Short Sleeve Workshirt ~ Brown Pigment Dye
The verdict
Fit
Workshirt cut implies functional pockets and a structured, work-ready silhouette. Pigment dye often runs slightly stiff initially.
Quality
Pigment dye is an artisanal finish that adds character. 3sixteen's workshirts feature solid stitching and durable button placement suited to rough wear.
Price check
At $175, mid-premium pricing for a pigment-dyed workshirt. Fair value if you appreciate the dye technique and utilitarian aesthetic.
Best for
Workwear enthusiasts and casual dressers seeking a brown short-sleeve shirt with visible craftsmanship and durability.
Care
Cool water wash and hang-dry to prevent pigment bleeding and allow the stiffness to gradually relax with wear.

What owners report about 3sixteen button-ups
3sixteen's button-up range is anchored by the Crosscut Flannel, which editorial coverage describes as a heavy, all-cotton Japanese fabric with a brushed interior, chainstitch run-offs, and enamel buttons that are expected to wear and chip over time. A three-year owner review of the indigo knit version reports the shirt stayed in heavy rotation but the elbows eventually wore through the outer layer and needed patching, with fading concentrated at the cuffs and other high-wear areas. The same reviewer describes the fit as slim and tailored, with slight give in the fabric that keeps it unrestrictive.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently point to the substantial Japanese flannel fabric and visible construction detail as the reason these shirts stay in rotation for years.
- Watch out for
- In long-term wear the elbows are the first failure point — one three-year review reports them wearing through and needing patches — and the enamel buttons are expected to crack and chip with use.
- Sizing
- The Crosscut Flannel fits on the slim, tailored side; a long-term reviewer advises taking your usual 3sixteen shirt size, noting the fabric's slight stretch gives some leeway.
