With the evenings getting darker and the day temperatures beginning to drop, it’s time to start thinking about your winter wardrobe. At Acorn Fabrics, we’ve got a fantastic range of shirting that’s ideal for the season – made from fabric bound to keep you warm. Our country fabrics and country checks range is made from brushed cotton and wool blends. While practical, the designs and colours of our winter fabrics are on trend too – ensuring you look stylish AND stay warm.
Brushed cotton, used in the majority of our winter shirting fabrics, is a cotton fabric that’s been brushed to remove the lint and fibres. This makes the shirting soft to touch and comfortable to wear. Of course, it’s also very good at keeping you warm too! Wool holds heat in well too – trapping air and keeping you insulated. Even a thin wool jumper or shirt can add a lot of warmth – especially if you’ve moving about.
Our Country Living collection is ideal for winter. With its range of brushed cotton and wool blended shirts you’re guaranteed to stay warm, while a country check design will keep you looking stylish too.
For the workplace, you may want to stick to our block colour designs. Our Fife Plain Azure Fabric and Fife Plain White Fabric are great options and two of the most popular in the range. Of course, a quality dark fabric wouldn’t go amiss either, which is why we also recommend our Sterling Plain Navy Solid Fabric, which is brushed on both sides.
Our country check collection offers a fantastic range of designs – our favourites being the Fife 25 Green Check Fabric and Fife 25 Blue Check Fabric. Our checked shirting is made from 100% brushed cotton too, ensuring warmth throughout the winter months.
If you’re looking for warm checked shirting best suited to a smart-casual dress code, we suggest our smaller check pattern fabrics. The Fife 50 Blue Check Fabric and Fife 50 Burgundy Check Fabric are great options.
Not sure what to pair your country shirt with? Shirts are one of the easiest styles of clothing to wear and look great with all those winter layers.
