Navy Check Cotton Two-Pocket Long Point Collar Work Shirt

A casual work shirt in pure cotton, cut on Drake's relaxed block and made in Italy. It takes its lines from the utility shirt, with two flapped chest pockets that hold small things so the trousers do not have to. A long point collar, curved hem and mother of pearl buttons give it a neater finish than most workwear. It is meant to be worn on its own or open as a light layer, on working days and at weekends alike.

Teton Charcoal and Slate Plaid Flannel

We chose a brushed cotton flannel in a charcoal and slate plaid because it comes closest to the blue grey colouring and soft twill hand of the original. We set the pocket style, the one-button barrel cuffs, the front placket, the curved hem and the mother of pearl buttons to match. Proper Cloth does not offer a long point collar in this form, so we used its soft point collar instead. The cloth is heavier than the original, and the shirt as made also has a split yoke and a button on the sleeve placket.

A 100% cotton flannel woven from two-ply yarns and given a fine brushed finish, so it is soft on the skin. It is heavyweight and warm but still breathes well. The detailed plaid layers shades of charcoal grey and slate, and the cloth suits wear as a shirt or as an overshirt.
