1970s | Unbranded | Cotton Blend Bed Shirt | Tartan Check – L

Description:

Item:
Traditional 1970s bed shirt in a cotton blend tartan check, cut long with a relaxed, easy drape. Designed originally as nightwear, but now a perfect crossover piece for casual wear, layering, or oversized styling. The fabric has that soft, breathable feel you only get from proper period cotton blends.

Era:
1970s

Brand:
Unbranded

Condition:
Very good vintage condition with light, honest wear consistent with age and original use. The fabric remains strong and comfortable, with colour still holding beautifully.

Provenance Note:
Bed shirts like this sit at a lovely intersection between domestic history and modern wearable vintage. Originally made for comfort and practicality, they’ve since become cult pieces worn as relaxed day shirts, beach layers, or oversized outer shirting. The cotton blend construction makes them especially durable while keeping that soft, lived-in feel, and survivors like this are becoming increasingly hard to find in this condition.

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.

Sizing Notes:

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.
