Description
A Deep Cobalt That Wears Like a Neutral
Serinus sits at the deepest end of the blue range — a saturated cobalt that reads close to navy in interior light and reveals its true blue character outdoors. The depth of color makes it pair effortlessly with a black suit, gray slacks, or a chasuble in liturgical season colors.
Tab Collar with Single Chest Pocket
A reinforced tab collar holds a standard plastic insert; a single left chest pocket is sized for a phone, glasses case, or pocket prayer book. Topstitching is tonal so the pocket reads as part of the body rather than a contrasting feature.
Construction and Detailing
Flat-felled side seams, a split back yoke, reinforced shoulder seams, and bar tacks at the pocket corners. Cross-stitched buttons in tonal cobalt keep the front line clean and stay anchored through repeated wash cycles.
Fabric and Care
Cotton-rich poplin (approx. 65% cotton / 35% polyester) with a high-pigment cobalt dye selected for color stability. Machine wash cold with similar colors, tumble dry low, avoid bleach.

FAQs
Will Serinus look navy or true blue in photos?
It depends on light. Indoors and at dusk it reads close to navy; outdoors and in bright daylight the cobalt blue is unmistakable.
How does Serinus compare to Caelis and Pacem?
Serinus is the deepest of the three. Caelis is long-sleeve royal blue with a full neckband; Pacem is short-sleeve royal blue with a hidden placket and no pocket; Serinus is short-sleeve cobalt with a tab collar and one pocket.
Is Serinus appropriate for funeral services?
Many traditions accept a deep blue at solemn occasions where black is preferred but unavailable. Check local custom; in interior light Serinus reads close enough to navy that it can substitute for black in many parish contexts.
Will the cobalt color bleed in the wash?
We recommend washing with similar dark or saturated colors for the first three cycles. After that the dye is set; cold washes maintain the depth of color long term.
