Monti: Italian Shirting Purity for the Powerfully Poised

In a world where every detail is scrutinized, the quality of your shirt speaks volumes — even before you do. For those who sit atop private equity firms, helm football clubs, or maintain private art collections, Monti shirting fabrics offer the perfect union of refinement, reliability, and prestige.
Founded in 1911 and headquartered in Italy’s Veneto region, Tessitura Monti is one of the world’s most respected producers of fine cotton shirting. Woven with Italian integrity, and favored by those who expect nothing but the exceptional, Monti cloths are known for their timeless patterns, remarkable softness, and effortless drape.
At Lapels Bespoke, Monti fabrics become more than shirts — they become iconic pieces of wearable architecture, crafted for the few who live and lead beyond the limits.
An Italian Legacy in Every Thread
With over a century of continuous production, Monti represents the enduring strength of Italian textile tradition. Every bolt of fabric is designed in-house, using only extra-long staple cottons — including Egyptian Giza and Supima — and finished with meticulous attention to weave clarity, structure, and tactile perfection.
Monti’s secret lies in its perfect balance between artisanal heritage and modern technology, producing shirting cloths that are as durable as they are distinguished.
