Product Information

Full details

This Barbour Gordon Summer Fit Shirt is designed for adult males seeking a comfortable yet stylish warm-weather option. Its key benefit lies in its breathable cotton and linen blend and classic tartan pattern, making it suitable for both casual outings and smart-casual events. A potential caveat for some users might be its tailored fit, which may feel snugger than a relaxed fit.

FAQs

What is the primary material of this shirt?

The Barbour Gordon Summer Fit Shirt is crafted from a blend of 79% Cotton and 21% Linen Plain Weave, offering a soft finish.

How does the 'Tailored Fit' differ from a regular fit?

A tailored fit is designed to be more fitted through the body and sleeves, creating a sharper, more contemporary silhouette compared to a standard or relaxed fit.

Is this shirt suitable for very hot weather?

Yes, the cotton and linen blend is chosen for its breathability and comfort, making it a good option for warm weather.

Can I wear this shirt for formal occasions?

This shirt is best suited for casual to smart-casual occasions. Its tartan pattern and short sleeves make it less appropriate for formal events.

How should I care for the branded label?

The Barbour and Shield branded label on the chest pocket should be treated like the rest of the shirt during washing and ironing, following the care instructions provided.

What does 'Summer Fit' imply?

'Summer Fit' typically indicates a lighter fabric weight and a cut designed for warmer weather, often with shorter sleeves.

Does the shirt come in other colours or patterns?

While this specific product is the 'Oban Mist Tartan', Barbour offers various shirts in different patterns and colourways. Please check other product listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears to have shrunk after washing

Ensure you followed the recommended washing and drying instructions. Avoid high heat settings for both washing and drying. If shrinkage is significant, try gentle stretching while damp and air drying.

Wrinkles are difficult to remove

Try ironing the shirt while it is slightly damp. Alternatively, use a steam iron or a fabric steamer. Ensure the iron is set to the appropriate temperature for cotton and linen blends.

Colour fading

Wash the shirt inside out in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

Stitching or seams coming undone

Inspect the affected area. Minor issues can often be repaired with a needle and thread. For significant damage, consider taking it to a professional tailor or seamstress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and appearance of your Barbour Gordon shirt:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry to prevent shrinkage and preserve fabric integrity.

  5. Dry Cleaning: Professional dry cleaning is not typically required but can be an option if preferred.
