Parts of Shirt

Many terms are used to describe and differentiate types of shirts (and upper-body garments in general) and their construction.

Many of these distinctions apply to other upper-body garments, such as coats and sweaters.

    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It’s wonderful how I jog
    on four-honed-down ivory toes
    my massive buttocks slipping
    like oiled parts with each light step.
    Philip Levine (b. 1928)

    For there can be no whiter whiteness than this one:
    An insurance man’s shirt on its morning run.
