ORIGINS
A Henley shirt is a collarless pullover shirt, characterized by a round neckline and a placket about 3 to 5 inches (8 to 13 cm) long and usually have 2–5 buttons.
The name originates from Henley-on-Thames where rowers wore the jerseys as part of their uniform.
Rowers favoured the Henley as it was easier to take on and off due to the 3 buttons on the collar but also because of increased ventilation from the placket and lack of collar.
Style Tip: Wear as a base layer to compliment a classic waistcoat. Keep the top button undone to relax the neck line.
