The Blue Bayou is a fine-wale micro corduroy Western shirt in rich navy blue — one of those rare garments that feels as good as it looks. Made from 100% premium cotton corduroy custom-sourced from one of the finest textile mills in the world, it's supple, breathable, and built to last.
Cut in a slim fit for a tailored silhouette, the Blue Bayou works equally well tucked into dress trousers for a night out or worn open over a tee on the weekend. The off-white horn-color snaps pair exquisitely with the deep navy corduroy — a detail that separates this shirt from anything you'll find at a department store.
Every Blue Bayou is hand-sewn in the USA. Pre-washed and pre-shrunk so it fits true from the first wear.

Buy it. Wear it. We'll be damned if it doesn't become the shirt you reach for most.

How we measure
Chest — Button the shirt and lay it flat. Measure across about an inch below the underarm seam, then double that figure for the full chest.
Shoulder — Measure straight across the back, from one shoulder seam to the other.
Sleeve — Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
Length — Measure from the high point of the shoulder, beside the collar, straight down to the hem.
On the fit
Cut with a tapered body for a clean line through the torso without pulling across the back. True to size.
Corduroy is a heavier, thicker cloth than our poplin and chambray, so this shirt measures about a half inch fuller through the chest. It wears true to our standard fit.
Every shirt is cut by hand, and this was an early run — expect up to a half inch of variation piece to piece.
Between sizes?
Take the larger for more room through the chest or to layer underneath. Take the smaller for a closer, more tailored line.
The surest method: measure a shirt you already own and like, using the method above, and compare it to the chart.

Our Slim Fit
Brazos Fine Shirts come in a modern slim fit that offers a tailored look through the chest and waist while keeping comfort and mobility. Our sizing (S, M, L, XL, 2XL) follows "slim fit" measurements of brands like Levi's and J.Crew. If you prefer extra room, size up from your regular "standard fit."
Garment Measurements
We publish garment measurements — the shirt itself, laid flat, in inches. Every product page carries that shirt's own measured chart under Size Chart; the numbers below are our standard long-sleeve cut. Heavier cloths like flannel and corduroy run about a half inch fuller through the chest.
