What turned out to be the perfect winter shirt-weave of 80% cotton and 20% merino wool was invented and trademarked by Viyella in 1894, the year London’s Tower Bridge opened to traffic. It is still produced because it is simply still the finest winter shirt. As soon as you wear it, you become warm, and comfortable, and this remarkable fabric just gets better with age.
Viyella was the first shirtmaker to blend fabrics—any fabrics—hence the trademark. For these ‘warm handle’ shirts they continue to use long staple cotton, blended with the best merino wool. It gives a soft fabric finish, high durability and of course warmth. Whatever the details, the Viyella shirt is made to last, and whether we are talking about yesterday, today or tomorrow, it matters. It is a shirt that says ‘British’ all the way through, and Members buy it at a special Club rate.
Non Members £105 plus delivery. CCUK £39 including UK mainland delivery, the best possible price.

Viyella Classic Fit shirts provide a more generous fit than most. Beautifully tailored, they are straighter at the sides, with a side pleat at the base of the back yoke to give ease of movement to the shoulder region. The luxurious fabric, the historic specially blended cotton-Merino wool blend, gives winter warmth.
Viyella was first woven in England in 1893 by William Hollins & Co from a blend of 55% wool and 45% cotton in a twill weave. The first ready-made garments using Viyella were shirts and nightgowns, and soon came dresses, slips and other clothing. It was cloth that your cold-weather shirts were made out of–and because of its softness, warmth and coziness, it was almost certainly the material that your favourite cold-weather shirt was made from. The fabric has since been modernised to an 80/20 blend, making it easier to wear in modern situations.
