Peldrick - Grandad Collar Shirt in Linen Blend
A grandad collar shirt in a linen and cotton blend, with a half placket and long sleeves.
A collarless shirt takes the formality out of a shirt without turning it into a T-shirt. It is the version to wear when a collar and tie would be too much and a jumper would be too little.
Why this grandad collar shirt?
- Band collar: the collar is a plain standing band with no points, which keeps the neckline clean under a jacket or on its own.
- Linen blend: linen is mixed with cotton to keep the texture of the fibre while softening the creasing that pure linen brings.
- Half placket: the buttons stop partway down the chest, so the shirt pulls on rather than opening fully.
- Relaxed body: the cut has room through the chest and waist and is designed to be worn out rather than tucked.
- Textured surface: the blend has a slubbed, uneven face that keeps a plain colour from looking flat.
Ideal for:
Men who dislike collars but still want to look dressed. It carries well on holiday, at a summer evening dinner and under a jacket in autumn.
Does linen crease?
Yes, and the blend reduces it rather than removing it. The creasing is part of how the fabric reads.
Can it be worn under a jumper?
It can, though with no collar there is nothing to show at the neck. Most people wear it on its own.
Is the fabric thin?
It is light but opaque. In White it is closer to the skin than the darker colours.
