Pasadena, Texas was named for Pasadena, California in 1893. It was lush, green and beautiful. Then came the oil boom, the Ship Channel, a skyline of steel refinery towers, and Mickey Gilley's.
This shirt is at home in either town. Roll the sleeves up for a classic 50's blue collar vibe, or roll them down to add more laid-back refinement, while maintaining a distinct voice.
The Pasadena is made from 100% combed, mercerized Pima cotton. Woven into a blue micro-check that reads solid from across the room and sharpens up close. At 3.2 oz., it's light enough for a Gulf Coast August, yarn-dyed for color that holds, and mercerized for strength and a clean, eggshell-like low luster. It's pre-shrunk, and the more you wash it, the softer it gets. Marbled pearl snaps finish it.

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.
Every shirt is cut by hand. Expect up to a quarter 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.
