The Viyella Tattersall Checked Shirt
- an essential for every gentlemens wardrobe!

The Tattersall check pattern shirt from Viyella has become a classic over the years and is considered by many as an essential 'must have' for every gentlemen's wardrobe.

Viyella Tattersall Checked Shirts

The pattern originated from the Tattersall Horse Market in London where the horses being auctioned would wear rugs featuring this type of check pattern.

Over the years, the pattern has grown in popularity and in particular became a firm favourite of the country gentlemen. However, the Tattersall Check Pattern Shirt certainly isn't restricted to just the country gentlemen and in more recent years has become popular with a much wider audience.

Traditional Tattersall Check patterns...

The traditional Tattersall check pattern typically features darker coloured lines, generally of 3 or 4 different contrasting colours that work well together and help to form the check pattern which is set on a lighter coloured fabric. The lines that form the Tattersall Check pattern are usually spaced evenly both vertically and horizontally to form squares on the check pattern, although some patterns are spaced wider horizontally producing more of a rectangular shaped check.

There are of course a multitude of variations of this style, some of which can be seen in the Viyella Tattersall Shirt pictures on this page, including check patterns that consist of more subtle and finer lines in a lighter range of colours, as well as darker and heavier check patterns that make more of a statement with their bolder thicker lines and more striking colours for those days where you just have to make an impact!
