Dhal Regular Shirt Dobby Gingham

Hello everyone,

This is Kubo from keylime Tokyo.

Today, I’d like to introduce the latest version of the Regular Shirt from Dhal, one of the brand’s signature items.

We’ve featured Dhal’s Regular Shirt several times at keylime Tokyo, and it’s been a favorite among many of our customers.

This season, the shirt returns with a fresh expression thanks to a new fabric.

This season’s fabric features a gingham check expressed through dobby weaving.

It’s an original material developed by Dhal, using 100/2 strong-twist cotton for the warp and 50/1 yarn for the weft, woven in a 1:1 ratio.

The result is a fabric that combines the softness of knitwear with a dry, crisp touch.

The geometric patterns that subtly emerge within the check design are a reflection of Dhal’s attention to detail—something only possible with their original, custom-made fabrics.

Thanks to the knit-like drape of the dobby weave, this version of the Regular Shirt offers a different kind of appeal compared to previous ones.

The dry texture feels pleasant against the skin and helps prevent clinginess, making it especially comfortable during the warmer months ahead.

Another standout feature of Dhal’s shirts is the way the collar opens.

This shirt truly comes to life when the top button is left open. The collar opens beautifully, and even with the second button undone, it maintains an elegant, effortless look without appearing too casual or forced.
