From easy to breezy, the camp collar never loses its chill
“Camping,” can mean a lot of different things to the team at Huckberry—sometimes it’s heading out for a few weeks of technical alpine climbing, and others, it’s about pulling the car into a campground, getting the grill fired up, and finding the nearest river to do some tubing.
The camp collar shirt was made for the latter. A fit that’s all about relaxation and good times, these shirts won’t work for that final pitch on Denali, but they’ll perfectly equip you to brave the long trek to the hammock, rip open a package of hot dogs with your bare hands, or take another dive to the icy depths of the beer cooler.
A Timeless Hack to Punch Up Your Summer Style
Summer and relaxation go hand-in-hand. And the camp collar shirt somehow calls to mind the vacation style of a bygone era while remaining incredibly current. The slightly boxy, open-neck silhouette makes it the unofficial shirt of summer. If you don’t believe me, just look around. Over the last few seasons, the shirt—which was once a dusty mid-century relic—has emerged as a definitive staple of stylish guys’ warm weather wardrobes.
It’s not going anywhere either. Why? Because any man can look good wearing one and the shirt provides an easy way to punch up your summer style. It stands apart from your average short-sleeved shirt since it lacks the usual collar band. The result is an inherently casual neckline that hangs loose and slightly open. The soft, flowing fabrics are equally relaxed.
A Button-Down That Screams “Out-of-Office”
There are some pieces of clothing that make you feel good. When you pull on a camp collar resort shirt, you’re transported to another place and time. You feel the breeze and the sun on the back of your neck. Hell, you can practically smell the rum and coconut. Not such a bad deal during a summer where travel feels a bit restrictive.
You can easily throw one on at the beach with your swim trunks and slides or layer one under a tailored jacket for a seasonally appropriate date. They look just as good worn open over a T-shirt with some shorts and sneakers as they do buttoned up with a nice pair of jeans and loafers.
“Like a good pair of loafers, even when they’re dressed up, the easygoing elegance never loses its chill.”
