Sneak Peek: Hamilton 1883 Spring 12

I just received a sneak peek of Hamilton 1883's Spring delivery yesterday. Hamilton 1883 always manages to maintain a classic aesthetic for their shirting combined with the proper fit and attention to detail. The company has been around for 129 years having started out as a custom shirt maker. In this time, they've been able to carefully maintain the brand integrity throughout the evolution of this company. All of their shirting is made by hand in their Houston factory with attention given to the fit, fabrics and details.

I picked this selection of shirts to highlight as I appreciate the use of cotton/linen blends coupled with the lighter polka dot prints, the mix of various components like dual button down pockets, western cut yokes and button down collars. I'm not usually known for buying short sleeve shirts as I prefer to roll my sleeves but I have a feeling a few of these will end up finding their way into my closet for Spring & Summer.

"Each is made in our Houston workshop where we oversee all aspects of design and construction. Every Hamilton shirt is hand cut according to a paper pattern using only the world's finest fabrics. Passed down through four generations of family, Hamilton shirts are more than our product, they're our legacy."
