Our 1988 two pocket shirt made with a 55% cotton / 45% linen Japanese made fabric.  Cut and sewn in San Francisco. This shirt runs a bit big (the linen/cotton shrinks more than other fabrics) Fit Guide

A NOTE FROM PETE & TONY

All of us have a favorite this, that or the other. I have my old denim jacket with a hand painted lightning bolt from my then 5th grade daughter. Tony has an old shirt of ours from 8 years ago that he would say is his favorite. I know it is since he wears the thing a couple of times every week, just like I wear that jacket of mine.

It is an easy reach in the morning when it is time to get dressed and that is a bit of our raison d'être so to speak - make things that last and that you reach for without even knowing why in that morning hustle we all share.

Now, that fabric in Tony's old shirt is the real kicker here. Made in Japan with a cotton / linen blend, and a nice shade of deep indigo. These shirt fabrics come and go and through a deep dive looking for the next run of shirts to make, Tony found some out in the wild. We gobbled it up and sent it off to be cut and sewn. This time, we made it in our 1988 body style, which is a classic men's shirt with two chest pockets and a wee pencil holder sewn into one of them.

This is fraiche out of the box and ready to ship so enjoy this fine shirt.

All the best,

Tony Patella

    The shirt is light annd warm, annd the details show a lot of care. I can see how this will be in play for years. Earlier comments on size were helpful. I’m 6’ and 200 lbs and the large was a bit roomy.

    Bought this shirt as an item of the week. First purchase from Tellason and I’m an immediate fan. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are top-shelf, and I’m usually pretty hard to please. See sizing info above. I have long arms and an athletic build—shirt feels like it’s tailor made for me. Bravo guys! I can see this is now just the beginning of my relationship with Tellason.
