Men's Shirts

The hem tells you how a casual shirt wants to be worn: a long curved tail is cut to tuck, while a straight even hem is cut to hang. Between those two poles the range opens up — overshirts heavy enough to wear as a layer, camp collars that lie flat and open at the neck, western shirts with snap fronts and pointed yokes, and grandad collars that skip the turndown entirely.

Weave carries the character. Oxford cloth is a basketweave, textured and hard-wearing, and softens with every wash. Poplin runs smooth and light; flannel is brushed for warmth and loft; chambray reads like denim at a fraction of the weight; linen creases openly and cools fast. Corduroy, seersucker and jacquard add surface, while patch chest pockets, a box pleat at the yoke and horn or corozo buttons show where the making went.
