Pendleton
US-Made Board Shirt
US-Made Board Shirt
The Pendleton woolen "Board Shirt" is a must-have for anyone lookin' to lasso some plaid perfection! Made from 100% pure Pendleton virgin wool, this shirt packs rugged charm with just the right touch of class.
This beauty is likely from the 1960s, and yet it's in near-perfect condition. No moth holes in sight (which is a small miracle for vintage Pendletons)! You might spot one if you’re eagle-eyed, but even then, this shirt’s condition is top-notch.
Now, don’t forget—vintage Pendletons are a bit high maintenance and should be dry cleaned. We once washed one in cold water, and it turned out alright, but we’d still advise against takin' any chances with this gem! Keep it safe, cowboy!

The Pendleton Board Shirt
The Pendleton Board Shirt is a legend in its own right. Back in the 50s, Pendleton whipped up this woolen wonder for surfers in chilly California waters. It was warm as a campfire on a cold night and stylish enough to turn heads from the beach to the bar. With its straight-cut hem, it was perfect for that laid-back, untucked look surfers loved.
The Beach Boys were such big fans of Pendleton they originally called themselves "The Pendletones!" They famously wore Pendleton Board Shirts on the cover of their debut album "Surfin' Safari", released in 1962. The shirt became a symbol of cool, blending surf culture with timeless cowboy craftsmanship. Even today, it’s still a go-to for anyone who loves a bit of classic, rugged style.
