An ethnic-inspired crochet knit short-sleeve shirt in acrylic, in Blue, with a colour-matched pattern and a street-fashion silhouette. Five sizes, M to 3XL. One principle: the crochet shirt is the garment that carries the evidence of its own construction on its surface — every stitch visible, every loop intentional, every opening in the fabric a deliberate decision rather than an accident.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Craft\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrochet — \u003cem\u003ele crochet\u003c\/em\u003e — is the craft that gives La Maille its surface and its distinction. Crochet is the technique of interlocking loops of yarn using a single hook, creating a fabric that is simultaneously structured and open — the kind of fabric that breathes, that moves, and that carries the visual evidence of the hand that made it. The crochet construction of La Maille creates the open, textured surface that distinguishes it from every woven or knitted shirt in the wardrobe: the pattern of loops and openings that reads as intricate from a distance and precise up close. The ethnic-inspired pattern — \u003cem\u003emotif ethnique\u003c\/em\u003e — draws on the geometric and colour-matched traditions of global textile craft, creating a surface that references a broader world of making without belonging exclusively to any single tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Fabric\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcrylic — \u003cem\u003eacrylique\u003c\/em\u003e — is the fibre that gives La Maille its colour vibrancy and its durability. Acrylic is the synthetic fibre of choice for crochet and knit construction because it holds colour with the brightness and consistency that natural fibres cannot always match, resists pilling and stretching through repeated wear, and maintains the structure of the crochet stitch pattern through washing and use. The Blue of La Maille — \u003cem\u003ele bleu\u003c\/em\u003e — is the colour that reads as the most considered choice for the crochet shirt: deep enough to read as intentional, open enough to work across every season and every occasion that calls for a shirt that is not a plain shirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eShort sleeve, colour-matched pattern, ethnic-inspired silhouette — \u003cem\u003emanches courtes, motif assorti, silhouette ethnique\u003c\/em\u003e — is the construction that gives La Maille its summer authority. The short sleeve gives the shirt its warm-weather ease; the colour-matched pattern — where the crochet pattern is worked in tones that complement rather than contrast — gives the shirt its considered, unified surface; and the ethnic-inspired silhouette gives the shirt its cultural reference and its visual weight. La Maille is the shirt that is built from the stitch up — and wears like it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTechnique: Crochet knit — interlocked loop construction, open textured surface, stitch-visible craft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFabric: Acrylic — colour-vibrant, durable, stitch-stable, wash-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePattern: Colour-matched ethnic-inspired — geometric, tonal, globally-referenced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleeve: Short sleeve — warm-weather correct, full-range-of-motion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Blue — deep, considered, season-spanning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle piece: Shirt only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable sizes: M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChest (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLength (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShoulder (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSleeve (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e108\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e68\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e112\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e116\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e72\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e48\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2XL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e74\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e49\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3XL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e124\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e76\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTip: La Maille is a crochet knit construction — the fabric has natural stretch and give.

Wear it alone with Le Large in Black or Brown for the most considered shirt-and-trouser approach — the crochet surface and the wide-leg trouser create the most deliberate proportion. Wear it with L’Ensemble shorts for the most effortless summer approach. Layer it under La Soie Glacée worn open for the most textural layered approach — the crochet surface visible through the ice silk overshirt. La Maille is built for the man who understands that the most interesting shirt in the room is the one that carries the evidence of how it was made — and wears that evidence with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Millivan","offers":[{"title":"Blue \/ 2XL","offer_id":51561314550074,"sku":"CJDS241561204DW","price":18000.0,"currency_code":"KES","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ 3XL","offer_id":51561314582842,"sku":"CJDS241561205EV","price":18000.0,"currency_code":"KES","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ L","offer_id":51561314615610,"sku":"CJDS241561202BY","price":18000.0,"currency_code":"KES","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ M","offer_id":51561314648378,"sku":"CJDS241561201AZ","price":18000.0,"currency_code":"KES","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ XL","offer_id":51561314681146,"sku":"CJDS241561203CX","price":18000.0,"currency_code":"KES","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/3088\/8250\/files\/e9e1282d-ca9f-4e1d-ab84-ed72e6957401.jpg?v=1751970287","url":"https:\/\/millivansupplies.com\/bm\/products\/la-maille","provider":"Millivan supplies ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
