We finally have our own linen shirt. Durable, ecological, and pleasant to wear. Nice and cool in the summer but not cold in the winter. To top it off, it looks damn nice and oozes that sexy frontier appeal, even when worn at the office.

You can wear Särmä Linen Shirt casually on top of your pants or in a bit more formal manner tucked in the pants. This isn't a super formal shirt but it is suitable for work if you aren't required to dress as a penguin.

This shirt is grey in color and made from 100% linen, that lovely traditional material that used to grow everywhere in Finland.

Why linen?

Some of you might wonder why linen. There are many very good reasons for that:

Breathable natural fiber

Linen is a breathable natural fiber that feels cool in the summer but not cold in the winter. It also wicks moisture away from the body. In other words, a true smart textile of ancient times.

Durable and comfortable

Linen is a very durable material. After all, it stems from an era prior to consumerism and twenty pointless annual fashion seasons. When you caress this shirt for the first time, you might feel a sting of doubt about how comfortable it could be on your smooth alabaster skin. Don’t worry. Linen will feel softer after each wash and it will become more and more pleasant in time. And it doesn't feel like chain mail or barbed wire even on the first time you wear it.

Ecological

When you are on the side of the good guys, you are fascinated by the ecological aspects of different materials. Linen grows even in rugged terrain, and it doesn't require irrigation or extensive fertilizing, or pesticides. Linen is also fully biodegradable. It is pretty cool to sell stuff that doesn't poison the whole planet. And it is even cooler to wear it.

Washing

Wash at 40°C (104°F) with like colors. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Don't leave the shirt in a wet lump after washing. Reshape it gently while still damp. Linen fabric will wrinkle when washed. You can iron the shirt but do it at max. 110°C (230 °F.

Because of the material, the fibers of the fabric can be compressed in the wash, making it look like the shirt has shrunk, which it hasn’t and it will return back to the right proportions by ironing. You can prevent the compression by soaking the shirt thoroughly before putting it in the machine. Don’t shove the machine full of laundry. Reshape the shirt gently while still damp. You can also iron the shirt if you want.

Sizing

Linen is pre-shrunk, so you don't have to take shrinkage into account when buying the shirt.

In the chart below, you can see the actual measurements are taken directly from the shirt itself: chest circumference, waist circumference, back length from base of the collar to the hem, and sleeve length from shoulder seam to cuff. The measurements below are NOT the recommended user's measurements, but measurements of the garment itself.

X-Small Regular 100 cm 90 cm 39 cm 67 cm 72 cm
Small Regular 108 cm 100 cm 41 cm 68 cm 73 cm
Medium Regular 116 cm 110 cm 43 cm 69 cm 74 cm
Large Regular 124 cm 120 cm 45 cm 69 cm 75 cm
X-Large Regular 132 cm 130 cm 47 cm 70 cm 76 cm

The size is somehow really wild. It's extremely short compared to the whole size of the shirt. Also slightly sad is the material of buttons. For such perinteinen shirt made from linen, the buttons shouldn't be from plastic.

Hello. Love the shirt. I am 191 cm tall and the 2XL fits ok. After a wash and inadvertent drying it has shrunk abit. Seems I would need a "long" option for size. Hang dry and love the feel of the shirt just that it is barely long enough to stay tucked in. Would buy another if it had a size option for longer cut. May end up buying another anyways as I like the shirt so much.

Fantastic shirt.
I wear these as they are or under my strichtarn UTV BDUs. Pretty good for tropical conditions where I live.

Figured out how to get around the size shrinkage. Gently stretch and reshape post wash and give it an iron whilst gently stretching some more while the fabrics warm. Pay particular attention to the sleeves, hem and chest area.

Excellent shirts.

這是這家店我買過最糟糕的產品。我買了2XL。。。身體部分很短,上臂很小,捲不起來。。。這個是給小孩的嗎?太離譜了 這是L size ,襯衫領口的布料造型無法站立,這是T恤? 根本崩了 只值10歐
This is the worst product I have ever purchased from this store. I bought 2XL. . . The body part is very short and the upper arms are very small and cannot be rolled up. . . Is this for kids? It’s outrageous. This is L size. The shape of the fabric at the collar of the shirt cannot stand. Is this a T-shirt? It’s completely broken. It’s only worth 10 euros.

The fabric felt great even right out of the box, the fit was wonderful (so I guess maybe they've changed those issues the other reviews were having?) and the linen was absolutely wonderful on hot days. It's like you're always in the shade!

So I really wanted to love this shirt. And in many aspects it absolutely delivers. The fabric is nice and sturdy and I couldn't find a fault in the construction. The sleeves are long enough for my longer than average arms. If we stopped at that, it'd be an excellent shirt.

To get the sizing out of the way: I am a big guy, not american big, but a stocky, burly european, about 1,81m and 117kg. The XL fits just fine, on the slimmer side.

So why only three and a half stars? The cut (apart from the sleeve length) has room for improvement. For one, the sleeves are cut slim. It is impossible to roll them up past my forearms while wearing the shirt, so I have to pre-roll them before I put it on.
The main peeve for me is the length. I do not know how they photographed it, but the shirt does definitely not cover my butt like in the pictures. The last button is about navel-height, so there is not much material left to keep the shirt tucked, should I find myself in an environment where such a thing is required.
If this doesn`t bother you, go ahead and order the shirt, because otherwise it is excellent.

Todella hyvä paita. Värivaihtoehtoja voisi olla lisää tulevaisuudessa.

Aivan loistava lisäys vaatevalikoimaan ja istuu myös naiselle. Mielestäni tällainen pellavapaita pitää ehdottomasti saada myyntiin myös pellavan värisenä, eikä mustakaan olisi huono. Ostaisin ne tämän harmaan kaveriksi varmasti. Lisäättehän värit valikoimaan, please?

This shirt needs pleats in the back, like most business shirt have, to allow freedom of movement despite unstretchable fabric (poplin usually).
