hue.
• Do not tumble dry, instead allow the garment to air dry naturally to avoid shrinkage.
• This fabric is naturally crinkled by design, so ironing is generally not required, helping you save time on maintenance.

Universal Works Road Shirt - Our FAQs

1. Does the seersucker texture fade after washing? The texture is woven into the fabric itself, meaning it will retain its signature puckered look even after multiple washes.

2. Is this shirt see-through because it is lightweight? No, the ecru colourway and the density of the weave ensure the shirt remains opaque while staying very light.

3. Can the collar be worn closed? Yes, the loop-button at the top allows you to fasten the collar fully for a more formal or secure appearance.
