Here we have the amazing ‘Helter Skelter’ shirt, another fab exclusive. It’s a classic 60’s style inspired shirt, with loads of details. We drew our inspiration from one that Paul McCartney wore, we think, in 1966, when he can be seen wearing it a few times. There is a collection of pictures of him in 1967 wearing it whilst opening his cards and presents on his birthday. There is a lot of speculation on where the original came from, many think it could Mr Fish, John Stephens, Granny Takes a Trip, Take 6, Lord John, and many more.
The Paisley is quite something, and this is such a statement shirt. Notice it has ‘epaulettes’ like Paul’s on the shoulders, and also the double yoke pocket.
Styling
You could wear these shirts casually at the weekend, perhaps to a festival. They would look super cool if you play in a band, or equally for a night out, say to a soul, mod or ska do. They also look good under a suit or casual jacket. Great with jeans, or more formal trousers.
We are super pleased with the results, and though this is brilliant item for any Beatles fan, it’s just such a cool shirt in itself
The shirts here are exclusive to Modshoes and are not available anywhere else
Material Composition: 100% Cotton
Sizing Advice
Stick with size, i am an XL and the XL fitted well, with room. This isnt a slim fitting shirt.
PLEASE NOTE : These are not slim fit, they are normal. For instance the slim fit Brutus that came out recently (the darted ones) , these are bigger than these, but not wide.

Big fan of the Paisley pattern shirt, Would love to see the a short sleeve version like Terry Hall`s

This is not only my favourite shirt but it is the best shirt I have ever owned. If there were other colour variations I would buy another.
(My only slight criticism is that the loop on the back is far too big and needs ironing to tame it down.)

FAB SHIRT,GOOD QUILITY AND FIT,LOADS OF PEOPLE ASKED WHERE DID I GET THAT SHIRT FROM.

Modshoes Beatles inspired clothing is top notch but this might be my favourite yet. An eye-catching shirt with a quality you and see and feel. First time wearing it out I had a fair few enquires of where it came from.

Great shirt and fits well. Love the paisley pattern and epaulettes
Samuel Cooper (verified owner) –
Absolutely love it! Got mine yesterday and it fits perfect. I’m a small and the measurements are spot on! The detail is incredible and it’s very comfortable. Pair this with my clear acetate sunglasses and it’s a rock n roll summer outfit that will make you stand out. Keep up the excellent work and restock the John Lennon jumper please :D

The “Helter Skelter” shirt is just great-the paisley pattern , the epaulets and collar all make for a fab shirt. The tails are slightly shorter than typical, which means it also looks great untucked with jeans. Very pleased.
