Most men treat the open collar shirt as an afterthought. Something grabbed from a drawer when the occasion is too relaxed for a tie and not relaxed enough for a t-shirt. That thinking is exactly where style goes quiet in a wardrobe. The shirts in this collection are specifically the ones that reward a second look. The ones where the fabric has real weight and character, where the collar sits well whether you’ve done the top two buttons up or left them open, where the print or the weave or the texture is doing something considered rather than just filling space. We’ve been looking at shirts that work tucked into tailored trousers on a warm evening and untucked over chinos on a weekend without losing anything in translation. Construction matters more here than most men realise. Placket stitching, sleeve length, how the yoke sits across the shoulders. These are shirts built to be noticed when you’re not trying to be noticed.
