Description:
Item: Heavyweight wool plaid shirt by Lobo for Pendleton, produced in a bold red and blue tartan wool with classic button-front construction, single chest pocket, and contrasting suede elbow patches. Cut long in the body with a relaxed outdoor fit, sitting firmly in the rugged shirt-jacket territory typical of Pendleton’s late 20th-century work and fieldwear output.
Era: 1980s
Brand: Lobo by Pendleton
Condition: Good vintage condition with visible wear consistent with age and use. Some small holes present at the back hem, along with general softening to the wool throughout. No structural issues elsewhere. The wear reads as honest use and contributes to the garment’s character rather than detracting from it.
Provenance Note: Lobo by Pendleton pieces were designed as hard-wearing everyday garments, often used for outdoor work, travel, and repeated seasonal wear. Repairs, thinning, and small flaws like those seen here are part of that lifecycle. These shirts were built to be worn, not preserved, and surviving examples retain their appeal precisely because they reflect that long, practical history rather than artificial perfection.

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.
