Camp shirt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A camp shirt, variously known as a cabin shirt, Cuban collar shirt, cabana shirt,[1] and lounge shirt, is a loose, straight-cut, woven, short-sleeved button-front shirt or blouse with a simple placket front opening and a "camp collar" - a one-piece collar (no band collar) that can be worn open and spread or closed at the neck with a button and loop.[2] It usually has a straight hemmed bottom falling at hip level, not intended to be tucked into trousers.[3]

While camp shirts are generally made from plain, single-color fabrics, variants include duo-tone bowling shirts and print patterned aloha shirts.
