Product Insights
Le 31's 100% European linen long-sleeve shirt in comfort fit offers a straight cut that maximizes breathability by avoiding restrictive armholes and chest, priced at $89 CAD—below the typical $120+ for fully traceable European linen. The Masters of FLAX FIBRE linen starts soft and gets progressively softer with cold washing using mild pH-neutral detergent; line-drying or laying flat prevents shrinkage and deep wrinkles, while ironing damp on high heat provides a crisp finish. However, the fabric is sheer in white and ecru, requiring an undershirt, and storage on a padded hanger or folded away from sunlight preserves its quality.
Verified claims
- Fit
- Straight cut avoids restrictive armholes and chest, maximizing breathability.
- Material
- Masters of FLAX FIBRE linen is soft and gets softer with cold washing.
- Value
- At $89 CAD, below the typical $120+ for fully traceable European linen.
- Care instructions
- Use mild pH-neutral detergent to preserve the linen's natural breathability.
- Care longevity
- Cold washing, line-drying, and mild detergent keep the fabric soft and prevent shrinkage.
- Sheerness
- Lightweight linen can be somewhat sheer, especially in white and light colors like ecru; an undershirt is recommended if visibility is a concern.
- Washing
- Cold wash with mild detergent preserves crispness and softens over time.
- Drying
- Line-dry or lay flat to avoid shrinkage and deep wrinkles.
- Ironing
- Iron damp on high-heat linen setting for a crisp finish.
- Storage
- Store on a padded hanger or gently folded; keep white and ecru colorways out of direct sunlight to prevent yellowing.
- Softening
- Starts soft from first wear and gets progressively softer with each cold wash.
- Moisture wicking
- The flax linen naturally wicks moisture, and using a mild, pH-neutral detergent helps preserve that ability on warm days.
- Sizing
- The comfort fit runs large; one buyer found the large too big and sized down to medium for a perfect fit.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| 100% European Linen Long-Sleeve Shirt Comfort Fit: Choose this if you want a lightweight, breathable 100% Masters of FLAX FIBRE linen shirt with a relaxed, roomy comfort fit for casual summer and smart-casual wear — reviewers praised the linen's quality and breathability, and colors like Baby Blue, White, Ecru/Linen, and Mauve give it a fresh look. Be aware that, per the reviews analysis, the relaxed fit runs large and your usual size will likely be too big, so most customers need to size down or rely on exchanges for the intended comfortable fit.[1] | 100% European Linen Long-Sleeve Shirt Modern Fit: Choose this if you want a lightweight, breathable 100% Masters of FLAX FIBRE™ linen shirt for keeping cool on hot summer days, with a modern fit that reviewers say comfortably accommodates broad shoulders and chest. Note that the body has a relaxed cut and the sleeves run slightly long, so tailoring is often needed for a sharp, tailored-slim silhouette, and the lightweight linen can read slightly sheer.[2,3] | Linen-Organic Cotton Shirt Relaxed Fit: Choose this if you want a relaxed-fit, long-sleeve button-up in a lightweight, breathable blend of 55% Masters of FLAX FIBRE linen and 45% organic cotton, with a curved hem that falls below the waistline so it works worn open over an underlayer. It comes in White (Medium, Large, and X-Large) and Chocolate/Espresso (listed only in Large).[4,5,6] |
