Floral shirts? pah!* Some shirts have one flower, even two. But we need an entire forest to satisfy our horticultural clothing needs. Valentino, that perma-tanned gift from God, gets us. He’s given us the forest on a shirt, which is what we need in these tough times. (Colette)

Another impressive offering from the folks at Rising Sun, we were going to get carried away with wordy descriptions but we’ll let this be a straight from the horses mouth situation. “Our Farmer Shirt continues the rugged traditions of pre-1900′s work shirts. Made from wabash printed dot-stripe black selvage twill, it features the half placket pullover design favored by farmers of the time. With it’s bib front and secure chin strap it can stand up to the toughest abuse and protect the wearer from the harshest conditions. Gussets at the side seams feature selvedge edges, while the unique chest pockets mix the formality of welt pockets with the function of flaps. Beautiful mother of pearl fish-eye buttons add the final touch of polish. Our ancestors my not have looked this classy but that’s no reason you shouldn’t.” We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.

Stevenson Overall Company venture into Henley territory with this one. A nice in between item for those wavering from tee to sweatshirt, the waffle knit really does offer extra warmth and looks rather smart in that ‘cowboy undergarment’ kind of way. SOC are masters at recreating classic American pieces, so of course this henley is Made in Japan. 100% cotton, mother of pearl buttons, canvas underarm panels – the Stevenson stamp on the placket is a nice touch. Find it at End Clothing.

As much as we love military repros, many of the more authentic pieces look great on the hanger but put them on and you end up feeling a like you’ve hired a costume for a historic reenactment. This USMC shirt from Buzz Rickson is so innately stylish, perhaps by accident, perhaps by design, that it allays all our fears and makes us want to immediately part with our hard earned cash. Herringbone twill cotton, USMC donut buttons and breast pocket stamp. Sign us up.

Cut and sewn in Los Angeles, these new tartan overshirts from Left Field are made from 100% cotton 12oz American tartan twill. That makes them very heavy; you can wear them as an overshirt if you like. It is also slim fit so if you plan on wearing it a bit more baggy, be sure to size up. Also features  corozo buttons and an old school “union” tag.

Not had enough of floral patterns? Of course you haven’t. And if you have, you read too many blogs (including this one). It’s one of those trends that hasn’t found its way into real life yet. And by real life we mean it’s unlikely you’ll see a guy on public transport with one. Of course it’s already big in trend epicentres like fashion shows but they don’t count as real life (or as street style, but that’s a different argument). So you can buy this shirt with the knowledge that you won’t see anyone on the street with the same shirt as you. Unless you go to a fashion event – then you’ll probably run into someone with one.

It’s hard not to feel weary of rugby shirts. The skin tight numbers currently on show at the World Cup aren’t really our thing and as much as we like the old school variety they instantly make us think of braying Hooray Henrys swigging pints at the student union bar. However, we’ll set our prejudices aside, especially when it comes to Archival Clothing who rarely put a foot wrong. This 10 ounce cotton knitted jersey is produced in Oregon by Columbiaknit. Soft but tough enough to withstand the most violent of scrums, we might just have to rethink our view on this old classic.
