Tattersall Check

What is Tattersal?

"Against a white ground, offset checks of red and black are laid in even squares -– though there are modern color variations. Tattersall derived from a man who lived in Tatt’s Hall in Lincolnshire originally and then from the colorful checked waistcoats worn by the racing fraternity at Tattersall’s horse market."


This is a great example: Hickey Freeman blue tattersal herringbone shirt
