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 100% cotton. It has pearl snap closures, an open collar, boxy fit, and slightly curved back hem that is 1" longer.
As this garment was created from a vintage textile that has already lived a full life, it is possible it shows its history in the form of slightly discolored spots, mends and/or areas of wear/pilling. This contributes to the character of the garment, and serves as a reminder of the life the textile has lived, and are not viewed as defects. I do my best to capture all areas of note in photographs, however it is possible something could be missed; I am only human after all! Please see photos for overall condition as returns are not accepted - no exceptions.
