Retailed for $225.

This is probably the best oxford cloth button down shirt that I have ever owned. Unfortunately, I wear a 35"- 36" sleeve and have a 16" neck, so this is just a hair too small on me. My loss is your gain.

  • Has the now-elusive long collar that creates a great roll when buttoned, worn with or without a tie
  • 100% cotton fabric is a thick and sturdy oxford cloth in the classic pattern of blue on white stripes
  • Buttons are beautiful genuine mother of pearl
  • Side gussets are sewn in to reinforce side seam at the bottom of the shirt
  • Box pleated at the rear to allow for greater movement
  • Thom Browne's signature locker loop sewn under rear collar
  • Split yoke has impressive pattern matching of stripes
  • Single outer chest pocket, with no button or flap
  • Mitered barrel cuffs with gauntlet button
  • Shirt fronts overlap at bottom of button placket or prevent gaping when tucked in

Fit is slim and flattering but certainly not skinny. I have an relatively athletic build with a 38" chest and a 32" waist and find this shirt to fit very well when tucked in, without needing to be taken in at the waist or covered by a tailored jacket.

Tagged a size BB1, which corresponds to a size 15" neck with 34" sleeves. Appears to fit true to tagged size.
