1970s | Unbranded | Patterned Polyester Shirt – XXL

Description:

Item:
1970s patterned polyester shirt with a strong geometric repeat design and classic wide-collar cut. Lightweight but structured, designed to hold its shape and colour over long-term wear. A proper example of period synthetic tailoring.

Era:
1970s

Brand:
Unbranded

Condition:
Some visible marks consistent with genuine use, exactly what you expect from a shirt that lived a real life in club competition and social wear. Nothing that detracts from its presence, and the patina only strengthens the authenticity and character.

Provenance Note:
This is important-era polyester, not modern fast-fashion synthetic. In the late 1960s and 1970s, polyester was engineered as a premium fabric choice, prized for strength, colour retention, crease resistance, and long-term performance. It was built to last decades, not seasons, which is why shirts like this still present so well today. Pieces like this represent the peak of polyester’s design and manufacturing era, when it was used for quality, not cost cutting, and they’ve become increasingly collectible as true icons of 1970s fashion engineering.

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.
