REDUCED C19th bib front shirt (SH160R)
Description
The metal clips in packaging have caused very small rust stains on some of the right hand cuffs. Because of this we have reduced all the stock. The image shows the worst case mark. You may be lucky and find there is no mark at all. These are also made from a slightly different fabric to our stock SH160's. The cotton is less optic white than our stock shirts.
The plain front of this shirt reflects the growing austerity in men's clothing.
After much experimentation we have found a cotton cambric which replicates the crisp cotton used in C19th. It is a humble cloth and the odd flaws adds to the very authentic look.
These shirts were customarily worn with separate stiff collars so the neckbands are made with the appropriate buttonholes.
Single cuff.
Era: 1880-1910.
Care Information
100% Cotton Cambric. Machine washable at 30 degrees
Size Guide
For our SH160 we recommend measuring around your neck and ordering the required size. Please note the neckband may have an additional 0.5-1 inches added to allow for shrinkage.
If ordering a separate collar we advise ordering the shirt true to your neck size and ordering your separate collar 0.5" up. For example, if you are a 16" neck order a 16" shirt and a 16.5" separate collar.
