1970s | Short Sleeve Check Shirt | Red, Navy & White – M

Description:

Description:

Item:
1970s short sleeve shirt in a bold red base with navy and white check pattern. Button-through front, classic pointed collar, and single chest pocket with carefully matched pattern placement. Clean, straightforward cut that sits perfectly within casual seventies styling, balancing colour with strong graphic structure.

Era:
1970s

Brand:
Unbranded

Condition:
Good vintage condition with light creasing consistent with age and wear. Fabric remains strong and evenly coloured, with all buttons intact and no structural issues. Honest use that adds character without affecting presentation.

Provenance Note:
This is everyday 1970s style done properly. Shirts like this were built around bold colour and confident pattern rather than subtlety, designed to be worn casually but still feel expressive. The strong check and short sleeve cut place it firmly in the decade when menswear became more relaxed without losing its sense of identity. It’s the kind of piece that feels natural to wear now because it was never trying to be trend-led, just well made and visually assured.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a story, and we cannot guarantee any item will be totally free of marks / damage but anything we think of note will be mentioned. Furthermore, a lot of vintage items gain character because of wear and tear. Buying a true vintage item is not the same as buying new and is not to be confused with second-hand clothing.

We have also tried to accurately depict each garment using a photography setup with over 90% true to life accuracy. 

We do not take photos of inside the garment.

Please take the time to measure up yourself and match to the measurements noted, the way you want the item to fit. We are only a micro business and unable to cover the costs of returns.
