Top Ten Summer Steals: #2 Brooks Brothers Madras Shirt
There couldn’t be a better time to get a madras shirt–seriously. When we think of summer we think of a warm night on the beach in a madras shirt and broken in chinos. Madras is one of those fabrics that has a very romantic feel to it. Your father wore it back when he was your age and now you can channel your old man for some sartorial inspiration. Like any sort of plaid, madras comes in various colors and styles, which makes finding the right one a bit of a task. When it comes to old school fabrics like this one, we usually go around the established American men’s shops for the best selection and Brooks Brothers shined the brightest of the bust.
We’re loving their slim-fit Indian madras shirt because it has a very simple design with a great color palette. Too often designers use colors that are too bright for the pattern and their shirts are over-the-top. While madras shirts are meant to be fun, you need one with balanced coloring just like Brooks Brothers’ option. While we are big fans of the shirt, it’s the price tag that really pushed us to buy it for ourselves. Now on sale for under $30, you’re not going to find a better deal than this. Head to your local Brooks Bros. or order one online.

Damn all sold out i’ve been looking for this all summer.
It’s a shame they don’t have a retailer in Europe, the shipping costs alone are twice the price of the shirt…not to mention customs might hold it…
Nevertheless great pick!
