The Shaftsbury Shirt is our take on a classic “camp shirt”, its name being a nod to Lake Shaftsbury in southern Vermont, where I spent countless days as a kid splashing around, hiking, exploring, playing field games, building sand castles, and frequenting the snack shack, of course. Want to hear about my summer camp adventures? Well, that’s a story for another day.
This short sleeved (but not too short to cuff, if that’s your jam) shirt features a vintage floral tablecloth that is lightweight linen - it is not fully opaque. It has pearl snap closures, an open collar, and boxy fit.
As this is made from a vintage tablecloth that has lived a full life before becoming a piece of wearable art, it is possible it shows its age in the form of some discolorations and wear to some of the fabrics. These areas are viewed not as defects, but merely giving it character and a nod to its past life. Please review the photos as returns are not accepted.
