The Shirt - Formal is a long sleeved cotton dress shirt, the kind worn with a suit and tie. It covers the whole torso and both arms down to the wrists. It is a light layer meant for looks more than for weather.

It adds a little warmth and keeps a small amount of wind off the body. Its real worth in a long game is the cloth it holds. A spare formal shirt rips into Rags, and its sleeves can be cut short to make a Short Sleeve Shirt.

The same page covers the white Shirt - Police, which shares every figure. The formal shirt also comes in a dyeable version. It turns up on clothing racks, in closets and in bedroom wardrobes all over town. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.

Wearing


The shirt takes the Shirt slot. It covers the upper and lower torso, the back, the upper arms and the forearms. It gives light warmth and light wind cover. That suits a warm or mild day, but not a cold night.

Its warmth matches the Shirt - Prison Guard and the Military Shirt - Green Camo. The Shirt - Prison Guard blocks a little more wind. The Shirt - Denim and the Shirt - Lumberjack are far warmer for the same slot.

Against zombies the shirt relies on whatever is worn over it. A jacket or a reinforced layer on top is the better guard against bites and scratches.

Wearing it costs nothing in speed, comfort, sight or hearing. A Dress or a Long Dress cannot be worn together with it.

Tailoring


The shirt is cotton, so holes in it are mended with cotton patches. Ripping it with Rip Clothing gives Rags. Shorten Sleeves uses scissors to turn it into a Short Sleeve Shirt and gives a Rag as well. Dye Clothes changes the colour of the dyeable version. The Research Craft option on the shirt teaches Sew Shirt and Sew Sleeveless Shirt.
