The verdict

Same construction and value as the almond; pick based on color preference and how it reads in your existing wardrobe.

Fit

Identical cut and sizing guidance to the almond variant. Linen sizing is straightforward from 3sixteen; expect natural wrinkle and modest shrinkage early on.

Quality

3sixteen's linen finishing is consistent across their color runs. Expect reliable seaming and collar structure.

Price check

USD 220 is fair for a well-finished linen shirt from a builder-focused brand; price does not subsidize a lifestyle claim.

Best for

Those who prefer a cooler blue tone and already trust 3sixteen's sizing.

Care

Wash linen warm; tumble dry low or hang to avoid excessive shrinkage.

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.
