A show shirt with an asymmetrical placket and a single snap at the neck, cut roomier through the torso than a traditional show shirt.

CALLIDAE designed the Asym as an alternative to the standard show shirt. The placket runs asymmetrically with a single novelty snap closure at the neck and a hidden button placket below it. The current version sits slightly higher and more snugly at the neck than the first release did. Through the torso it is cut roomier, with angled princess seams that produce a corseted line without the restriction. The fabric is crisp cotton shirting with a small amount of stretch.

Specifications:

  • Asymmetrical front placket
  • Single novelty snap closure at the neck
  • Hidden button placket
  • Angled princess seams
  • Crisp cotton shirting with stretch
  • Cut roomier through the torso
  • Colors: Pale Blue, White, Nautical Dobby, Sand and White Stripe, Pale Blue and Tan Plaid
  • Sizes XXS through XL

What sets this one apart:

Crisp cotton shirting with a small amount of stretch, rather than a technical knit, closed by an asymmetrical placket with a single novelty snap at the neck and hidden buttons below it. Angled princess seams give a corseted line through a torso cut roomier than a traditional show shirt.

This shirt carries no UPF rating.

Cotton shirting is the reason. No sun rating is stated for it at all. That is a trade, not an oversight: cotton breathes differently and feels different against the skin, and a rider who has never liked a technical show shirt is the person this was built for.

Why it is here:

Cotton shirting rather than a technical knit, with angled princess seaming through the torso. Both are construction decisions, and neither one shows on a hanger.
