Story

Maryland's Assateague Island is a beautiful State Park off the eastern shore that is known as the home of the Chincoteague Pony. 

Our Assateague shirt is part of a series of shirts that celebrate some of our favorite, Washington, DC area beaches and islands. The Assateague is cut from a wonderful Summer-weight pink and lavender checked poplin and features our new Hugh & Crye button-down collar.

Design

• H&C button-down collar - not too big and floppy, not too trendy-small
• Contrast gussets
• 100% two-ply Egyptian Cotton
• Environmentally safe fabric - with easy care finish for easy ironing
• H&C rounded cuffs
• Single-needle construction
• French placket

Fabric

Egyptian cotton is a particular variety that is grown in only a few other places. It is renowned as some of the best in the world. It has an extra long staple, which means it has longer fibers, resulting in a silkier, more durable fabric.Poplin, sometimes called broadcloth, is a plain weave which means the threads alternately cross over and then under each other. This results in a very smooth and durable fabric that has an almost silky hand feel, particularly with higher thread counts. Also, poplins look very crisp when ironed.

Sizing

Hugh & Crye dress shirts use a sizing system based on body types. They're ready-made fitted shirts, designed for lean and athletically built men.We make shirts crafted for the height of your torso (short, average, tall) and your overall build (skinny, slim, athletic, or broad). Our shirts aren't made for the masses. They're made for you.Dylan, above, wears Average/Slim.
