It is crafted from lightweight cord, making it ideal for mild weather or cooler summer evenings, though it may be too warm for peak high-temperature days.
It is recommended to hang-dry the shirt to maintain the integrity of the needle cord fabric.
The '21W' refers to the number of wales (ridges) per inch. 21W is considered a 'needle cord,' meaning it has a very fine, tight texture that is lighter and more flexible than traditional chunky corduroy.
The shirt features a regular fit. If you prefer a loose, overshirt style, you may consider sizing up, otherwise, your standard size should provide a comfortable silhouette.
Like all cotton garments, it is best to wash inside out and dry away from direct sunlight to minimize any potential color fading over time.
Use a garment steamer on the reverse side of the fabric to smooth out creases without flattening the corduroy pile.
Ensure you are using the correct water temperature and consider a gentle shake before hang-drying to fluff the corduroy fibers.
To ensure the longevity of your Passenger Backcountry Cord Light Shirt, proper laundry habits are essential. Always wash the garment at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius to prevent the cotton fibers from shrinking or becoming brittle. Avoid using high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the texture of the needle cord; instead, reshape the garment while damp and allow it to hang-dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. The regular fit is compatible with most standard sizing, though if you intend to use it primarily as an overshirt, consider layering it over light base garments to prevent pulling at the seams.
