bowling shirt

Lane-side team wear

A bowling shirt is a short-sleeved, button-front shirt with a loose, boxy fit, typically featuring a camp collar and often decorated with contrasting panels, piping, or embroidered designs.

Originally worn by bowling league teams, the style became casual fashion: He wore a vintage bowling shirt with flames down the sides.

The relaxed cut and retro aesthetic make them popular in rockabilly and lounge-inspired looks.
