A men's casual checked shirt in a breathable performance fabric — hard-wearing, relaxed fit and built for the kind of day that starts in the field and ends at the pub. Cool, dry and comfortable from the first wear.
FIT & SIZING
The Drifter Shirt is cut with a relaxed fit in breathable Coolmax® fabric, with plenty of room through the chest and shoulders to move freely from the paddock to the pub. The performance fabric keeps you cool and dry without clinging, so it wears just as easily buttoned up as it does thrown open over a tee.
Fit: Relaxed through the chest and shoulders, never tight or restrictive
Layering: Works as a standalone casual layer, or open over a tee on cooler days
Movement: Coolmax® stretch and a roomy cut give you freedom through the shoulders and arms
Body: Shaped hem sits comfortably tucked or untucked without bunching
Arms: Full-length sleeves with room to roll up when it warms up
Overall feel: Lightweight, breathable and quick-drying, cool from the first wear
Sizing: Available in XS to 4XL; true to size, so order your usual fit
