Description

Universal Works offers with the Dam Marl Work Shirt a warm and relaxed interpretation of the traditional work shirt. Its knitted construction gives it a soft and comfortable hand, while the heavily brushed surface creates a soft and slightly fuzzy appearance.

The Dam Marl is a medium-weight knit whose brushing partially obscures the construction of the fabric. This finish creates a slightly felted surface and helps blend the different colour tones together to produce a subtle marl effect.

The Work Shirt takes the functional codes of workwear with two patch chest pockets and a simple construction. Its one-piece collar is designed to be worn open, but can also be closed using a small loop located near the top button.

With its warm fabric and easy-to-wear volume, it works equally well as a shirt or a lightweight overshirt. It can be worn directly over a T-shirt or a lightweight shirt, or layered under a jacket when temperatures drop.

The Mid Brown colour brings a warm and natural brown tone, enhanced by the marl effect of the fabric and particularly suited to an autumn-winter wardrobe.

Fit

The Dam Marl Work Shirt has a Regular fit, offering enough room to be worn on its own or as an overshirt.

For a more fitted look, we recommend taking your usual size. If you intend to wear it as an overshirt over several layers, we recommend considering the next size up.

Why we selected it

We like the Dam Marl Work Shirt for its balance between the functional aesthetic of a work shirt and the comfort of a warm and brushed knit. Its texture gives it a distinctive presence while remaining easy to incorporate into everyday outfits.

The combination of a textured knit, details directly inspired by workwear and a fibre blend designed to provide warmth and comfort makes it an especially versatile piece, true to the approach of Universal Works.

The Mid Brown colour further enhances its character: a warm and natural brown that pairs easily with indigo denim, ecru, navy, olive or other earthy tones.
