Additional Information
- Story
- A button down shirt made with our Blazed Cotton fabric and sewn into a slim fit with our patent pending Pivot Sleeve. The result is a slim silhouette that won’t restrict how you move. Custom Italian Mombosa buttons and a front chest pocket round out the classic look while the Nano-Tex® treatment makes for a clean and comfortable shirting that resists dirt and sweat. Simply a cleaner, leaner shirt for every day use.
- Fabric
A cleaner take on traditional cotton shirting. An openpoint oxford cotton fabric blazed with a high tech treatment that emulates the self-cleaning properties of a lotus leaf. The result is a soft, clean shirting that repels dirt and sweat, leaving you looking sharp and professional no matter how hard you push yourself.
We call the fabric an openpoint oxford cloth because it utilizes a traditional oxford basketweave but with low twist yarns which make for a more breathable shirting. These low twist yarns perfectly counterbalance the blazing process which adds a Nano-Tex® treatment to the fiber. The result is an improved Blazed Cotton; a fabric that breathes and absorbs well enough to be extremely comfortable yet is hydrophobic enough that sweat almost never shows through the fabric.- Details

PIVOT SLEEVE
US 20120102618 A1 Patent Pending
Sometimes you don't know what's restricting you until you are set free. The Patent Pending Pivot Sleeve was born trying to solve what we thought was an isolated problem, but the solution turned out to have far wider uses. It's quite simply a button up shirt designed to give you a wider range of motion, and in the process it also manages to both fit and stay in place better as well.
It started out rather innocently, we wanted to create
a dress shirt using traditional non-stretch shirting
fabrics that didn't bind at the shoulders and across
the back when we leaned forward on our bikes. We
studied everything we could get our hands on,
various tailored shirts, mountain climbing jackets
and even the gear that George Mallory used in his
fatal yet stylish attempt to summit Mount Everest in
the 1920's. Ironically we probably learned the most
from a couple overpriced high fashion shirts we
bought on clearance in the depth of the financial
crisis of 2008.
A year later, when the smoke had cleared and the experimentation was done, we found we had created something that was genuinely new (at least to the extent of our knowledge and research), the Outlier Patent Pending Pivot Sleeve.
A one piece sleeve that flows seamlessly into the
back of the garment, creating a rear side panel in
the process. The pattern piece for the sleeve
becomes L-shaped. At the critical pivot point at the
shoulder the fabric lies on the bias, naturally
stretching exactly where it is most useful. Removing
the rear arm seam prevents the shirt from both
binding across the back and pulling untucked when
you move your arms, so you both look sharper and are
more comfortable. Finally the rear side panels allow
for a much more refined shaping of the shirt than
traditional constructions. A dress shirt designed to
look better, fit better and allow you to move
without restriction.
