Chevron Flame Rugby Ecru/Navy
Now a firm staple of Drake's collections, their vintage inspired Rugby's are cut from a densely knitted cotton and built to stand the test of time. Their idiosyncratic take on an enduring bit of vintage sportswear has a substantial feeling to it, as well as a certain tactility. Created from a pattern inspired by Drakes classic shirts, to create a fit that is a bit less baggy and sporty, and more refined and elegant. The resulting pattern was one with a slightly trimmer body and a higher armhole, making the shirts perfect for wearing with tailoring, unlike their more traditionally shaped cousins.
- 100% Cotton
- Made in Portugal
- Ribbed Hem and Cuffs
- Rubber Buttons
- Covered Placket
- Contrasting Collar
- Fits True to Size, for Layering, Consider Sizing Up.
Creative Director Michael Hill puts it like this... “These are great to wear on the weekend with a pair of old chinos, or a pair of jeans, but I think it’s a piece that also serves as a bridge to more tailored looks. You can wear it under a jacket, or with a suit even, and it doesn’t look out of place. Rugby shirts work hard, and I think ultimately that’s the hallmark of a really indispensable item for a lot of men. You can live in them."
If you know... you know! Drake’s was founded by Michael Drake in East London in 1977, a short walk from the city’s silk weaving roots in Spitalfields. Originally a maker of men’s ‘Scarves, Shawls and Plaids,’ the company soon expanded into handmade ties and handkerchiefs, its designs gaining a reputation for quality amongst the high-end boutiques and department stores of Paris, Milan, Tokyo and New York.
