BUILT FOR THE GOOD DAYS: THE PIERSIDE CORD SHIRT & EVERGREEN FLANNEL

Posted by IPD International on

At IPD, we’re all about gear that works hard, wears easy, and keeps up with the pace of your life—whether that’s chasing swell at sunrise or kicking it with friends as the sun dips below the horizon. The Pierside Cord Shirt and Evergreen Flannel are two pieces that capture what we’re about: timeless style, rugged quality, and that effortless feel you want from your go-to gear.

The Pierside Cord: A Classic, Rewired

Corduroy’s been around forever—but we gave it a fresh spin with the Pierside Cord Shirt. Think soft, fine-wale corduroy that feels broken-in from day one. It’s got a smooth texture, a laid-back fit, and a construction that holds its own through surf checks, road trips, and wherever else you take it.

We kept the details dialed: dual chest pockets with button closures, zig-zag stitch at the interior collar, matte-finish buttons that don’t scream for attention—but still look dialed in. It’s pre-washed too, so what you see is what you get. No shrink surprises, just a shirt that fits like it should and gets better with time.

From beach mornings to bonfires and beyond, the Pierside Cord is your anytime, all-season layer. Wear it buttoned up or tossed over a tee—this one just works.

Evergreen Flannel: Coastal Comfort, Dialed

There’s a reason the Evergreen Flannel is a year-round favorite. It’s that buttery-soft flannel feel, the one that makes you reach for it first thing in the morning. Made from 100% cotton and brushed to perfection, the Evergreen delivers warmth without weight and pairs just as well with jeans as it does with trunks and bare feet.

We went with a yarn-dyed plaid—so the color stays rich no matter how many spins it takes in the wash. The fit? Not too slim, not too baggy—just that easy, worn-in shape that fits right over a tee or hoodie. Chest pockets? Yep, they’re there. Buttons? Matte finish, subtle and solid. We pre-washed it too, so it’s ready to roll straight off the rack and won’t pull any shrinkage moves.

How We Rock ’Em

These shirts aren’t meant for hangers—they’re meant to be lived in. Here’s how we’ve been styling ours:

  • Post-Surf Coffee Runs: Throw the Pierside Cord over a damp tee, pair it with your favorite trunks or walkshorts, and you’ve got a fit that’s cozy enough to defrost after a cold session, but still sharp enough for wherever the day takes you.

  • Bonfire Nights: The Evergreen Flannel + jeans + cold drink in hand = good to go. It’s warm enough for chill nights, but never bulky. Button it up or leave it open, either way, you’re solid.

  • City Days: Button the Pierside Cord all the way up, cuff the sleeves, and throw on some chinos or clean denim. Add a beanie or a clean trucker and you’ve got a look that brings the coast to the concrete.

  • Layer Up: Cold morning missions call for the Evergreen over a hoodie. Toss it on with cargos or joggers and you’ve got that mountain-meets-ocean energy, ready for the elements.

A Few Tips to Keep ’Em Fresh

We build these shirts to last—but a little care goes a long way.

  • Wash cold with like colors. Keeps the fabric fresh and the colors true.

  • Tumble dry low or hang to dry if you’re feeling patient.

  • If you iron, go low heat—but honestly, a few creases just add character.

Wrap-Up

We don’t chase trends—we make gear that feels right, fits well, and stands up to the life you live. The Pierside Cord Shirt and Evergreen Flannel are two pieces we’re proud of. Designed for movement, comfort, and those in-between moments that make up the best days.

So whether you’re stepping into saltwater or just stepping out the door, throw one on and get after it. These shirts are built for the good days—and all the ones in between.

See you out there.
