Olive Drab Vintage Fatigue Shirt

Vintage Fatigue Shirt

The Rothco Vintage Fatigue Shirt is a long-sleeve, button-front field shirt cut in the style of the classic military fatigue, or BDU (battle dress uniform) top. It is garment washed so it feels broken in from the first wear, without months of laundering first. It works as an outdoor work shirt, a light overshirt worn open over a tee, or everyday utility wear for anyone who likes the military look.

Features

• 55/45 Cotton-Poly Blend — The 55% cotton keeps the fabric comfortable against the skin, and the 45% polyester adds strength and helps the shirt hold its shape.
• Garment-Washed Finish — The shirt is washed after it is sewn, which gives it a softer, worn-in feel and reduces shrinkage once it is in your own laundry.
• Two Flap Chest Pockets — A pair of chest pockets has flaps with concealed buttons, so the fastening sits hidden under the flap and does not snag.
• Shoulder Epaulets — Buttoned fabric straps run across both shoulders, a traditional military uniform detail.
• Roll-Up Sleeve Tabs — A strap and button inside each sleeve hold the sleeves rolled up, turning the shirt into a short-sleeve shirt on warm days.
• Button Front and Cuffs — A full button placket closes the front, and single-button cuffs with sleeve plackets let you fasten or open the wrists.
• Back Yoke With Hanger Loop — A stitched yoke across the upper back carries a fabric loop for hanging the shirt on a hook.
• Shirttail Hem — The curved hem sits neatly untucked, and it is long enough to tuck in when you need to.

Fabric And Fit

This is a commercial Rothco shirt built to a vintage military pattern, not issued surplus. The cotton-polyester blend is easier to care for than all-cotton fatigues, and the pre-washed finish means the size you order should stay close to that size after washing. The shirt is shown here in olive drab with tonal buttons and a small red Rothco tag on the left pocket, and it pairs naturally with BDU or cargo pants.
