Male - Tailored Fit - Wool

Lightweight Melton Wool Shirt (M)

$195.00

A warmer-weather version of our iconic Modern Melton, the Lightweight Melton Wool balances durability and weather resistance with elevated comfort for days on the move. Made from a smooth and densely woven post-consumer recycled wool blend, it has a tailored fit that features a simple collar, left-chest pocket and curved bottom hem; the two-tone crescent buttons are based on Canadian military buttons from the Second World War. With a versatile, wear-it-for-anything design, it’s a shirt you’ll always want on your back or in your pack.

• Smooth 12-oz 80% post-consumer recycled wool/20% nylon is comfortable, durable and naturally weather-resistant
• Colours come from the original source garments; dye-free recycling process saves water and eliminates the use of harmful chemical dyes
• Double yoke across the upper back for additional comfort and strength
• Pleats on back shoulders for more freedom of movement
• Two-tone buttons, double-button cuffs and curved hem

Our tailored fit has a structured, moderately slim cut. To wear over layers, or to fit a more robust frame, we recommend moving up one size. See our sizing chart for further details.

Wash in cold water and hang to dry. To reduce energy and water use, we recommend washing only when necessary. Less washing also gives your garments a longer life.

Recently purchased this item to support a Canadian company as I believe in their mission statement.

I was emailed a 15% discount minutes after my purchase. I contacted Anian customer support to see if they could retro apply the 15% off as I just made the purchase and it could not be returned.

I was informed that the 15% could not be applied to sale items. Which is not true. I applied the code “circular” to the item I just purchased and there was an additional 15% off. I took a screenshot and sent it to Abbey from customer service. Only to then not receive any further correspondence. This is not about the money but lack of customer service for a company that is proudly Canadian and believes in their expensive product lines.

Congratulations on losing a customer

Hi there, as noted in our newsletter and on our policy page, sale items aren’t eligible for the additional 15% off discount code. As a made in Canada company, we don’t have the overseas margins that allow for deeper discounts than what we offer during a Sale—this is why the policy is in place. If a sale item was able to apply the 15% off code, that was an error in our back of house that we will fix.

Really like the colour, style and fit.
Unfortunately the stitching/texture for the collar liner is very rough and is rubbing my neck raw. Very uncomfortable. Sale item so final sale, unfortunately for me.

Hi there, the wool fibres will soften with wear and become less itchy and rough. Takes some time before the fibres settle.

Looks great, warm, and well made. I'm 6 feet and 156 lbs with a slim build and size small fit me perfectly

Enjoying the top for cool early-fall morning dog walks on the west coast. Sizing fits closer to a shirt than to a jacket. I can fit a thin long sleeve underneath (or a sun hoody) but it would never fit over something like a sweatshirt.

I liked it so much I bought another one. I keep one in the trunk of my car for foraging in the woods and that one just gets beat up. I'll use this new one to hang in the closet for more civilized gatherings.

This shirt looks great and wears great. Fits true to size, and is very soft after wearing in. It is made of durable and natural materials. What's not to like?

Absolutely love it! It’s sharp, durable, feels great and looks so good my wife pinched my ass while wearing it.

Another great Anian piece. I prefer the weight of this top to other Anian shirts. This is more of a shirt than a jacket and it's wearable all year. I am a 5'10, long-limbed women for reference and ordered a men's medium. I found the fit perfect for me. Not too baggy and the shoulders and arms fit well.

10/10. I love my regular but I run hot and the lightweight solves that problem. Quite a bit more comfortable than the regular Melton also. Soft and very well made. Another winner from Anian. Canadian made and upcycled, I couldn't ask for more. Keep those elbows waaaaay up y'all

The weight is exactly right. I run warm and 400GSM hits the sweet spot — substantial without overheating. Quality is superb. Already becoming my go-to.

Love it. I have two others that are heavier weight and love those too. But, the light weight one is great for the office....and the coming summer days.

Good quality shirt, however the wool is definitely more itchy than other wool products I own. Also the length of the large melton wool shirt when compared to the length of the large circular Henley is a good 1 1/2 inches shorter. Would have loved if the melton wool shirt was the same length as the Henley. I’m 6’1” with a long torso and the melton shirt definitely feels short. Honestly feels more like a medium fit when compared to similar shirts I own from other brands.

Everything I thought it would be, soft, comfortable and stylish. Wears much more like an everyday shirt whereas the heavyweight shirt (600 gsm) wears more like an outer layer. Very happy with the purchase.

Well made, structured and looks great dressed up or worn casually. The weight of the fabric is versatile and the fact that it is made of recycled wool and Canadian made is awesome!

Great shirt, but the sizing is off compared to their other shirts/jackets and customer service has cancelled my replacement request and I’m jumping through hoops to get a size larger without paying extra.

Beautiful shirt. I was concerned about sizing, I’m 6’0 200lbs muscular build and the XL fits perfect as a mid layer. A bit scratchy but can be worn fine with a t shirt underneath. Some of threads are already coming loose on one of the sleeves,we shall see about the longevity.

Everything was very good quality, fit well and delivery was fast, thank you.

The quality of the shirt construction is great. The length of the shirt is really long - the tail way down past the seat of my pants (I'm 5'11"). I'm hoping the material becomes less itchy over time.

Size up, maybe twice.

Nice looking shirt, just make sure of the sizing. If you can try on in person or can afford to buy a few sizes at the same time to try out, do that. I'm 6'1, 185 lbs, pretty trim. Usually wear a L in button ups and have had a few Anian L shirts in the heavier wool. I bought an XL in this figuring I'd be able to wash it, shrink it a little, and still layer over other shirts to work or outside, but the XL in this lightweight melton wool is too tight to wear even over a tshirt. Almost comically tight.

Sudden delivery. This is to compliment the one I got 5 years ago. Looking sharp and feeling good.

Once again your sizing is off.The XXL fits like a snu Large...? Good material, poor size control.

Hi there, we’re sorry to hear the fit didn’t work out. Our Modern Melton Wool traditionally has had a slimmer, more tailored cut. Recently, we’ve expanded our Melton 600GSM to include a Relaxed Fit, which will also be available in the Lightweight Melton next spring. You can find more details about our fits under the “Garment Fit” section below the product description.
