Blanco

Live oaks 300 years old. Stone houses Germans built in the 1840s. And nine-pin bowling! Somewhere along the Blanco River, there's a paneled room with a Winchester 30-30 over the mantel and a whitetail watching you eat. The Blanco shirt is for the Hill Country days the soul might mistake for heaven.

The color of ground cream, with a fine check of gold, red and navy. A white shirt that isn't white.

Pure cotton spun into a medium-light flannel, off a Japanese mill that's been at it 150 years. Soft and pliable out of the box, pre-shrunk, 100% cotton; it takes your shape the first day and keeps it. Iridescent mother-of-pearl snaps. Like the good one your granddad never threw out.
