Dubinik · Men's Knitwear
A real denim shirt with weight to it — the layer this whole look is built on.
4.3 out of 5
The JFK Jr. look is mostly five plain garments worn well, and the denim shirt is the one that does the most work: over a tee, under a sweater, or on its own with the 501s already on this page. The weight is the thing — 8.8oz holds a collar and hangs straight, where the thin ones ripple and look cheap on camera. It will fade at the elbows and seat over a few years, which is the point of denim and not a flaw. It shrinks slightly on a first hot wash. Buy it a size up if he is between sizes.
