The piece
Buttoned, with nothing to prove.
A pointed collar, a hidden placket, one clean line.
A shirt earns its authority by what it leaves out. No contrast stitching, no visible buttons, nothing announcing itself: a pointed collar, a placket that hides its fastening, and a sleeve that ends exactly at the wrist.
The placket
The buttons sit behind the front, so the line runs unbroken from collar to hem.
The collar
Pointed and crisp, sitting flat under a blazer.
The cuffs
Narrow and buttoned, finishing at the wrist bone.

Garment measurements in centimetres. Nothing stretches here, so take the size whose bust clears your own with room to move.
Good to know
Navy Blue
It arrives darker than it photographs, as one buyer noted.
The fabric
Smooth with a soft sheen rather than the matte face of a cotton shirt.

Estimated delivery is 10 to 25 working days after your order has been processed and dispatched. Tracking information usually becomes available within 5 to 10 working days of the order being confirmed, and we email the number the moment it does.
Can I return it if it is not right?
Yes. You have 14 days from receiving the goods to tell us you want to cancel and return an eligible purchase. Send the piece back in the condition you received it, with its packaging and labels where possible, and we refund to the original payment method. Some items are excluded where the law allows it.

Write to us with your order number and a photograph of the problem. We arrange a replacement, a repair or a refund, whichever fits the case, at no cost to you. Your statutory rights are not affected.
How do I choose my size?
The size guide above this section lists body measurements, not garment measurements. Between two sizes, take the larger one for tailoring and the smaller one for knitwear — or email us the size you take in a brand you already own and we will tell you which one to order.
