50s Men's Retro Casual Shirt

Hip, ultra-rare sports shirt with unique optional front yoke design and ever important chest pocket. This men's sport shirt can be made in a more traditional style, with front button placket, back yoke and breast pocket, plus split sides seams at the hem for added comfort. Or, switch things up, and go for the interesting front yoked design, which is a pull-over style with no button placket and also includes the split hem. Both styles feature a flattering, wide collar and can be made as long or short sleeved. The long sleeved variations finish pleated into a cuff.
