La Paz Branco Balsam Green Stripes

The La Paz Branco Balsam Green Stripes is a classic button-down shirt built from a 70% cotton / 30% linen blend. This exact version uses a fine Balsam Green stripe and a medium-weight fabric that combines cotton structure with the natural breathability of linen. The shape is easy and comfortable rather than sharply tailored, with a clean pointed collar, mother-of-pearl buttons and a relaxed curved hem. La Paz pre-washes the fabric and makes the shirt in Portugal.

The material is what gives this Branco its range. The cotton-linen construction offers more texture and airflow than a standard smooth cotton shirt, while the medium weight keeps enough body for transitional weather. The subtle stripe is easier to combine than a high-contrast pattern and works both buttoned and open. The mother-of-pearl buttons add a restrained finishing detail without changing the practical character of the shirt. Because this exact fabric has been verified, there is no need to borrow specifications from other Branco colourways.

For fit, La Paz recommends taking your normal size for a regular, comfortable fit. If you prefer a deliberately more relaxed silhouette, sizing up is the brand’s stated option. Check the shoulder seam, sleeve length and curved hem with the shirt both tucked and untucked, because those proportions change how it reads with different trousers. If you plan to wear a tee underneath, make sure the chest and upper back still move freely when you reach forward. The goal is room without losing the clean line of the collar and shoulders.

The Balsam Green stripe works well with denim, ecru trousers, dark chinos or other muted colours. The breathable cotton-linen blend makes the shirt useful across seasons: wear it on its own in milder conditions or open over a T-shirt when you want an extra light layer. The curved hem gives you the option to leave it untucked for a more relaxed look, while the pointed collar keeps the shirt neat enough for a cleaner outfit. Let the stripe carry the pattern and keep the rest simple.

Wash this shirt cold, as specified for this exact version, and follow the sewn-in care label for drying and ironing. Linen blends can develop natural texture after washing, so reshape the shirt gently and avoid unnecessary high heat. The fabric is pre-washed, but careful treatment still helps preserve the fit and button placket. Explore more in the La Paz collection or browse the wider men's collection.
