1970s US-Made Board Shirt

Surf’s up, fires are cracklin’, and the plaid is poppin’. This classic Pendleton Board Shirt from the 1970s is a piece of American style history — the kind that’s been worn on longboards, at bonfires, and in forest cabins from Oregon to upstate Maine. 

📜 The Legacy

Pendleton’s Board Shirt isn’t just a flannel—it’s a legend. First worn by California surfers in the 1960s and made famous by the Beach Boys, this wool shirt became the gold standard for West Coast cool meets mountain ruggedness. And this beauty right here? Straight from the 1970s, and Made in the USA back when every stitch was built to last.

🧵 Details Worth Noticing

• Iconic wool plaid in bold red and deep forest green — the kind of colors that get better with every decade
• Two chest pockets with bias-cut flaps (no buttons — just the way a true Board Shirt should be)
• Straight hem and clean silhouette – made to be worn loose over a tee or layered up
• Soft virgin wool — naturally warm, breathable, and surprisingly lightweight once you’ve worn it in
• Button front (not snaps) with original 1970s buttons intact
• Made in the USA – back when that meant something, and it still does

📐 Size & Fit

• Tagged size: Medium
• Fits true, with a slightly boxy vintage silhouette
• Ideal for chest sizes ~96–100 cm, but check against your best shirt if in doubt

🧼 Condition

Very good vintage condition — this shirt’s seen some years but aged gracefully. No holes, no stains, and just the right amount of character. Worn just enough to feel like an old friend, but still crisp where it counts.

🏕️ The Vibe

This isn’t fast fashion — this is the kind of shirt you inherit, or steal from your granddad and never give back. Equally at home at a coastal bonfire, logging camp, or just layered over denim in town. It’s rugged, real, and ready for a few more stories.

One shirt. One legend. One last chance to grab a real-deal Pendleton classic.
