    Dad’s Shirt | Loinnir Pink

    £495.00
    Ready to ship
    Made to order
    Out of stock
    Model is 5'8.5", UK 8, wears S

    Our Dad's Shirt began with Amy borrowing her own dad's shirts. This season, its familiar, generous shape takes on Loinnir Pink: a bespoke pink Irish linen made for Kindred, beetled until it sparkles.

    The finish gives the cloth a crisp, sculptural character and a surface that catches the light. It holds the relaxed, longer shape beautifully, from collar to hem. A borrowed shirt with rather different plans for the evening.

    Wear it buttoned to the top with the matching Dad's Tie, which attaches by a button to hold it in place. Add the Bow Skirt in Loinnir Pink for the full pink silhouette.

    The cloth

    Loinnir Pink.
    Loinnir means sparkle.

    Our own pink Irish linen, beetled until it catches the light.

    The pink was made for us, then taken to Upperlands, to the last beetling mill in the world. There the linen is wound on a wooden beam and struck by wooden hammers, again and again, until the weave closes and the surface begins to shine. The sparkle comes from the hammering, not from any finish.

    That crispness holds a shape away from the body and lets the light run along every fold: the gathered sleeves of the Anointed Coat, the double layers of the Bow Skirt, the long line of Dad’s Shirt. It is the signature pink of Kept for Good.

    Every piece is cut and sewn in Belfast by one of our sewists, who sees it through from the first cut to the last stitch.

    We keep our making close to home on purpose. Belfast was once the linen capital of the world, and the skills that built it are rare now. Making here is how we keep them alive.
