Our western-style CPO shirt, made from 12oz Japanese Wabash—a fabric with origins rooted in centuries-old workwear. To create this authentic Wabash, we individually rope-dye both the warp and the weft yarns (unlike traditional Wabash denim which would feature a natural or white weft) before weaving them into a twill fabric. The distinctive pattern is then bleached into the fabric post-weave, creating more contrast between the dots and the base colourway. This means that while the rope-dyed yarns are designed to fade and evolve with beautiful character, the signature Wabash dots remain prominent as the fabric ages. Being a CPO cut, this shirt offers a little more length in the body than our standard western cut, with oversized copper snap fastenings and additional side hand warmer pockets.
