Oversized Corduroy Shirts

Oversized corduroy shirts in earth tones have taken over campus this fall. The appeal is partly about texture and partly about how a shirt 2 sizes too large makes everything feel informal and comfortable. Wide wale corduroy has ridges you can feel with your fingers. When you roll the sleeves up, the fabric holds its shape without sliding back down. Wearing one with jeans feels like being in a costume of someone who has their life together, without actually requiring any effort.
