Nat Nast began designing and manufacturing bowling shirts in 1946. Known as "The King of Bowling Shirts," Nat is also credited with designing the first "action back" shirt by placing two inverted pleats at the back shoulders to allow for greater movement. The Nat Nast Company's goal remains to "create a brand that is not only shaped by the American experience — it celebrates it. Believing that every man has a story to tell, Nat Nast approaches each design with the idea that a man’s clothes should reflect his confidence, his irreverence, his instincts and his style. The centerpiece of the collection is its signature line of limited edition embroidered shirts, each shirt telling an authentic story that pays tribute to the remarkable people, legendary places and notable events that have shaped American History."
