Tender has its roots in antique workwear and machinery, especially from the Great British Steam Age. An important face of Tender’s English–made clothing is the nurture which is put into the clothes: in their research, design, manufacture and wear. Tender’s goal is for the owner to live with their clothes, wearing them hard, but respecting their provenance and the stories they have to tell.
Hadal Blue Linen Cotton Covert Type 401 Three Pocket Squaretail Shirt
The Three Pocket Square Tail Shirt is a combination of several previous Tender shirt designs. The simple square body, with split tails and a flat back, has large hand pockets sewn into the side seams and a third left chest pocket. The sleeves are pleated into false cuffs, cut into the seam.Black melamine Savile Row tailor’s fly buttons. 100% cotton thread rinsed to shrink.
Tender’s linen covert cloth is woven in the same pattern as a traditional thornproof covert, trapping the contrasting natural brown linen weft behind the ecru cotton warp.
The Hadal Zone, named for the Greek underworld, Hades, is the deepest oceanic zone, below the Sunlight Zone, the Twilight Zone, the Midnight Zone and the Abyss. Hadal blue and hadal green are the deepest colours achievable through reactive dyeing, darker than any natural dye. As with natural dyeing, though, the whole garment is dyed after sewing, showing subtle variations in tone and depth between different fabrics and garment constructions.
