Now here’s a style you don’t see on the high street often. But you can get these budget button-down popover shirts at Uniqlo right now.
I associate the popover with the likes of Beams Plus and John Simons. Some nice Far Afield x Madras Shirting Co popover shirts last year too.
The point I’m making is that the popover is noticeable when it lands as it’s a style you probably associate more with the 1950s and 1960s. It’s a classic ivy league style.
So seeing them at Uniqlo is surprising. If you want one, get in early as I am guessing stock level won’t be massive and demand might be higher than Uniqlo is expecting.
There are two check cloths to pick from, as well as a blue and white stripe and a yellow stripe alternative. All of which are pictured here.
Cotton construction as you might have guessed, each with the button-down collar, four-button placket and the chest pocket. Short sleeves for all, not least because this is new stock for the summer.
All the sizes and a price of £19.90 for each. It looks like stock levels are already getting hit so if you want to make sure you have a few in the wardrobe this summer, I suggest you get in early and put them away.
You can get the check shirts here and you can get the striped shirts here.
