1950’s Cotton Poplin Shirt (SH1950)

It’s taken some persuading but we’ve finally decided to move with the times and produce a 1950’s/60’s shirt. The body is less voluminous than our early C20th shirts but keeps well away from anything as drastic as a slim fit. Fusing has been used in the collar and cuffs which is a radical innovation, not just for us, but for the shirtmakers of mid C20th as well.

The collar shape itself is a direct copy of one we inherited from the legendary old shirt firm Rayner and Sturgess who bequeathed us a whole archive of collar shapes. It’s the perfect compromise between a spearpoint and a cutaway so this is the ultimate Goldilocks shirt being neither too modern nor too period but just right.

*Please note the newest batch of these shirts have a slightly different collar shape. We have added an image of the difference with the White and Blue together. The WHITE is the new batch of shirt and the BLUE is the old batch. If ordering in batch, please be aware that we cannot guarantee a matching batch but we will as best we can. We apologise for any inconvenience.*

Single cuff with double buttonholes which can take cufflinks.
