Looks like my grandfather's bowling shirt with a tag from a pair of Zanella pants.

A contrarian view... Sean Connery as James Bond in Thunderball, worn with matching trousers.

That is a cool shirt and will look great for casual wear. What a nice change from the bold island shirts that are out there.

Well, it looks nothing like a bowling shirt. It's a good royal blue color. And, yes, it will look nice for casual wear. Zanella does NOT make cheap tacky stuff. Here's the description: http://mistershop.com/zashro.html

If you like that shirt (style and color), you might keep your eye out for a German shirtmaker, "Signum."

I was kind of kidding when I wrote what I wrote. I'm just not at all used to seeing that Zanella tag on shirts.

I thought the consensus on this forum was to boo the Homer Simpson look of short-sleeved button-downs (western shirts are an exception).

I'd say this is more of a sports shirt, as opposed to a dress shirt, which does look bad in short sleeves. I have a bunch of shirts like this one, mainly in linen and thinner cotton, for the warm summer months. I love that casual, Cuban look, as long as Castro isn't breathing down my neck.
