Story & heritage
Woolrich’s history page identifies Buffalo Check as one of the brand’s iconic elements, and The Birth of an Icon says the Wool Buffalo Check Shirt was introduced in 1850. This official Icons-page overshirt brings that check language into a modern shirt-jacket shape.
The product page describes an archival pattern and the warmth of a coat with the casual look of a shirt, which is exactly why the Alaskan check belongs in the icon lineup.
Materials & craft
This overshirt provides you with the warmth of a coat and the casual look of a shirt. It is made of a blend of recycled wool and cotton, featuring an archival plaid pattern. Finished with classic details such as a pointed collar and snap-button pockets.

How to choose & style
Treat it like outerwear, not just a shirt: wear it over a thermal tee, denim shirt or fine-gauge sweater. The red check is strongest when the rest of the outfit stays muted.
