One day a while back in my past life of slave retail, a regular customer indicated his shirt to me. It looked kind of like a bowling shirt, or a cabana shirt like Tony Soprano would wear. Essentially a collared t-shirt with a couple of buttons at the top- like a polo, but the cravat was flared like a vintage bowling shirt and made from a similar light, loose fabric. He told me it was in fact a "club shirt". The purpose of such, as he explained it to me, was to serve as a type of acceptable relaxed quasi-informal wear for men who gathered in clubs in the 1950s (clubs in the sense of hobbyist or enthusiast groups and associations). I've looked for information on them but I've yet to come across anything that would validate what he said. "Club shirt" is virtually un-googleable because the vague nature of the name lends itself to all kinds of false returns. Any goons that can shine a light on the mystery of the Club Shirt? Have at it and happy posting!

So... a shirt like one would wear if you were part of a club? Like a football club? With two buttons you say?

That's part of the problem. Due to the proliferation of so-called FC "clubs" combined with the paucity of true hobbyist organizations there is a glut of shirts that fulfill the linguistically correct aspect but not the soul of the shirt. It's a drat shame

Well I mean the second one looks like it fits the bill, cut wise if too skinny a person wore it. Can you tell me what's different between that, a bowling shirt, and a polo shirt are and what you're describing given what you've said?

It's basically a bowling shirt without your name on it, or logos or anything. At least that's what he was wearing, before he started telling me about it unprompted.

the only time I've heard this term used in recent memory was when Pauly D "wrote" that book and in it he mentioned having a shirt he put on RIGHT before going to the club. It was a different shirt than the one he'd wear pregraming or going to the gym. Pretty sure the f plus read excerpts from it.

I was hoping this was a thread asking advice for what sort of shirt to wear to the club, something I definitely have a wealth of knowledge about and am full of great suggestions.

I think he meant a cabana club, like there was in Miami and Cuba during the 1950's
