Dark Brown S120 Wool BD Shirt is woven from Reda’s Active Merino — a fine Super 120s wool engineered to wear like a shirt rather than a traditional knit, with Alessandro Gherardi’s own oversized button-down collar.

Its merino wool construction makes it a genuine three-season shirt: breathable enough to wear alone, with enough warmth to layer undevr a jacket once AW26 turns colder.

Alessandro Gherardi learned his craft over twenty years at Tiber Camiceria before opening his own atelier in Italy, now run alongside his sons, brother, nephews and nieces. Every shirt is still entirely handmade — cut, sewn, buttonholed and finished by hand — and the house is best known for its own take on the button-down: a deliberately oversized, four-finger collar the brand calls the “XH”, worn open or buttoned down, that sits apart from the standard three-finger collar used almost everywhere else.

As a fine merino wool, we’d recommend dry cleaning rather than machine washing to keep its shape and softness.
