The Oxford Shirt - A Wardrobe Essential
Oxford shirts are England s gift to fashion.
The oxford shirt is a timeless, versatile and essential
part of any fashion conscious man s or woman s wardrobe.
Interestingly, oxford shirts are
viewed and defined in different ways.
One view and definition of the classic oxford shirt is its design as a long sleeved shirt with cuffs
and a collar.
A more current version of the construction would add a collar that is button down in
the front and a split yoke on the back, just below the collar and a pocket on the left breast of the
shirt.
That description is only part of what makes an oxford shirt an oxford shirt.
The more accurate definition focuses on the material an oxford shirt is made from.
It is a
heavier, loosely spun weave of two fine yarns running the length of the shirt and a heavier yarn
running across the shirt that produces a subtle pattern in the cloth.
The shirts are usually made
from cotton or a cotton blend.
