>Shirts final:

Work shirts for blue-collar men were made from denim or chambray, featuring an indigo, light blue, green, or pink hue depending on the workplace. Dickies and other workwear brands would change this up with their polyester-blended shirts, which made for easier laundering and better durability over time. Strangely enough, Dickies still sells their 40s style spear-collar work shirts, alongside their poly work shirts (same cut too!) at common store locations in the US. Some things never change

Materials were fairly straightforward depending on the type of shirt
>Dress- Broadcloth, oxford woven cotton, ecru, sometimes rayon
>casual- dacron, rayon, cotton, silk
>work- polyester, denim, chambray
>polo- cotton, sometimes poly blends
>T-shirts and wifebeaters- cotton
