JOE McCOY PANAMA SHIRT L/S

The Joe McCoy PANAMA SHIRTS, now available in MILK and BLACK are 1950s-era reproduction button-up spread collar summer shirts. This 100% cotton basket weave fabric is traditionally loosely and thickly woven, to keep air circulating through the garment, without compromising structure.

The basket weave refers to when the warp and weft threads interlace to create a simple criss-cross pattern. This technique itself is sometimes referred to as the Panama Weave, deriving from the construction technique of a Panama Hat. This technique gives a distinctive texture to the surface.

The Long-Sleeved Panama Shirt features a loop collar, with single needle cotton thread construction throughout and contrasting shell buttons on a widened button placket. To the front, a single pocket at the chest and at the back, a pleated yoke for ease in back/shoulder articulation.
