FAQ: What was a Madras shirt?

A Madras shirt is a type of short-sleeved Madras shirt crafted from 100% cotton fabric known for its vibrant Madras plaid patterns. Originating from the city of Chennai, formerly known as Madras, these cotton button-down shirts gained popularity due to their colorful designs, lightweight feel, and casual appeal. Ideal for men seeking stylish yet comfortable attire, Madras shirts have become synonymous with relaxed summer fashion.

Why are Madras shirts popular?

Madras shirts have soared in popularity due to their distinctive features. Made from 100% cotton, these Madras plaid shirts offer unmatched comfort and breathability, perfect for warm weather. Their colorful patterns and casual vibe make them a favorite choice for men seeking to add flair to their wardrobe. Moreover, the heritage associated with Madras fabric adds to their appeal, making them a timeless classic in men's fashion.

Do Madras shirts shrink?

While Madras shirts are predominantly crafted from 100% cotton, a fabric known to shrink under certain conditions, proper care can minimize this risk. By following care instructions such as washing in cold water and avoiding high heat when drying, you can maintain the integrity of your Madras shirts.
