Wooly Goodness
About a month ago, I scored a vintage Pendleton shirt for 5bucks at the Melrose and Fairfax Flea Market. I love this shirt. Its a perfect fall/winter shirt and it fits me perfectly. The plaid is what Pendleton calls a Shadow Plaid. The wool is a little course, but that just makes it more "manly". The cool thing about the wool is that its machine washable.
Pendleton actually still makes the exact same shirt in the same array of Shadow Plaids. They also make a pretty sweet looking shirt/jacket. Only problem is that they retail for 80-90 dollars. Do a little research on E-bay and you can score a used version for a bargain, or keep your eye out at various vintage stores, they're a staple.
Plaid flannels are back in style, but Pendleton's never left. This particular cut of Pendleton shirts I think is timeless and will last a life time plus.

$80-90!!?? I used to find these all the time at Value Village and just gave one away to the thrift store. Oh, I'm feeling the pangs. Why is it so hard to get rid of schtuff?
