McNair Shirts

One simple aim, to make the best Mountain Shirts in the World.

05/09/2026

One of the lovely things about making clothes for people all over the world is watching the seasons change through our orders.

Right now, we’re sending midweight shirts and jackets north, while orders from Australia and New Zealand are calling for the heavyweight stuff. The same McNair wardrobe, just at opposite ends of the globe.

We love seeing a shirt made in Slaithwaite, Yorkshire, making its way to Colorado, Colombia, Morzine, Australia and New Zealand.

We ship worldwide. With the seasons.

We’re heading to Chatsworth Fair, set in the spectacular 1,000-acre parkland surrounding Chatsworth House in the heart of the Peak District. It’s three days of Grand Ring entertainment, cookery masterclasses, food, shopping and all manner of things to have a go at.

We’ll be there with the full McNair collection of shirts, jackets and gilets. Come and feel the fabrics, try things on, see what’s new and, most importantly, get properly fitted for your next McNair. We’ll have the new Chadwick Jacket, Mill Gilet and Lightweight Work Jacket as well as other new styles not yet available online.

We love to see you wearing your McNair Shirts and catching up on all your adventures. If you’ve been meaning to come and see what we make, this is a very good excuse.

Come and find us at our new spot near the fairground, Stand E7.

4th - 6th September, Chatsworth House.

A very lovely note from Ben, whose new made-to-measure McNair corduroy Plains Shirt was delivered this August.

“I just wanted to drop you a quick message to say my shirt has arrived and is absolutely incredible. The fit, fabric and quality of construction are all out of this world. My favourite wardrobe piece already and that's before the awesome PlasmaDry™ treatment had been put to good use in real-world conditions.”

We’ll take that.

The Plains is our Men’s PlasmaDry™ heavyweight corduroy shirt. Classic McNair tailoring, cut from what we believe is the finest corduroy in the world: weighty, soft, tough and rich in colour. Designed for whatever the real world throws at it.

Thank you, Ben. We’ve got your details for the next one.

There are two kinds of people: those who understand gilets, and those who haven’t needed both a warm torso and free arms at the same time.

The gilet is a strange and brilliant thing. Not quite a jacket, more useful than a waistcoat. Good over a shirt, under a jacket, in the workshop, on the hill, at the pub, or during that awkward bit of weather between “quite nice” and “quite rubbish”.

We make gilets in merino and moleskin, depending on whether the day calls for woolly warmth or workwear toughness. All have at least 3 external pockets as well as 2 large internal lower pockets.

McNair gilets are made for warmth, movement and practicality, without the bulk or sleeve-based complications.

Canvas is a tightly woven cotton cloth, prized for its strength, structure and ability to take years of wear without complaint.

Our PlasmaDry™ canvas family now includes the Men’s Lightweight Canvas Work Jacket, the heavier weight Canvas Work Jacket, the Canvas Work Shirt and the Savannah Jacket.

The heavyweight Work Jacket is robust, tactile and quietly handsome, with oversized patch pockets and a shorter, boxier fit that leaves room to move, and room to layer.

The Lightweight Work Jacket is cut from half-Panama cotton canvas: breathable, textured and tough enough for years of wear, without the heft of the heavyweight version. The Savannah Jacket uses the same cloth and is our take on a classic safari jacket.

All finished with PlasmaDry™ for remarkable water and stain repellency.

Canvas, but with manners.

We call it the Coast Jacket, but really it’s our summer jacket, our travel jacket.

The Women’s PlasmaDry™ Half Panama Coast Jacket is made for warmer days and versatile packing.

There’s a nod to the classic safari jacket, with two oversized lower pockets for everything you need, plus things you picked up along the way: receipts, sunglasses, a pebble with a hole in it.

The fit is relaxed so there's room for a jumper when the chill turns up without an invite.

It is made from midweight half Panama cotton, a fabric that is breathable, soft, naturally resistant to creasing and water-resistant.

Available in Limestone, Marine Blue, Mole and Bay Leaf.

Now launched: the Lightweight Work Jacket.

Cut from midweight half Panama cotton, it is breathable, textured and made for warmer days without looking too pleased with itself.

Half Panama is a basket-weave cloth with enough structure to resist creasing, without feeling stiff. PlasmaDry™ adds the benefit of being remarkably water- and stain-repellent.

The fit is relaxed, easy to move in and ready for any job that requires pockets and a bit of decorum.

There are four pockets in total: three external and a good-sized lower internal pocket for stashing miscellaneous bits and pieces. Ideal for travelling, day-to-day wear and the quiet satisfaction of having somewhere to put things.

Lightweight canvas. Solidly McNair.

Introducing our lightest weight work jacket ever.

The new canvas Work Jacket is built for warmer days, cooler evenings and people who still expect their clothes to last longer than the summer.

In fact, it will last many summers. And springs. And autumns.

Lightweight, but not lightweight.

Coming this week.
