Billy Butcher’s shirt from the latest episode of The Boys is pretty fantastic and we know where it’s from. Billy Butcher, portrayed by Karl Urban, is one of the main characters on the television series The Boys. His character is known for his tropical styled button-down shirts.

This month the show, which is an Amazon Original Series, returned for its second season. The Boys is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods, abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It’s the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about “The Seven”, and their formidable Vought backing.

Why people love Billy Butcher’s Shirt

There are a lot of reasons for wanting to get your hands on the clothing worn on television shows. For some, it’s about cosplay. Cosplay is the act of dressing up as your favorite character from a television series. This is extremely popular on social media and at comic book conventions. It can also be seen as a collector’s item among fans. For others, it may be as simple as appreciation for fashion.

A quick Google search of “Billy Butcher’s Shirt” will lead you to online forums where many ask, “Where can I get his shirt?”. Well, we are here to make it easier for fans to find what they need.

The Shirt

Men Hokusai Blue Open Collar Short Sleeve Shirt by Uniqlo

In  Season 2 Episode 4 “Nothing Like It In The World”, Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) is wearing a dark blue button-down shirt under his signature brown coat. The shirt is made by Uniqlo Co., Ltd,  a Japanese casual wear designer, manufacturer, and retailer. The shirt is called the “Men Hokusai Blue Open Collar Short Sleeve Shirt“.

Filming for the Boys Season 2 took place in 2019. Many times the time between filming and the show airing can be anywhere from 12-18 months in between. In other words, it’s rare to be able to find items actors wear available in-store by the time we see them on television. However, as of today, the shirt is available in limited sizes through the Uniqlo website.
