Recs for big boxy lightweight summer shirts
Really been loving this shirt I got from Kapital and would like to add maybe one more similar style to my summer arsenal.
Requirements: - sub $200 - boxy fit - short sleeve - lightweight material (i really like the guazy type of fabric this kap one used) - ideally offered in another color than white

Sadly most of the recs here are for long sleeve

you could chop
but heard
i love a big half sleeve there aren’t a ton of good ones
Thank you so much for this extensive list! Sadly i didnt really find anything that fit with in my desired parameters.
LEJ come up to camp
i’m being trolled
Seems like there arent a ton of short sleeve boxy options out there maybe kapital is an outlier with it. Some of them were kinda there but either only in white color or just like standard cotton oxford type fabric which id like something a it lighter

Bonne Nouvelle - I never thought I’d wear short sleeves until I saw them like this!

i do think 100% cotton can be misleading tho
depends on the weave

This is pretty cool! Love the color and that its linen but not exactly boxy, i suppose i could just hem it
The ol one is cool wish they offered it in other colors
Yeah the stuff is real wide but not super boxy although I wear mine untucked all the time and kinda fw it a lot

Split back yoke with a box pleat ensures a comfortable fit and a greater range of motion. This purple and white stripe 100% linen button down shirt. Excellent used condition. No holes or stains. The shirt for sale is purple stripes.
aww : ( they come super huge though, i think the p2p on that size 40 is like 28
Ah ok the site only gave a length and said regular fit so i assumed it would be much to small
Oh this is dope! Might be a perfect option
i’m ngl if you don’t cop i might
Sorry i understand i’m being difficult i just really like the one i got from kapital and it seems like nothing is really hitting the same as far as material/price/measurements
no that makes sense
Its like the triangle thing, measurments, price, material but you can only pick two
there’s a fourth one which is convenience / timing / effort but yes
unfortunately you and i are not roughly the same shape as a lacrosse stick so we must suffer on some of these endeavors
God has cursed us with girth
Also you can swipe the prl shirt i just checked the measurements and i dont think its gonna quite be boxy enough for what i want
25.5in ptp not gonna cut it
pfuck
Is Ambercrombie too boring? I saw some secondhand XXLs with measurements listed as 28" ptp and 31" shoulder to hem. https://www.abercrombie.com/shop/us/p/camp-collar-summer-linen-blend-shirt-58928828?categoryId=87658&faceout=model&seq=31
