Sailing Dress shirts??

OK, this is embarrassing... I can't Search out a source for decent men's button/collared sailing shirts that are at a Yacht Club level.


Things are opening up and I find that fellow Members have some truly "Cool" shirts with sailboats of all kinds and eras.


Yet the web algorithms have no sense of quality or taste...YET
Boat Shows (common source) are still closed
Ebay and Etsy have a few ....


attached is a pic of the best I could find. Note the wind direction, sails, and flags are all wrong. Also, embroidery is not preferred.

True, I don't collect these things, nor is it my 'style', hence I'd appreciate some guidance. I just need 1 or 2 in the 40-150USD range
( most of my clothes include custom epoxy/paint patterns )

Seems some enterprising Cruiser would have made an online store, gathering all such clothing globally into a premium reseller site.....making $$ whilst sailing the Dream


Thanks ... and thanks for not trolling this too bad for being superfluous

occasionally Tommy Bahama will have something.

I usually wear collared shirts from Columbia for my 'nice' boaty clothes. No logos. ships, but cool and comfortable.

Re: Sailing Dress shirts??

Reyn Spooner shirts are my favorites. Like the pull overs but they also make button front mostly in button down collars and meant to be worn untucked. They are from Hawaii so some are flowery and loud but many are subdued patterns. Cloth is a cotton/dacron blend, wears like Iron, and don't look like you slept in them after 5 minutes on a hot day. They are expensive new but I've had good luck finding them used and some new on eBay at T-shirt prices.

Re: Sailing Dress shirts??

I buy my loud shirts at second hand shops, Nordstrom’s rack, Marshall’s, and tj maxx. The second hand shops are the best. Tartan tuxedos. Hawaiian shirts. I found a thing I hesitate to call a shirt in a shop in London that is so loud you need hearing and eye protection. It rocks.

The important thing is to have zero shame when shopping.
