One of the first fabrics of the colonial new world by way of Manchester, gingham was mass produced in textile mills in the south east US well into the 20th century. Its simple yet elegant weave renders a reversible fabric, crisp yet soft, with varied uses from apparel to linens. Carolina's classic baby blue and white gingham check breathes life into the most dreary winter day. Few understand the journey of the Carolina shirt. Worn by you, it stands as an example of American heritage.
Carolina is part of our gingham collection of shirts which hearken back to the cool elegance of the South in the Jazz age. It features our new Semi-spread collar and mitered convertible cuffs.

Poplin, sometimes called broadcloth, is a plain weave which means the threads alternately cross over and then under each other. This results in a very smooth and durable fabric that has an almost silky hand feel, particularly with higher thread counts. Also, poplins look very crisp when ironed.
We make shirts crafted for the height of your torso (short, average, tall) and your overall build (skinny, slim, athletic, or broad). Our shirts aren't made for the masses. They're made for you.
Great fit, great fabric.
The title pretty much says it all - a fantastic shirt. Fit is trim but not tight or limiting. Fabric is soft and breathable. What more could you ask for?
