For your consideration is this vintage Pendleton flannel made from 100% virgin wool. For more than 150 years, Pendleton has set the standard for American style. With six generations of family ownership, the company remains dedicated to its American heritage, authenticity and fabric craftsmanship. Wool shirts for men were largely utility items in the early 20th century. Drab in design and color, they were worn for warmth and protection from the elements by those who worked outdoors. Clarence Morton (C.M.) Bishop had a vision for wool shirts in vivid colors and intricate patterns. The production of woolen shirting material was a natural extension of the mill's capabilities. In 1924, the legendary Pendleton virgin wool men's shirt was born. By 1929, Pendleton was making a full line of men's virgin wool sportswear. The flannel features mother of pearl style snap buttons. It features a plaid design with grayish blues, deep blues, and beige squares. The flannel shows good condition with no signs of obvious damage. The flannel is a men's large.
