Oxford shirts

Compared to cotton, Oxford fabric is thicker, stronger and symmetrically woven. This gives Oxford shirts a noticeably assuring structure, quality, and weight. Beyond the thread, perhaps the most iconic feature of the oxford shirt is its button-down collar, which proves especially effective in keeping the neck area looking crisp, whether a tie is worn or not. The Oxford shirt is named after the distinctive and durable Oxford fabric, which has two particular features:

- The fabric has white threads in one direction and colored threads in the other.
- The fabric is a bit thicker than a traditional shirt fabric and has a clear and symmetrical texture. The weaving type is called basketweave.

The Oxford shirt pairs well with chinos, sports jackets, denim, shorts, the list goes on. For this reason, the Oxford shirt is a superb choice for all occasions, whether formal or relaxed.

A classic Oxford shirt has a distinctive casual style with a button-down collar. As a casual everyday shirt, it can be worn to a wide range of places or events. Depending on what it is paired with, an Oxford shirt can work perfectly at the office or music festival. An Oxford shirt in a slightly thinner fabric such as Pinpoint Oxford is especially recommended as a versatile business shirt.
