DESCRIPTION
Rooted in the legacy of Bradford-born weaver Thomas Kay - who journeyed to the Pacific Northwest in the 1860s to build a textile empire - the Big Pocket Shirt is a standout piece from Pendleton’s Europe-exclusive Journey West collection.
Crafted with classic workwear heritage at its core, this shirt honours original Jacquard traditions while delivering modern versatility. It is constructed from a heavy 330GSM 100% cotton checked fabric, semi-washed and double-brushed to achieve an authentically soft, vintage feel right out of the box.
Designed to be worn effortlessly as an overshirt, the semi-relaxed fit leaves plenty of room for comfortable layering over a tee or knit. Functional details like two oversized buttoned chest pockets and rich horn buttons reinforce its utilitarian roots without sacrificing style.

PROVENANCE AND ETHICS
Pendleton's family history in Oregon dates back to 1863 when Thomas Kay, a young English weaver opened his own mill in Salem, Oregon. In 1909 Thomas's three grandsons, Clarence Morton Bishop, Royal Thomas Bishop, and Robert Chauncey Bishop opened Pendleton Woolen Mills. Six generations later Pendleton Woolen Mills is still run in Oregon by the Bishop family.
