100% cotton blue school shirt - do they exist?

My son has to wear a blue school shirt ( not a polo shirt but proper button shirt). I cannot find a pure cotton one anywhere. Not m&s, not John Lewis, sainsburys, tescos, none of the eczema clothing sites. There are pure cotton white, but not blue. If I get white and then dye it, it'll look like some tie dye monster. Am desperate as his poly cotton ones are horrid. Anyone found any?

Thank you, but no. They've actually sold out of all blue now, but for ages have only had age 14. My DS is 10. I keep looking at this site to check so I'm going to email to ask them to let me know when they get more in. There's obviously a sourcing problem as they've not had them since the summer hols.

I had the same problem, having a son with very sensitive skin. The only blue 100% cotton shirts I was able to find are from Brooks Brothers here is the US site, but they also have shops in the UK. Unfortunately, they are ££££, but sometimes can be found at their outlet stores (e.g. Bicester).

Thank you Mominatrix, I will consider one of these, as I just hate the ones he has, but £55!
