A couple of wallet friendly shirt options from Duffer. The meadows shirt to our left; A light hickory fabric with a button down collar and single breast pocket, the smarter option of the two with a little less of that workwear feel. On the right, The Yarrow, chambray with two breast pockets, one little one big, with contrast white stitching and more casual feel. Two nice shirts. Simple. Find them at Duffer.

Workers return with a new selection of goods. The Japanese company holds a place in our hearts with its no-nonsense approach to repros. This time round they are offered two shawl collared deck jackets, one in pinstripe, one in brown herringbone; USN shirts in chambray and khaki green; a 70z cotton tool bag, and two selvedge ties. Everything is made to order, inspired by the original as well as the wealth of knowledge accrued by the label.

Oh Warehouse, you really are spoiling us. Let’s not pretend we’re tired of chambray. We weren’t even going to mention the C word but it’s time to be loud and proud. The fact is it’s a really nice fabric and it’s that bit more flexible than denim when it comes to shirting. It goes with everything and sometimes, when we get together with friends and we’re all accidentally wearing our chambray shirts, we pretend we’re in an old prison movie planning our escape using our enamel gruel dishes and some hand drawn blueprints. Erm, anyway, Mr Mudd & Mr Gold will help you out on this one.

The idea of pre-distressed jeans have become something of the past. But recently, there’s been a resurgence in this distressed styling. PRPS has been creating amazing washes on all their jeans and jackets since their inception and they’ve withstood the fad of “raw” DIY jeans. The “Chambray Denim Jacket” is one example of true PRPS styling. They offer a very dark wash with detailed washed accents throughout the piece. The jacket features “a folded collar, button down front and four front pockets.” The secret internal pocket is my favorite detail on the piece. Atrium has them.

J. Lindeberg delivers a three-layer chambray blazer and overshirt in indigo. Japanese fabrics are used on the exterior while technical taped seams are implemented on the interior. Both are water and wind proof – an added bonus on these fine garments. Expect plenty of pocket room as well for your gadgets.

This season, a plain white shirt can officially count as a curveball (the world’s gone mad, etc etc). But this is a chambray, so there’s a bit of a twist there, right? If nothing else, you can always throw paint on it if you feel it’s missing some colour. (Mr Mudd & Mr Gold)

We know you’re probably bored of chambray shirts by now, but what about chambray trousers? We’ve gotta admit, our main worry with them was that they’d be a little too lightweight. Lightweight is fine, overly light and you start resembling R. Kelly in the nineties. Thankfully these Post Overalls trousers avoid that by making just the right weight – light enough to wear in the heat of summer and heavy enough to not have you freezing during an evening cold snap. And on top of all that, you can wear chambray without looking like every other guy in chambray. (The Bureau)
