Get to know the sw1 linen raglan henley.

The perfect shirt for Southeast Asia.

  

The SW1 HENLEY coloured a deep, luxurious HUNTER GREEN, with subtle Southeast Asian design touches such as the mandarin collar and three-quarter sleeves.

 

Style and design.

Composed, confident, Southeast Asian.

A mandarin collar that is subtle, but intentional. A quiet nod to Asian tailoring — clean, minimal, precise.

Three-quarter sleeves that changes how a shirt feels. No need to roll up. Just the right balance of formality and ease.

A relaxed cut and silhouette that looks effortlessly composed, emphasises the shoulders and let's you move freely. Tailored for the Southeast Asian body types.

Muted colours that go well with other colours easily, also selected to match and look good with Southeast Asian skin tones.

 

Material.

Breathable, easy-care linen.

A linen-cotton blend that incorporates the latest in fabric technology.

Linen is famous for its breathability but on its own wrinkles easily and can feel rough.

Cotton is added, preserving breathability and moisture-wicking but also ensuring the shirt wrinkles less and feels smoother to wear.

A trace of rayon is further added to adjust the fabric for a smoother hand-feel and add further wrinkle-resistance.

This blend doesn't just ensure comfort and wrinkle-resistance, it also gets better with time. With each wash, the fabric gets softer - not just durable and lasting long, but actually improving over time. 

 

   Ril pairs the SW1 HENLEY with a kain pelikat for an outfit that engages with tradition while feeling immediately contemporary.

 

Performance.

Stay cool. Designed for airflow.

Clothes in Southeast Asia should not just look good but also find a way to help us feel comfortable in the heat and humidity.

The sw1 henley excels in dealing with the Southeast Asian climate. The shirt has been designed to optimise for airflow, keeping you feeling cool.

Lightweight fabric allows air to pass through easily, not trapping heat.

Breathable linen-cotton allows air to flow through the fabric, not just around it.

A relaxed cut allows air to circulate through the shirt, not forming a stiff shell the way a fitted cut does.

Versatility.

Wear it with anything. Anywhere.

The sw1 henley looks good with many different types of other clothes - over shorts, with trousers, with jeans, etc.

It can be worn for a large variety of occasions - a nice dinner, hanging out at the mamak, walking around all day during a holiday, to a party at a friend's house, casual Friday at the office, etc.

Because that's what versatility should give you. Ease of mind, not having to stress out whether clothes go together. A simple wardrobe, not needing a lot of clothes to cover the occasions in life.

People have loved them:

 

"I have to say that I ordered 2 henleys with a bit of skepticism when I chanced upon it on IG. Glad to say I was proven wrong. The material is a lovely surprise - soft to the skin and cooling to the touch. I love the design and I am contemplating getting another soon."
Julian

 

"Your top, the material is great, light, soft, not itchy (I am fairly sensitive to itchy fabric, me no likey). My wife keeps asking, “Kenape awak hari ni extra handsome?”
Hafizul

 

"The henley is my default top to wear to work now. Every time I wear it to the office I always get a lot of compliments on how I look. To be fair, it makes my shoulders look jacked."
