The Universal Works "Road" Short-Sleeve Shirt is a standout piece for the SS26 summer wardrobe, masterfully blending the brand's signature utility appeal with ancient artisanal techniques. This garment is a celebration of slow fashion, utilizing Hand-Spun Khadi cotton — a fabric prized for its unique irregular texture and incredible breathability in high heat.
The design is anchored by an Ecru Khadi base, providing a neutral, organic canvas for intricate Indian hand-embroidery. The contrasting black thread forms an abstract floral pattern, adding a layer of handcrafted depth that sets it apart from mass-produced prints. With its classic open collar and clean straight hem, the "Road" shirt offers a relaxed, boxy silhouette that epitomizes minimalist summer sophistication.
