Who among us hasn’t cavorted during our single days and savored – at times, even overindulged in – the wine of youth? Bonobos certainly won’t be casting any first stones, especially now that we’ve got our corporate headquarters in a big glass house. But we will pay homage to all those who live life to the very . . . well, ok, perhaps the cup doth brimmeth over a tad, but that’s what dark tablecloths are for. At any rate, after marshaling the entries and tallying the votes, the winners of our naming contest for the two new Bonobos tartan plaid sport shirts are: Checkered Past, submitted by the free-wheelin’ Jim for the small-scale plaid, and Bachelor Plaid, submitted by our favorite libertine David K for the large-scale plaid. Leo’s Clash of the Tartans didn’t quite make the cut, but it was a great entry, and we’ll be sending him something too. So gentlemen, enjoy! Live it up a little, and please, by all means, do so responsibly in plaid.

The Checkered Past and Bachelor Plaid are 100% cotton tartan plaid poplin sport shirts. The Checkered Past small-scale plaid features brown buttons, while the large-scale Bachelor Plaid features white buttons.

Other features include:

• Button chest pocket on left side – perfect for pens and pennywhistles

• Contrast light blue end-on-end interior in collars and under cuffs – a fun detail people will notice

• Soft, washed poplin fabric and the classic Bonobos sport shirt fit – you’re gonna’ look great in these

Customer Reviews

One of my new favorites by Jim

I received the Checkered Past in red, white and blue about two weeks ago and have worn it several times since. First time was a bar crawl where it held its ground nicely into a late-night karaoke session. Second and third time were normal days at the office.

The fabric is super soft and great for a shoulder season like fall. I've been wearing it mostly with the sleeves rolled up with the nice weather we've been having. Probably not the best shirt when winter rolls around, but it seems like it'll pair well under a light sweater as things cool down. Also digging the contrast fabric under the cuffs -- nice touch.

I'm 6'1" 165lbs and the medium fits great.
