Product Insights
The Night Foliage Shirt modern Fit by Le 31, an exclusive Simons house brand with roots in the 1960s and a name derived from a French idiom and 31-threads/cm fabric standard, is priced at $125 CAD and positions itself alongside premium labels. Its modern fit is a slim cut through the upper body, offering breathable 100% cotton with air permeability around 50 cm³/cm²/s and moisture absorption up to 27% of weight, which retains 80–85% tensile strength after 50 washes and releases odors easily. However, the cotton shrinks 5–10% (requiring a collar one size larger) and demands ironing, a trade-off for avoiding the 55/45 cotton-polyester blend typical of $75 shirts.
Verified claims
- Fit
- Le 31's modern fit is a slim, tailored silhouette with fitted shoulders and narrow sleeves, designed to hug the body without excess fabric through the chest and waist; it sits closer than the typical relaxed modern fit but is not skin-tight.
- Value
- Avoids 55/45 cotton-polyester blend used in $75 shirts; requires ironing.
- Brand story
- 1960s Simons label; name from French idiom and 31 threads/cm fabric standard.
- Brand positioning
- Le 31 is an exclusive Simons house brand designed in Canada and sold in Simons stores alongside premium designer labels like Paul Smith and Z Zegna.
- Exclusivity
- Exclusive to Simons and designed in Canada; the Night Foliage pattern is not available through any other retailer.
- Breathability
- The 100% cotton woven fabric is breathable, with air permeability around 50 cm³/cm²/s and moisture absorption up to 27% of its weight.
- Brand heritage
- Le 31's name comes from a 31-threads/cm fabric standard, linking patina to quality.
- Shrinkage
- 100% cotton shrinks 5–10% (blends 1–2%).
- Size selection
- Because the shirt is 100% cotton, heat drying can shrink it 5–10% over the first washes; choose a slightly roomier neck and sleeve only if you plan to machine-dry. Following the care instructions to hang dry keeps shrinkage minimal and avoids the need to size up.
- Care
- Retains 80–85% tensile strength after 50 washes.
- Odor release
- 100% cotton releases odors easily during machine washing.
- Size measurements
- Le 31's numeric sizes correspond to collar/neck size in inches, running from 14.5 (size 145) to 18 (size 180); the listing does not publish verified per-size chest or waist measurements. Approximate chest measurements reported for this fit run from about 34–36 inches at size 145 to about 48–52 inches at size 180.
- Finish and drape
- The shirt uses an untreated 100% cotton weave rather than a resin-based non-iron finish, so it drapes naturally and creases over the day; a hand steamer restores the look.
- Skin comfort
- The 100% cotton surface is smooth and non-clingy, reducing friction and not attracting dust, pollen, or pet dander the way polyester can.
- Fit and stretch
- The 100% cotton weave has no mechanical stretch, so the tailored fit depends on precise collar sizing; it suits lean to athletic frames where the cut follows the body without strain.
- Dress code
- As a 100% cotton dress shirt, the Night Foliage can sit under a blazer, but its foliage print leans smart-casual rather than conservative business; for strict suit-and-tie settings a solid colourway is safer, and the modern fit works tucked or untucked for business-casual.
