A 1954 French Air Force indigo metis shirt.
Deadstock arrival.
A piece that makes generous use of indigo metis—both highly sought and rarely found among French vintage items.
The fabric composition appears to be approximately 80% cotton and 20% linen.
True to military shirt tradition, it features epaulettes and breast pockets. Given its history as an actual military issue garment, its functionality is beyond question.
The color harmonizes well not only with French vintage pieces but with contemporary items as well, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe.
The fabric is capable of developing a distinctive patina over time—part of the pleasure lies in stewarding its evolution with your own hands.
A golden size that suits the Japanese physique, accommodating a wide range of body types.
As deadstock, its condition is impeccable—an ideal choice for those seeking pristine examples.
Fine shirts of this vintage grow scarcer each year. If you have been searching, this may well be the moment.
