Summer Shirts
What sort of shirts are you digging for summer this year? Camp collars? Long sleeves? Rayon? Tencel? Linen? Tank tops? Some examples of stuff I’m looking at from Blue Blue Japan, OrSlow, and Kapital. Would love suggestions on dope breezy shirts for this summer. No budget, lemme see what you got.

So I got one of the DBF Artist Shirts in cotton voile, that’s real nice! I can only recommend it.
Also some seersucker in varying degrees of craziness, madras both patchwork and not.
Also twiggy and I have matching camp collar shirts and I think that’ll be the move for all the wife guys out there!
I really like the second shirt you posted here, it’s got very classic styling that I think would suit you well!
I love De Bonne Facture!
I haven’t ever really checked out their summer stuff tbh, I guess I should
NEEEEEDLES CAMP COLLAAAAAAAR
Good question. So far I have been camp breezy long sleeve, thinking of maybe dipping my toes into the short sleeve shirt game..
but outside of that my cool wavy embroidery shirt is from 11.11 and going through the rest of their catalogue now there's a lot that I'm liking. I love the fit and details on that thing so much.
I also have this really cool tencel/linen blend from La Paz I think that feels really nice and breezy but also really stiff in a way that I'm kinda obsessed with
I was also scrolling through the Portuguese Flannel catalogue and seeing all the cute embroidery stuff and getting jealous, but actual fabric feel on their stuff can be a little hit or miss IMO.
Also Portuguese flannel still cuts like it’s 2015 tbh
likely true
just hit and miss, but those designs were really speaking to me
the most tragic one was this shirt from them, they have a bunch of similar designs that I think are really cute and cool

I tried a variant of this on in store though
that shit felt like ASS on my skin lmao
to the inspo folder it goes I guess, where fabric feel don't matter
Portuguese Flannel is incredibly hit or miss fabric wise for sure. I only have one shirt from them still, but I do love it. It’s one of their seersucker shirts and I think they actually do seersucker real well
yeah just gotta touch it in person with them I think, no other way to do it
I tried on a bunch of their flannels and flannel adjacent stuff and didn't notice anything wrong myself but I'm glad to have had this experience so I viscerally know to not trust their cute pngs on the internet by default
Do you have an example of a fun one? All the ones I’m seeing look pretty plain
Lemme see if I can find and make sure I didn’t mix them up
I mean SFC does a lot of incredible summer tops.
I really dig the net knit tee I have from them: https://scottfrasercollection.com/collections/net-knit-tops

Ooo ok yeah
Is it possible I just saw cute embroidery for the first time and went “oh my god”? Perchance
the leaf lace is incredibly cool

I meant Needles. All the ones im seeing from them seem plain
Ohhhh

Japanese Typewriter Cotton Gardening Chemise in Verdigris
Meet the Gardening Chemise, a familiar cotton oxford style done in a very special cloth. Made in Japan, “Typewriter” Cotton, is a tightly woven cloth using a unique combination of both high and low twist yarns. The result is a super crisp cotton woven so tightly that it naturally repels water. All the while still being breathable and extreme...
our gang expands
yeah needles is nice for interesting metallic / textured fabrics
I own one of these, very nice shirt just compare measurements mine fits a little off from how it would ideally
Kardo is also kinda nice
I'm actually feeling like I'll be dialing it back, doing mostly a white tee summer (at least on my days off).
DBF Painter shirts this season are looking real good.

Great timing for this topic. It's already 100 degrees here. I've been looking some camp shirts from OAS. They have some fun designs.
I have their terry cloth shirt in leopard print, I wear it all of the time
Sounds like a decent buy then. I'll have to grab a couple. I've also looked at Wax of London.
I've been thinking about that shirt a lot lately. Never worn lace before, so at that price it's too risky for me to order, but the fantasy's been great
Their checker Chet knit tee, too

The tee I wore yesterday was Wax London. They’re decent.
I was looking for more expensive options with this post though tbh
Needles and SFC definitely hit the spot I think
Ah yeah someone mentioned needles cabana shirts already. But I am looking to get a couple of those to replace my beat to shit thrifted summer shirts

Ahhh so many links to check out. Laced and embroidered well repped in here. Matched pattern hawaiian shirts are fun to look at if anyone has some more obscure shops, that would be cool. Or just tell me I'm old now. Think goggins white lotus got me going.
To contribute a random shop, got a sayulita shirt co shirt a few years ago when in mx. Is cotton not rayon or anything silky so fun pattern but not beachy
just copped this camp collar from perte d'ego :)

thse sheep are super cute!
def gonna steal that motiv for some diy stuff!
