One-Button Barrel

Classic and safe, the one-button barrel is the most popular option. It’s perfectly suited for formal occasions, but can be worn with most anything. Can’t decide? Go with this one.

Specs: Height: 2 3/8", Buttons: 1, Interlining construction matched to collar

Two-Button Mitered

Technically, a two-button style is less formal, but this is a fashion-forward look that works with most fabrics and most situations. This is a great choice if you like to roll your sleeves, because the cuff is slightly wider than our other options.

Specs: Height: 2 7/8", Buttons: 2, Interlining construction matched to collar

French

The French cuff, our most formal cuff choice, is a foldover style that requires cufflinks. A must for black-tie occasions, they're a bit too formal for most modern workplaces -- unless you're a senior-level exec in a formal office. First years may want to wait for a few promotions before breaking them out.

Specs: 2 5/8", Buttons: None, Interlining construction matched to collar, Cufflinks NOT included.

Short Sleeves / Plain Hem

The short sleeve plain hem is a simple plain hem without a cuff. Length and width settings for the short sleeve can be configured in My Blueprints

Standard Placket

The standard placket is a classic, conservative look. It provides more sturdiness and structure to the shirt and will also help keep a collar worn open from pulling out towards the shoulders. Our placket is 1 1/2" wide with 1/4" topstitching to the left and right of the shirt buttons.

Seamless (French Front)

A French front is a contemporary, continental look and many consider it a more formal option. But, don't let that sway you, a French front can be worn casually just as well. If offers a bit less structure than a standard placket, so consider this if you'd like to keep things clean and light.

Fly Front (Covered Placket)

The fly front hides the buttons on the shirt by incorporating a fold of fabric over the buttons. It’s conventionally a formal front style—it makes for an excellent minimalist tuxedo shirt, for example. But, the adventurous will wear it in more casual settings too.

No Pocket

While a pocket is decidedly somewhat casual, going without a pocket works on both formal shirts and more casual shirts. Our rule of thumb: if you don't typically use a pocket on your shirts, leave it off.

Rounded Pocket

Our standard pocket is a rounded bottom pocket on the left breast. A pocket is conservative, classic and a more casual option.

Single Flap Pocket

Our standard rounded pocket, but with a button-fastened angle flap closure. This style was originally popularized by J.Press, so it's a preppy staple that works well with a classic oxford.

Dual Utility Pockets

Our dual utility pockets feature a rounded bottom with a button-fastened opening, inspired by classic workwear. Makes a great choice for casual fabrics, especially on a chambray to make a classic utility shirt.

Dual Flap Pockets

Similar to our dual utility pockets, but with an additional flap closure on each pocket. Dual flap pockets give the shirt a true workwear feel and offer functional benefits to keep pocket contents secure.

Rounded

A rounded hem is the classic, usual choice on a button-up shirt. If you've never given this a second thought, choose this. Our saddle hem features a shallow curve, just two inches shorter at the sides relative to the front and back, for a look that both tucks well but also looks great untucked.

Straight with Side Vents

A straight hem with side vents is considerably more casual, and generally chosen exclusively for untucked wear. It's a style you might expect to see on a camp collar shirt or a polo.

Standard Buttons

Our standard buttons are made from a highly durable resin material in an off-white/pale yellow color that works with pretty much anything. Slightly thicker than the average button, they feel substantial without being difficult to button, and are nearly impossible to break.

Mother of Pearl Buttons

The natural iridescence of real mother-of-pearl is unmistakable, and looks especially good paired with a crisp white shirt. These are made in a medium thickness for enhanced durability, but be wary of careless dry cleaners — these can chip if not treated with some delicacy.

Brown Horn Buttons

Our brown, faux-horn buttons are an excellent choice for casual shirts, especially something in earth tones where a white button might seem too plain.

Navy Horn Buttons

Our navy, faux horn buttons look great with a range of colors when you are looking for a darker, more-refined button but want to shy away from black.

Black Buttons

These plastic black buttons look great with darker fabrics, especially those featuring monochrome hues such as charcoal and gray. That said, many will choose to add them to a lighter color fabric for a pop of contrast.

Coconut Fisheye

These real coconut buttons feature a fisheye style that work great with very casual fabrics. Consider them with your next floral, camp collar shirt for your next vacation.

Pearl Snaps

Real pearl snaps add a workwear and western feel to a shirt. Try adding them to your next chambray workshirt, or a hardy flannel.

Overview

The beauty of the houndstooth lies in the tiny scale of the pattern—a distinct houndstooth print in dark blue and white, but one that comes off as a soft solid from a distance, adding a little more depth to the basic blue shirt. In crisp, midweight pinpoint, the Dark Blue Houndstooth pairs well with most any suit, or is just as easily dressed down without a jacket.

Perfectly weighted shirt! Classic fabric goes with everything. I will buy again when my shirt wears out.

Carey B. (Hampton, NH)

Stunning. A nice edition to any wardrobe where texture in the fabric and print is desired. The shirt has more refined look, but it’s a comfortable and yet breathable.

Cameron H. (Amissville, VA)

Good classic color with a pattern. Fabric feels nice.

Joe M. (Elmwood Park, NJ)

probably my preferred fabric type, weight. Most professional looking of what I've got from you. Save the 5$, happy to review your stuff, I love all the shirts I get from you guys.

Ty B. (Highlands Ranch, CO)

Excellent fabric for an office shirt. The pattern is subtle and can only be seen up close. The weight is perfect for year round wear. I've had mine for 3.5 years now and I like it more every time I wear it.

Peter H. (Saint Charles, IL)
