South2 West8 - Patchwork Madras Shirt

South2 West8 is part of the mighty Nepenthes family of brands, designed in Japan. Inspired by fishing and hunting garb, they utilise bold fabrics in combination with utilitarian design to deliver garments that are completely unique.

Madras is a very traditional Indian textile, handwoven with yarns dyed with natural pigments. The result of such hand-crafting is a fabric that is "guaranteed to bleed" (as Brooks Brothers marketed it in the 60s) and produce the incredible muted tones you see here. Patchwork Madras gained popularity soon after for its loud aesthetic, all while being a fantastic use of scrap fabrics.

By using the fabric for a no-thrills, simple button-up shirt, they let the incredible textile shine! It features a front button closure and a single chest flap pocket.
