Make sure you can button the neck comfortably, but that the chest buttons don't pull apart when you move your arms around. Let the seams of the shoulders hit right at or slightly above the point of your shoulder. The simple answer on fit for short-sleeved shirts is to wear them slim but not tight. Thankfully these are the same keys to pulling off anything else: fit, color, print, details, and silhouette.Įven though we subscribe to the notion that most any fit can be pulled off if done properly, that's next-level fashion killer stuff that most dudes aren't ready to hear. Still, there are crucial keys to pulling off the short-sleeved button-up. But the short-sleeve button-up shirt really isn't scary at all, and is indeed a menswear staple that's crucial to many looks, as well as an item that should be in every man's wardrobe. The short-sleeved button-up shirt is feared by menswear novices and veterans alike, probably because it conjures up images of Apollo-era NASA engineers, which strikes fear into the hearts of many men trying to shed a nerdy past (even though Cold War NASA can be a sick look in its own way, if done right). Even though r/mfa is probably going to hate us for it, possibly even kick the author off reddit, and block our lovely Esquire IP address from accessing the site, we're going to tackle this one here. Lately there've been a number of urgent inquiries about which and what items and styling options work and do not work, and the questions on the notorious short-sleeved button-up shirt caught our eye. Such experimentation expands the contingencies of use for the menswear staple, as variegated avant-garde-isms hint towards the multiplicity of possible, distant mainstream futures.Every now and again, we at Esquire like to swing by reddit's notorious male fashion advice subreddit (aka r/mfa) and see what dudes are talking about. Deconstructive impulses animate the tailoring choices of some designers, with asymmetric and mismatched material constructions, overlong sleeves, multiple wearing options, and modified collars emerging as notable tropes.
Traditional spread and button-down collars supply the means for hosting a tie and, by extension, achieving absolute properness.
Choice of collar radically determines the personality of a piece, with stand collar and open spread collar variants moving away from ritualized formality. Button-concealing plackets and satin trim feature on select garments, variously providing a clean minimalist sheen and a regal contrast that occasionally lapses into delightful pajama-top referencing splendor. Poplin, twill, and Oxford cloth button shirts appear in contemporary slim fits, boxier ‘dad’ varieties, and swing collared slouchy oversized pieces. Catering to conservative and anarchic inclinations and endless wearing contexts, the landscape of contemporary designer men’s shirts is indelibly vast.
