After Drake’s · Autumn/Winter 2024
Green Oxford Cotton Pyjama Set
Drake's pyjama shirt is the top half of a loungewear set, cut from oxford cotton rather than the poplin or flannel more usual for nightwear. It takes the shape of a traditional pyjama jacket, with a button front, a soft rounded collar, three patch pockets and a square hem. It is made in Somerset, England, and comes with matching drawstring trousers, so it can be worn as a full set at home or on its own as a relaxed shirt.

In Proper Cloth
Washed Moss Lightweight Oxford
We chose a washed lightweight oxford in moss green because it is closest to the original's muted sage tone and soft, slightly heathered oxford surface. We kept the solid colour, the cotton oxford weave, the mother of pearl buttons and a square hem. Proper Cloth offers neither a rounded pyjama collar nor three patch pockets, so we used a soft one piece collar, a single square chest pocket and a French front for a clean, unstructured look, with soft barrel cuffs where the original has plain sleeve ends.
A solid moss green oxford woven from fine two-ply cotton yarns, lighter and more breathable than a classic heavy oxford. It is washed after weaving so it feels soft and broken in from the start, and like other oxfords it keeps a subtle texture and gets softer with washing.

- Care
- This one also receives a special washing to give it a soft, broken-in feel from day one. Oxford cloth is heavier than business dress shirt fabrics—subtly textured and highly durable, it only gets better the more you wear and wash it. Finish: No Treatment.
