Ecru and Green Chevron Cotton Rugby Shirt

This vintage-inspired rugby shirt, crafted from densely knitted cotton, balances casual and tailored elegance. Featuring a refined cut with a trimmer body and higher armholes, it can seamlessly transition from weekends in chinos to more polished looks with tailoring. The contrasting collar and ribbed hems add subtle style points, making it a versatile essential for any wardrobe. Ideal for layering or standalone wear, it champions comfort without sacrificing sophistication. From the brand: The rugby shirt has steadily become a staple of our collections, and this time around is no different. Cut from a densely knitted cotton, our idiosyncratic take on an enduring bit of vintage sportswear has a substantial feeling to it, as well as a certain tactility. For our rugbies, we created a pattern inspired by our shirts – the collar in particular takes its cues from our ‘English Classic’ style – by working closely with our shirtmakers to create a fit that is a bit less baggy and sporty, and more refined and elegant. The resulting pattern was one with a slightly trimmer body and a higher armhole, making the shirts perfect for wearing with tailoring, unlike their more traditionally shaped cousins. As Creative Director Michael Hill puts it: “These are great to wear on the weekend with a pair of old chinos, or a pair of jeans, but I think it’s a piece that also serves as a bridge to more tailored looks. You can wear it under a jacket, or with a suit even, and it doesn’t look out of place. Rugby shirts work hard, and I think ultimately that’s the hallmark of a really indispensable item for a lot of men. You can live in them."" 100% Cotton Made in Portugal Ribbed Hem and Cuffs Rubber Buttons Covered Placket Contrasting Collar Fits True to Size, for Layering, Consider Sizing Up Please contact our team for sizing advice at productenquiries@drakes.com
