Pike Brothers
We have stocked Pike Brothers from Germany for almost ten years and for good reason, they produce consistently high quality garments with attention to detail to fabrics and manufacturing. Their reproduction of the N1 Deck jacket is one of the best we’ve seen as are their henley shirts, just the right fit and fabric. The original company Pike Brothers started in 1883 and supplied work wear and military uniforms through out the world wars. In 2008, In Bavaria the brand relaunched with the same ethos, to produce faithful reproductions of those timeless garments.
1963 Polo Shirt Royal Brown
The polo shirt originated in the early 20th century and was originally developed for tennis. A French tennis pro in the 1920s designed a short-sleeved, comfortable shirt made of breathable cotton piqué that offered more freedom of movement than the long-sleeved shirts common at the time. Although it was intended for tennis, it quickly became particularly popular in polo. The polo shirt made its triumphant entry into the fashion world in the 1950s thanks to various Hollywood stars and the preppy style.
Our 1963 polo shirt originates from this very era and is both casual and elegant, without losing its sporting origins. The waffle fabric we use is crisp and comfortable to wear.

1943 CPO Shirt Tijuana yellow
The U.S. Navy CPO Shirt, also known as the Chief Petty Officer Shirt, is undoubtedly a timeless classic among outdoor shirts. This garment was designed to withstand the harsh conditions on the decks of ships. Over the years, certain materials and cuts in maritime clothing have proven to be particularly suitable.
The 1943 CPO Shirt is an outstanding example of the evolution of these garments. Originally conceived in the 1930s, the cut and material have only undergone slight changes over the decades. Some of the distinctive features of this shirt are:
1. **Freedom of Movement:** The fit of this shirt provides excellent freedom of movement, which is crucial for work aboard ships. Chief Petty Officers (CPOs) had to be able to move freely in their shirts to efficiently perform their duties.
2. **Two Large Chest Pockets:** This shirt has two generous chest pockets. These pockets provide storage space for tools, personal items, or other important things that a sailor might need on board.
3. **Material:** Originally, CPO shirts were made from heavy wool fabric to provide warmth and protection from the elements. Over the decades, various materials have been experimented with. In this case, the fabric is exclusively woven in Portugal and, in the typical fashion of flannel, is brushed accordingly. This process makes the fabric particularly soft and comfortable to wear.
4. **Weight:** The fabric of this shirt weighs 152 grams. This weight is sufficient to provide warmth without being too heavy or cumbersome.
The 1943 CPO Shirt is a timeless classic that embodies the tradition and functionality of maritime clothing. It is a symbol of durability and practicality, and its design elements have been preserved over the years to meet the demands of sailors.
