THE Ultimate ^tm Short Sleeve Sport Shirt

Harry's Shirts ^tm

Harry's grandfather, along with other pioneers, helped create the American textile industry on the banks of the Merrimack River 150 years ago. As an energetic youngster, Harry overcame asthma to excel on the playing fields in and around Boston, Massachusetts. When World War II broke out, Harry was too young to enlist, but his love of country led him to volunteer for the American Field Service, where he served with distinction as an ambulance driver under British command. 

After the war, Harry returned from overseas to join the family textile business in New York. The stress of city life and urban pollution precipitated his move down east to the Maine coast where he pursued his passions for fishing, hunting, sailing, skiing, tennis, gardening and birding. “Just following doctor’s orders”, Harry would say. 

Harry, who naturally appreciated the intricacies of finer manufacturing, was very much the “sharp dresser". For city appointments, he’d sport a two button worsted wool suit, a Sea Island cotton dress shirt and a polished pair of sturdy leather dress shoes. For his play time, which was significant, Harry always wore pima cotton woven sport shirts, generously cut, in what he he fondly referred to as “snappy patterns". As he said, “Gentlemen don’t wear knits.”

As a tribute to a gentleman, a true outdoorsman and friend, we introduce "Harry’s Shirts”, finely woven cotton sport shirts which we know Harry would have worn with pride- all in “snappy” patterns, all generous in fit and detail, and all at a fair price-in other words, a true Yankee style and a real Yankee bargain.

Available in Button Down- Sizes SM (14 1/2), MED (15 1/2), LG (16 1/2), 
XL (17 1/2), XXL (18 1/2), XXXL (19 1/2).

P.S. Any and all of our complete line of fabrics can be sewn in Harry's Short Sleeve model which is slightly wider across the shoulders than our regular dress shirt.

Because so many of our customers want a specific neck size, we do require a minimum of three of the same size when ordering sport shirts in sm, med, lg, xl, xxl or xxxl.

All our short sleeve sport shirts are same pricing as dress shirts, less $10.
