The red plaid hits the right note between ranchwear and everyday, and the short sleeve makes it genuinely wearable across the warmer months. The poly-cotton blend is worth a note: the polyester used in garments of this era was a finer, more refined fibre than its reputation suggests — it holds colour well, resists fading, and wears lightly in warmer weather. Snaps intact, fabric crisp, and the yoke detailing as sharp as it should\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize on garment: M\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur modern sizing estimate: XL                                                                                                         \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShoulder to shoulder: 18\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePit to pit: 22\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInner sleeve to cuff: S\/S\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnder collar to lower back: 31|\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition Notes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease be aware. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected.
