We use the most premium flannel fabric we could find. Ranging from 170 g/m2 to 200 g/m2 in weight, our fabric is durable yet has an extremely comfortable hand feel due to its dual side brushing. We also use high quality embroidery details, custom logo buttons and labels, and we match our plaid lines for a clean and modern look. We use triple needle stitching at critical seams, as well as a clean, reinforced finish on the inside of the shirt. Additionally, we have all of our shirts sewn right down the street from us here in San Francisco, California, where we are based. We definitely understand that our shirts are more expensive than shirts you can find at the mass market chains. Just keep in mind that other brands might have cheaper shirts, but they were likely produced overseas, using cheaper fabric and cheaper labor. Producing locally costs more, but it allows us to be hands on throughout the entire process, so that we can ensure that we deliver the best quality shirt to you.]]>

The main differences are that our Elli shirt is our midweight flannel (around 170 g/m2) with single chest pocket, and without elbow patches. Our Leon shirt is our heavyweight flannel (around 190-200 g/m2) with two flap closure chest pockets and elbow patches]]>
https://pladra.com/blogs/faq/13266341-i-just-received-my-shirt-but-it-is-bigger-than-what-i-was-expecting-should-i-get-a-smaller-size2014-03-26T23:00:00-07:002014-03-31T14:45:37-07:00I just received my shirt but it is bigger than what I was expecting. Should I get a smaller size?Scott EllisonAll of our shirts are made from 100% cotton, which means they will shrink when using a dryer on high heat. We took into account this fabric shrinkage when creating our patterns, making the shirts slightly larger. An unwashed Pladra may tend to fit slightly bigger and longer. When machine dried shirts on average shrink 1-2". We have done extensive research on our sizing and our shirts fit very close to standard sizing from other brands you would see in the market. So for example, if you normally wear a medium, we recommend getting a medium Pladra- while it may fit bigger before wash, it should fit you just right after standard laundry care. Feel free to check out our sizing page for more details.]]>

When will it be restocked?Scott EllisonWe constantly try to refresh our site with new colorways. Depending on the shirt, we may or may not restock that specific size or color. We are such a small company that we don't refresh our stock as often as other stores you may be used to, and it takes quite a long time to produce additional shirts once we are sold out. You can always email us and ask about a specific shirt and we can let you know.]]>

They are meant to get dirty, so we made sure that we used all washable fabrics, including our cotton flannel and our washable elbow patches. We do use 100% cotton, so your shirt will shrink. If you like the fit as is, before wash, we recommend washing in cold water and hang drying. If your shirt could shrink a bit, wash in warm water and tumble dry low or medium.]]>
