AskSG: Palmetto & Cresent Shirts

Over the course of the blog, I've received a variety of questions from "Is that turducken really good?" to "What kind of boots should I get for all this snow in NY?" to "I'm coming to DC/going to New Orleans and would love some recommendations."

They are usually related to a post, so I'll respond directly if your address is in the comment field or answer back with another comment, but figured some would be worth sharing:

"So, there's a mens store or a shirt maker in Charleston that makes a button down oxford with the palmetto as its logo. Any ideas on where I can find these shirts? My friends from CoC [College of Charleston] and the Citadel rep them and I cannot find one anywhere!"

The shirts you are interested in come from M. Dumas & Sons at the corner of King & Society in Charleston. The venerable old men's store has a Palmetto Collection of kit from bow ties and polos to shorts and embroidered pants. You can find the entire collection HERE.

  1. Great new feature. Wish I had thought of something this simple/easy for Sart. Inc. Nice chatting with you the other day, even though it gave me crazy happy hour envy.

  2. Thanks LAS. No reason you can't do it yourself as well.

  3. I like the new feature, too...as well as the content. M. Dumas is one of the best stores in Charleston. I think they'll have to fill the void left by Ludens. Have a great Thanksgiving, guys.

  5. Sorry to ask a question since you just answered one, but this question has been killing me! I go to school at UNC Chapel Hill and several of the guys I know there are sporting a distinctive type of short. It has not brand distinction on the outside, and the distinctive feature is on the back pocket. Over the traditional back pocket is a piece of cloth that mirrors the style of the front pockets.

  6. ...sounds, perhaps, like a Patagonia "stand up" short.....still being made and sold on patagonia.com.

  7. Anon - Looks like AEV has answered your question and I'd agree that seems like what you are referencing.

    These pop up on eBay every so often and can be found on Patagonia year round.
