Looking for a Chambray Shirt
I'm located in Europe and I wanted to add a Chambray Shirt to my wardrobe. Budget is around 50 euros. But if it should be higher please let me know. I want a roomier and perhaps slightly flowy fit. I already have one from Uniqlo, which is ok but a bit short
As this would be one of my first chambray shirts I'm basically looking for the archetypal one. Light blue colour and two chest pockets would be good. Added a pic of the look I'm going for

at 50eur you shouldn't (country dependent?) be hit by taxes if you ship from the UK?
Absolutely loads available second hand for that price point
Where would you look second hand? I wanted to check the local shops at some point but I'm not sure if they would have that style
Thanks for the suggestion and I do see a few that I like. 18 Pound delivery charges make the whole thing a bit difficult though
Ah, didn't spot that sorry!
no worries. Shipping costs are often the big issue with going vintage
I do wonder if there is a continental alternative to marrkt
I got a second hand momotaro chambray for £50 off ebay. Sometimes you just get lucky
if you aren't in a rush to get it
I got a vintage polo one off eBay for $40 that was being sold by mr porter in a similar style for $200
Although the buttons pop open all the time because they are very slippery. Not complaining but should be noted
Is there a Muji in Germany?
yes
I’ve got this one https://www.hast.fr/fr/chemise-classique-en-chambray-bleu-fonce-634.html

Chemise chambray bleu foncé : coupe ajustée et col fin à boutons cachés qui allie modernité et classicisme, en chambray 100% coton
looks good. I think I want one with pockets though
Maybe this one ? It’s a nice brand but maybe a little bit above your budget https://www.hast.fr/fr/chemise-en-chambray-bleue-1401.html

Chemise en chambray bleue
Inspiré des chemises de l'US Navy des années 60, découvrez notre chemise en chambray bleue et recevez la à votre domicile ou dans l'une de nos boutiques.
looks nice I will consider it
thanks
Yes but the clothes side is kinda small at least online. They always seem to have just a few items and the ones they have are often only available in selected sizes
Considering this one
Just an fyi both stateside and in Europe (went in one on a whim when I visited) the actual physical locations tend to have much more/wider variety
Though at least in the one I went it seemed like less selection than US stores, slimmer fits
Makes sense. I will have to check when I'm in a city with one
Has anyone mentioned bronson mfg
Bronson
U.S.N. Chambray Shirt
Based on a US Navy work shirt. This U.S.N. Chambray Shirt is made of 7 oz. selvedge chambray fabric, 100% cotton, and the symmetrical double patch pockets and navy urea buttons.
Idk the conversion from dollars but this might be close to your budget
Looks good I might need to check the measurements
Vinted? Not quite so easy to find something you want, but worth a shot
I'm sometimes a bit weary about Asian market in regards to sizing but Bronson does look intriguing. They carry a style that is sometimes hard to find on a budget
Yeah also need to check the local stores at some point if I find the time
I looked at some of their trousers before but sadly they often seem a bit short
Although maybe 32 inches is ok when my true size is 34. Will fit a bit higher but idk
does anyone have this shirt? It looks ok but smth seems off about it

I think it's the carharrt Fort shirt. Just weird that it sometimes has a logo and sometimes does not
