Where could I buy nice cotton checked shirts from. The nice ones, where the checked pattern is blended. They seem to be more popular in america than anywhere else. And I dont mean the country and western checked shirts, more lumberjack type but not. Im having trouble finding a pic yet ive seen loads at one time.

Perhaps Browns on the high street or some other "outdoors" shop ?

Here are some belters (http://www.monstervintage.com/Vintage_Clothing/Mens/Pendleton/Shirts+Jackets+Pants/list_040_000.html) ......if you like that sort of thing...

Try Google 'check shirt' and clicking 'images' so you can find us one to look at :thumbsup:

Then we can tell you were in Sheffield you can get them ;)

'nice checked shirts'....oxymoron.
why o why?

Don't they normally have loads of that type of thing at these huge discount stores like TJ Hughes and TK Maxx etc . . . if not, I do remember seeing some in Makro the last time I was there.

Not the best of pictures but check out what Kurts wearing...

Those (http://lianafriedenbach-kurtcobain.weblogger.com.br/img/kurt.jpg) went out of fashion years ago, didn't they? :(

Were they ever in fashion? If they were I doubt they were main stream. I just like the look of them I don't care who else is wearing them.

therefore it's "retro" now.

Yeah, they were very 'Top Man' when Grunge was the thing

Checked shirts always remind me of the Village People or the Monty Python lumberjack song.

Anything like this?
