Why this French cuff shirt stands out
-
Giza cotton twill. Long-staple Egyptian cotton woven on the diagonal. Twill feels soft, drapes well and is more opaque than poplin, so a white shirt never looks see-through under a jacket.
-
Wide spread collar. Made for a Windsor or half-Windsor knot and a jacket lapel. It frames the face and sits flat under a suit.
-
Double French cuffs. The cuff folds back and closes with cufflinks: the most formal cuff a shirt can have.
-
French placket. A clean front with no stitched strip, for a smoother, dressier line.
-
Made for your size. 100% cotton, cut to your collar and sleeve or to your own measurements, not a stretch blend made to fit everyone.
How to wear a white French cuff shirt
For business, wear it with a navy or charcoal suit, a silk tie and simple silver or gold cufflinks. For weddings and formal evenings, pair it with a black or midnight suit, a black or silver tie and polished black oxfords. Fold the cuff back so both edges meet, pass the cufflink through all four holes and turn it to lock.

Frequently asked questions
What is a French cuff shirt?
A French cuff, or double cuff, is a long cuff that folds back on itself and is fastened with cufflinks instead of buttons. It is the most formal shirt cuff.
When should you wear a French cuff shirt?
Wear French cuffs with a suit and tie for business meetings, weddings, galas, black-tie optional events and formal dinners. They look out of place without a jacket.
Are cufflinks included?
No. Cufflinks are not included, so you can wear your own pair.
What tie knot works with a wide spread collar?
A wide spread collar suits a fuller knot such as a Windsor or half-Windsor, which fills the space between the collar points.
Is twill or poplin better for a white dress shirt?
Twill is softer, drapes better and is less see-through, which makes it ideal for a white shirt. Poplin is crisper and cooler. Both are formal enough for business.
How long does delivery take?

How do I wash a Giza cotton twill shirt?
