Men's flannel shirt 1937 plaid

The model for this shirt made of warming cotton flannel is an American work shirt from the late 1930s. Its roomy cut makes it comfortable to wear. The shirt has two patterned patch breast pockets, the right of which is buttoned. The left pocket with the rather unusually shaped opening in the upper corner is a so-called smoker's pocket. At that time, smoking was still commonplace and this pocket was just big enough to hold a cigarette soft pack and you could take out a cigarette without having to pull out the whole pack. Additionally, this bag is equipped with a pen divider.

The Pike Brothers label from Bad Feilnbach in Upper Bavaria proves with garments inspired by textiles from the world of workwear that form and functionality are not mutually exclusive. While creative minds in other companies have to work out their cuts, the Pike Brothers collect, dissect and finally reconstruct historical originals from a wide variety of workspaces. Different material requirements and cuts are taken into account on a one-for-one basis. Fabrics are reissued in collaboration with traditional weaving mills. Finally, the Pike Brothers have the garments made by hand from selected European tailors. The resulting products tell a story by dint of their appearance. Moreover, they are proving themselves in practice, just like their historical role models did, to be highly functional and to offer the highest comfort – no matter what the activity.
