The verdict
Fit
Western cut, roomy through chest and shoulders. Pistachio is a soft, muted tone so fit will feel approachable; order your usual size.
Quality
Berg & Berg's seaming and fabric hand are consistent contemporary quality. Western construction should handle layering and regular wear.
Is the price fair?
At the discounted price, strong value for a color-statement western from a contemporary maker.
Best for
Color-conscious western wearers seeking an unexpected, soft-green tone in a well-constructed contemporary shirt.
Care
Wash separately the first time to set the pistage dye; hang dry to preserve both the color and western fit.
What owners report about Berg & Berg button-ups
The brand's designer has said openly that it aims for a balance of quality and price rather than the best possible product, and reviews track that positioning. An editorial reviewer found the shirt good enough to keep wearing on quality alone, and readers single out the high, rolling collars with good structure and neat finishing on Italian-made shirting. Forum owners note items run a bit small and advise ordering a size up, and some question paying full retail given the brand's frequent high-percentage sales.
- Strengths
- The shirts' collars draw the most consistent praise — high, structured, and rolling — along with neat finishing and good fabrics for the price.
- Watch out for
- Owners report the cut runs a bit small, frequent deep sales make full retail hard to judge, and return shipping to Sweden is expensive enough that some buyers hesitate to order.
- Sizing
- Forum owners report items run a bit small and slim, with repeated advice to order a size up.
