Flannel Shirts

Flannel is one of the fabrics that work best in the fall. I like patterns for this, in particular larger stripes and checks. For something fairly traditional, go for something with a lot of reds and oranges: they’re classing hunting shirts that a lot of people rocked long before modern camouflages were popular.

There’s an old deer hunter’s rumor that deer can’t see red, and the pattern breaks up the human outline, but whether or not that’s true, a flannel is one of my favorite fall shirts, especially if the fabric is on the lighter end weight-wise so that layering is a little easier.
