Meridian Shirt

From the Summer 1988 Catalogue: “Like the meridian (longitude) lines on the map, the stripes woven into our crisp poplin shirt run straight and true. The smooth, tightly woven cotton remains unflappable even when the sun’s at its meridian (noon); the styling is classic enough for London, on the Greenwich Meridian (0° longitude), yet comfortable enough for tropical Midway on the International Dateline Meridian (180° longitude). Best of all, this is a shirt cut roomy enough to accommodate one’s personal longitude…and latitude.”
