Albini 1876

Since 1876, we have been creating distinctive fabrics that combine research, elegance and timeless quality.

Albini was founded 150 years ago in the heart of Northern Italy, by a family passionate about textiles.

Designed in New York

"I used to make my own custom shirts, and I’d always choose Albini. It became that fabric that was just perfect. They’ve been making shirts for hundreds of years and they're still doing things the same way today."

Todd's relationship with Albini started over 20 years ago, and the design process is a highly collaborative one. From raw cotton to 
finished fabric, Albini controls the entire production process, ensuring quality, durability, and elegance.

Shirting at its Finest

“I look at a leather jacket almost like I look at a sports car. It’s the one thing I think every guy wants in their closet, and really aspires to own.”

Thomas Mason 1796

In the 90s, Albini brought the British brand, Thomas Mason, under its umbrella. Its 700-volume fabric archive dates back to the 19th century, preserving historic fabrics, designs, and weaving techniques.
