We’re pleased to welcome Criquet to Thistle & Oak this Friday and Saturday — a brand that perfectly captures the spirit of relaxed refinement.
HARTFORD'S STORY
Austin, Texas, Criquet was built around a simple idea: bring back the classic shirts our fathers wore in the 1970s — but make them better. The result is a collection rooted in vintage sport style, updated with modern tailoring, premium fabrics, and everyday versatility.
Criquet is best known for its iconic Players Shirt — a tailored polo that holds its shape, with a structured collar that stays crisp whether layered under a jacket or worn on its own. It’s the rare piece that looks polished without trying too hard. Comfortable, breathable, and thoughtfully constructed, it bridges the gap between casual and elevated.
WHAT SETS CRIQUET APART
Premium fabrics that feel substantial yet soft
Collars that don’t wilt
Clean, timeless silhouettes
Subtle retro influence
Built to last, not trend-driven
There’s a quiet confidence to the brand — effortless, masculine, and versatile enough for the golf course, the office, or a weekend gathering.
We love Criquet because it embodies what Thistle & Oak stands for: quality, character, and clothing that works hard without looking like it does.
Join us Friday and Saturday to explore the collection, see items and try sizes we don't usually carry and discover why Criquet has become a cult favorite among men who appreciate classic style done right.
