Men's shirts

Pre-owned men's shirts, from Oxford shirts with a button-down collar to poplin shirts, short sleeve shirts and work shirts.

Button-down and Oxford shirts

A button-down shirt has collar points that are buttoned to the front of the shirt, so the collar keeps its shape without a tie. It is often made from Oxford cloth, a cotton with a basket weave that feels slightly heavier and softer than a smooth shirting fabric. Ralph Lauren shirts have their own page.

Button-up and short sleeve shirts

A button-up shirt has a free collar and is made from poplin, a smooth and fine cotton, or from denim, flannel or linen. The short sleeve shirt has the same collar and placket with sleeves that end above the elbow, and it is worn open over a T-shirt or closed on its own.

Work shirts and overshirts

Work shirts are made from sturdy cotton twill or a cotton blend, with chest pockets with a flap and reinforced seams. An overshirt is heavier and is worn open over a T-shirt or a jumper as a light layer. Dickies shirts and Carhartt shirts have their own pages, and the guide to workwear explains the fabrics.

Size and measurements

A shirt size on the label can be a letter or a collar size, and the cut differs between brands. Comparing those numbers with a shirt that is already worn works better than the size on the label, and the guide to measuring pit to pit explains the method.

Shirts for everyone are under shirts, polo shirts are under men's polo and rugby shirts, and the women's range is under women's shirts. The full men's range is under men's clothing.
