What’s it made of?
The 1937 Roamer Shirt is made from 100% cotton, with a substantial fabric weight of 305 g/m². The Blue Wabash Denim features a traditional American workwear print, giving the shirt its distinctive striped appearance. It's a sturdy, breathable fabric that feels reassuringly substantial and will gradually soften with wear, developing more character as it ages.
Cleaning & care
Machine wash your Pike Brothers 1937 Roamer Shirt at 30°C on a gentle cycle, turning it inside out to help protect the Wabash pattern. Wash with similar dark colours using a mild detergent, and avoid bleach. Hang it to air dry rather than tumble drying to minimise shrinkage and preserve the cotton fabric. Iron on a medium setting if needed, preferably while the shirt is still slightly damp.
