Ripley Ischia knit shirt (limited stock)

Limited stock available online. Next restock - mid 2023. 

For the first in our Icon series, we look towards The Talented Mr Ripley (1999); instantly conjuring effortless Italian coastal cool, sun-bleached days followed hazy nights. After years of watching and re-watching this film it was only a matter of time before we took what we knew of these knit shirts and made them a reality.

Every detail -  the weaves, buttons, colours and the all important collars - has been fastidiously analysed to re-imagine these two seminal knit shirts worn by Jude Law's character, Dickie Greenleaf in the cult classic. We're on the Island of Ischia (for all the film fans, this was where the good life was filmed, sun drenched days, followed by hazy nights) This is the closest you'll get to the pieces you see on screen.

The soft yellow waffled main body has off-white front panels, with two pockets set on the waist. Every detail, weave, button, colour and the all important collars have been closely examined to create ‘knit-nerd’ accurate pieces.

Sizing 

For those of you who know SFC already, the fit of the Ripley Ischia knit is the similar to our Lido shirts. It has a slightly wider fit as standard, with a body length to hit you on or around your hip, perfect when worn with mid to higher waist trousers/shorts - please review our size chart for more information and please allow a tolerance for the knit fabric. 

It's important remember when reviewing the size chart (above) that knitwear is a garment that has stretch and movement in the weave. There's no need to scrutinise every number on the chart, as you may normally do with a fixed/rigid fabric, such as cotton shirting. When measuring pieces, please understand the nature of the knit material and where possible we aim to take exact dimensions, a degree of tolerance must be considered with the stretch etc. Order for your chest size.

Styling 

No need to tuck the shirt too, with a straight hem and waistband, the length of the Ripley Ischia is ideal when worn relaxed over shorts or trousers. Why not pair it with a pair of our higher waisted trousers or shorts.

Looking for something to style under your knit? Wear with our perforated vest for the full look. 

Care instructions
