#481 Blue Big Check Oxford

This style uses cotton cloth from one of the finest mills in Japan. Oxford shirting isn't just about solids. In fact, using an Oxford weave and combining it with patterns is style we've come to appreciate. The Oxford weave adds a great sense of texture and gives the entire shirt more character. In this case, layered on top of the Oxford cloth is a bold, big check pattern. Colors liven everything up: royal blue, navy and crisp white. The entire package has a vintage vibe that's perfect for the warmer months ahead.

Our fit starts with a beautifully tailored body, not too slim, but definitely fitted. High armholes keep the body lines clean. The length hits just right so it looks great tucked or untucked. Scooped out sides give the untucked look a bit of extra style. A traditional button down collar is secured with two side buttons and one back and has a nice soft roll.

We labor over every construction detail. Extensive single needle stitching is used throughout. All our closures are made from true mother of pearl. A finely folded locker loop sits over a box pleat on the back yoke. The front placket is also pleated, made the right way, using a true two piece construction. The feel is more substantial and the effort higher, but it's the right way. An angular chest pocket completes the front. Our cuffs are double button with rounded corners.

Button downs that are made in the USA using our quality of material and construction are typically priced at $175 to $300. The Gustin model, with your support, lets us do much better.
