Tender Co. Type 439 Stole Pocket Butterfly Shirt | Black Hole Doppler Stripe

€360.00

Coming from Tender’s first collection made in the USA, the Stole Pocket Butterfly Shirt does things a little differently.

Long panel pockets run down the front and tuck neatly into the shoulder seam - a nod to the stoles worn by Christian priests and bishops (we’re Irish after all). The pockets can be accessed at the side, doubling as discreet hand warmers. Cut on Tender’s Butterfly block, the shirt has no side seams and features reversed sleeves joined at the shoulder for a clean, fluid shape. Unlike previous butterfly shirts, cuffs open with full tailored plackets behind the wrist, so rolling them up is both practical and satisfying. The buttons are real shell, styled after a classic cat-eye button, and every stitch is made with cotton thread - a small detail that quietly reminds you of the craftsmanship.

Doppler Stripe Cambric is woven on an ecru cotton warp with alternating ecru and olive green cotton weft yarns, arranged in a punched pattern inspired by the Doppler effect - that gentle shift in frequency as sound moves. The Black Hole dye plays nicely with the weave, settling into panels of navy and black that change with the light. This shirt is also available in wool calico, thunderbolt cotton cambric and clean cotton drill.

Tender Co. is the creation of designer William Kroll.

Tender specialises in rare techniques to produce very unique garments often using deadstock fabrics and natural dyes. All products are made in small runs. Tender garments have all been made in England until the brand relocated in 2025, shifting production to USA. Due to the engineering and ‘slow’ ethos behind the construction, each item can differ to the next, for a truly special piece.
