50s/60s US-Made Sir Pendleton Shirt

Step into refined mid-century menswear with this exceptional “Sir Pendleton” shirt, dating back to the late 1950s or early 1960s. The Sir Pendleton line was Pendleton’s premium dress shirt offering—elevating their famed woolen craftsmanship with finer fabrics and a sharper, more tailored look.

A Gentleman’s Pendleton

Unlike their rugged wool flannels or outdoor-oriented pieces, Sir Pendleton shirts were marketed to the sophisticated man. These shirts were typically made from long-staple cotton or worsted merino wool that was smoother and more refined—intended to be worn in town, to the office, or for dinner, not the forest. The branding spoke to status: “Sir” for the man who wanted Pendleton quality with an urban, elegant edge.

Features:

• Color: A luminous cream tone, subtle yet striking—perfectly capturing the understated confidence of mid-century American style.
• Pocket: Single buttoned chest pocket, clean and classic.
• Hem: Straight hem with side vent cuts—designed to be worn untucked if desired.
• Tag Size: L, but fits closer to a modern Medium-Large due to vintage sizing norms.
• Origin: Naturally, Made in the USA during Pendleton’s golden era of quality and design.
• Condition: In wonderful condition, especially for its age—no stains, holes, or signs of wear. This is a true vintage find and a rare one in this color and state.

Perfect for collectors, vintage enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates the clean elegance of a bygone era. These early Sir Pendleton shirts don’t come around often—especially not like this.
