John Lewis Regular Fit Stripe Trim Oxford Shirt

What more to say about the Oxford cloth button-down shirt? Once an Ivy League staple, this THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED classic is now a go-to for millions across the world. Let's break down the details.

The collar: soft and relatively unstructured, it lies easily around the neck. Imitation mother-of-pearl buttons at the points of the collar prevent any unruly flapping about. Buttoned-down, the collar provides a neat frame for a smartly knotted tie. Unbuttoned, it can take you from work to the pub without feeling overdressed.

The cuffs: button fastened, though the sleeves are easily rolled up in a more casual context or warmer climes.

The fabric: soft Oxford weave cotton, for a lightly textured but not distractingly patterned finish that will sit with tailoring as well as it does with denim. Thick enough that your chest hair won't be on display for the world through the fabric, but still breathable.

The details: a chest pocket, distinguishing it from more formal, plain-fronted shirts. Ready to hold pens, earbuds or other small but necessary clutter that the day provides.

The fit: a new regular fit, flattering in the waist but not constricting. Generous enough in the back panel and box pleat to give you the movement you need, it's happy whether tucked or flying free.

The trim: a flash of colour with our signature Bengal stripe.
