In the 1970s, as the hippie movement returned to nature, outdoor enthusiasm grew rapidly in the United States. Thru-hikers and weekend campers who had broken long trails were walking around town, and outdoor wear was quickly recognized as a fashion item. One of the standard items was the heavy flannel shirt, which was originally created as a shirt for lumberjacks and other outdoor workers, making it ideal for a lifestyle that goes back and forth between the city and nature.
In the 1990s, they were once again in the limelight as an indispensable item for grunge, not to mention Kurt Cobain, but since then, they have remained out of the trend due to their heavy-duty origins and earthy smell. However, it is precisely because of this that it is interesting to choose this item now, on the eve of the American casual boom.
The checkered pattern of the flannel shirt was originally conceived to make stains less noticeable. In other words, the color and pattern are the main features and points of the shirt. In other words, the quickest and most sophisticated nell shirt coordinate can be completed by boldly using a large pattern that is drastically different from the basics and using highly saturated pale tones in the coloring. Box-hemmed items like this one can easily be layered like a shirt jacket (the essence of heavy-duty clothing is layering, after all). Since the shirt itself has impact, the key is to keep the innerwear and pants basic.
The first thing to keep in mind when choosing a flannel shirt is that it should have a color scheme and check pattern that is not found in vintage shirts. There are an almost infinite number of flannel fabrics, but surprisingly, the vintage market is dominated by earthy fabrics. If you are looking for sophisticated colors that are not too earthy, it should be easier to find them in modern items. It will also be easier to find designs that are in line with recent trends. However, the texture of the fabric is also an important element of a flannel shirt, so you can rest assured that it is made of fabric from a brand with a solid backbone, such as Big Mac, Five Brothers, or Big Yank.
