A true forever wardrobe foundation, the Lela is your go-to white shirt; a favourite amongst Saywood customers for it’s easy-to-wear classics-redefined styling. Its oversized boxy silhouette drapes beautifully of your body, whilst the box pleat in the back gives an added elegance.
Trimmed with unexpected details akin to Saywood; subtle cotton herringbone tape at the pockets, to-match top stitching, neat side splits for ease, and a light utilitarian feel.
Cut from a modern soft recycled cotton from the Canclini mill in Italy, the Lela Shirt in white offers a more sustainable alternative to the conventional classic; using existing cotton, respun, with little water used, made in London to reduce our carbon footprint, and finished with eco-friendly corozo buttons.

Wash less, love always
We recommend hanging your shirt to air outdoors, rather than washing after every wear. This way, it will last longer and also have a lower environmental impact. Spot clean marks with warm soapy water, and when it does need a wash, follow our care advice:
- Machine wash 30 degrees
- Wash with similar colours
- Medium iron
- Do not bleach
- Do not tumble dry
A note on our cotton and corozo buttons
Our Lela Shirt uses recycled cotton sourced from the Canclini mill in Italy; regenerating what already exists, made solely using the mill’s own solar-generated power. It’s made in London by Apparel Tasker, which, as a London-based brand, reduces our carbon footprint.
Our cotton is also certified STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®, which means it’s completely free from chemicals harmful to your skin. We’ve used corozo – known as vegetable ivory – for our buttons, as it comes from a nut found in South America which can only be harvested once it naturally falls to the ground, making it a more sustainable choice.
