Yarmouth Oilskins Admiralty Shirt - Navy

The Admiralty Shirt is an ideal travel companion, the cotton linen mix is hard wearing whilst always looking good. Dress it up or down effortlessly. 

Yarmouth Oilskins use a yarn dyed twill weave cloth, which is a cotton - linen blend. The linen gives the fabric a great rumpled appearance with the occasional slub which gets even better when it’s washed and worn. The style is collarless with a narrow stand collar band, and a half front placket. They have used natural Corozo buttons also made in England.

Made in Great Yarmouth, Great Britain

Taking inspiration from the traditional Grandfather collar shirt - originally worn by workers, farmers and factory hands during the 1920's and 30's. The story goes that since these trades didn’t wear a tie for fear of it getting stuck in the machinery, as a result they adopted a shirt with a simple band collar.
