Thomas Mason:
Engelse stoffen voor het laten maken van een overhemd.
British inspired, with a touch of eccentricity, Thomas Mason collection is characterized by double twisted fabrics, crafted using only the finest yarns from the extra-long staple Egyptian cotton.
Founded in Lancashire in 1796 by entrepreneur Thomas Mason, the eponymous label has been a landmark for elegance and quality, in the world of English shirting tradition. Acquired by Albini Group in 1992, Thomas Mason reinterprets its rich heritage in a modern and original way, through precious and colourful double twisted fabrics, crafted using the exceptional Giza 45 and Giza 87 Egyptian cotton and the refined linen from Normandy.
Spring - Summer Collection
Bases in linen and linen blends, cottons with strong colourful stripes, but also micro-gingham and tartan: the very British Heritage of Thomas Mason is openly declared for the Spring/Summer collection.
Fresh, sophisticated fabrics in fine yarn counts, linen enriched with designs and colour: pronounced stripes, whether the classic micro-stripes picked out in pastel shades moving quickly to bold bright colours.
The masterpiece of the collection, Amber, is a fabric made with an extremely fine yarn obtained by an intimate blend of cotton/linen, produced exclusively from the spinning mill I Cotoni di Albini, owned by the Group. This fabric is breathable and cool thanks to the best linen of Normandy and also has a soft and pleasant touch typical of the best cottons.
In designing, stripes are the father of all, and these alternate with micro-gingham, tartans in bright and colourful madras tones. Also a lively seersucker effect.
From the point of view of colour, the Spring Summer Collection of Thomas Mason is tinged overall in pink: a refined tone, a common denominator among the fancy checks and stripes.
Silverline Collection
The Silverline fabrics of Thomas Mason are still being made in the traditional English way, and are sold worldwide. The collection, born in 1992, is a selection of classic two fold cotton shirtings, produced in the best tradition of fine English cloth with the best Extra Long Staple Egyptian cotton. The combination of a special twist given to the fine yarns, plus the traditional pure finishing method, confer a special lustre and softness, characteristics which make Thomas Mason fabrics quite unique in their class. Thomas Mason shirtings make their resultant garments stand apart, defining their style, enhancing their excellence and ensuring the highest quality of the end product.

The fabrics, on typical structures poplin, zephyr, twill and oxford, are realized with two folded cotton yarns 140/2 obtained from the best Egyptian cotton, Giza 45. Cultivated in a small area of the Nile delta, thanks to particular climatic conditions and the fertility of the earth, Giza 45 represents only the 0,4% of the total annual Egyptian production. His fibres allow to reach the fineness, the silky handle and the softness of the best shirting fabrics.
Completing the collection is a precious collection of super white fabrics, created with the best Egyptian Giza 87 Cotton. The Giza 87 fibre presents extraordinary and unique characteristics; the fibre being notably long and the brightness amongst the best of the Egyptian long-staple cottons, guaranteeing a particularly luminous and brilliant white.
Thomas Mason exalts the characteristics of Giza 87, creating fabrics which do not degrade over time and, on the contrary, with each wash the fabric will return to its original silky handle: a feeling that can be proved every day when wearing a shirt of the Giza 87 Thomas Mason.
High quality cotton alone is not enough. Groundbreaking technology and highly competent personel also contribute. Behind quality, exclusivity and sophistication is a brand that for generations has coupled craftsmanship and obsessive attention to detail with the complexities of an industrial production process. Particular attention is paid to the finishing processes in order to render the Goldline fabrics unique in coloration, luminosity and silky handle. To guarantee the maximum quality, a professional and experienced cloth inspector examines every single metre of fabric with a particular consideration.
