In ancient times, a garment was washed roughly, in the rivers and streams which flowed through the lands. It was the Babylonians who were first to discover lye when mixing animal fat and cooking ash in water. This created a base (alkali) which was effective in washing their garments. This shirt is washed roughly, yet in a more refined modern manner to create the effect seen. It is a classic design, and although we prefer collared shirts here, one must have a few casual pieces to rely on.
