Wardrobe essential: The country shirt

When it comes to country outfitters, Cordings are up there with the best. Having been situated at their iconic Piccadilly store since 1877, the brand have been the go-to destination for well-heeled country gents for well over a century. Indeed, according to the Duke of Wellington, Cordings is ‘the complete outfitter, you have everything under one roof’. Whether you’re in the market for a timeless raincoat or a tailored tweed jacket, you can be assured Cordings will have it. This, of course, applies to shirts too.

Situated a stone’s throw away from the mecca of British shirt making, Jermyn Street, Cordings offer a number of reasons to make the walk across Piccadilly, especially if you have a penchant for the countryside. Of the many styles that make up their collection, the Tattersall line stands out. Constructed from a superior brushed cotton flannel, they are built to last whether you’re on a grouse moor or frolicking around the city.

The Tattersall shirt is as versatile as they come. Although a traditionally casual shirt, they can be smartened up with a silk neck tie and sharp brogues. Equally dashing when paired with jeans though, the Tattersall shirt is available in a range of colours and patterns. Here are 4 of our favourites.
