Workwear, or the military, two of the corner stones of menswear. And so we'd be stark staring mad not to include some sort of military shirt in our range. Bit of a strong comment, but that's how we feel. This one is a relaxed fit, and has chest pockets, with flap and button closures to keep bullets in.
It's heavy weight, obvs, 240g / 7oz - there's no point running into battle in your Mum's lightweight blouse no matter how hard you can swing a handbag.
It's 100% cotton drill, with tonal buttons, adjustable cuffs, a back yoke, and is quite rightly preshrunk to minimise shrinkage. So shout 'Charge,' and kick off.

Make a cup of tea, that's usually a good start, and then once you're ecstatically, (or even moderately) happy with your quote, we'll most likely want to get into a little detail, so if a chat is ok, an email to info@october.co.uk with a phone number and a convenient time for you is handy - (can also be done by email only, if you're the dark and silent type).
We will run through your garment choices with you, making sure they will all work well for your chosen print or embroidery method; look at garment sizing, perhaps the tried and tested 1/2/2/1 split across S/M/L/XL; talk about choice of inks, water based, solvent based, discharge, digital etc, and ensure you're aware of all the pros and cons and make the right chemical decisions. Print or embroidery colours will be agreed, with pantone references if you have them. We will check overall artwork sizes, any font sizes, line details, tonal dot issues, and consider artwork positions – is 8cm down from the neck agreeable for you Madam?
When we're all happy with all that, we will assemble all your stock, make your artwork films and screens, run an embroidery disk for approval if required, and then give the option of coming into the factory for a print day, (where we can play with ink colours, ink textures, and artwork positions), or, if you're a Moisture Farmer living on the planet Tatooine and the commute is a struggle, we can print or embroider your garment onto a sample, pop it on one of our top in house models, and email you a nice pic of exactly what you can expect to receive. Back neck woven labels and high definition badges we would post out to you before running the bulk. Essentially, checks and balances all the way, to keep you nice and safe.
