Collar To create a traditional feel, the curve of the collar pattern has been reduced. The new pattern employs a lowered neckline to create a relaxed look when the collar is opened.
Body Compared to the slim fit, the sleeves and body have been kept spacious. By preserving the size of the back panel, together with bringing the side seams forward, we have incorporated the essential ideas of traditional British and American tailoring.
Sleeves The special characteristic of the Manhattan Model is its sleeves that naturally point forward. The curve of the sleeve has been tailored to match that of the jacket, which in turn means the cuff of the shirt sleeve and the jacket are parallel.
Details To preserve a traditional look, the shirt has a wider front and sleeve plackets, and also features a wider stitch width in comparison to the Slim Fits. The sleeve plackets employ double stitches to keep this taste. Inspired by the Ivy League style, only the yoke has been narrowed.
Pocket The pocket has been placed slightly slanted on the shirt so that it will appear straight when worn. As an added Ivy Look detail, the stitch on the pocket is straight. (*Button-down shirts only.)
The Essential Elements
Fabric Most of our fabrics have a minimum of 80 cotton yarn count to ensure the most exquisite feel.
Stitching The best quality shirts will place an indulgent 18 stiches, while we go a step further with 22 stitches, attained by the culmination of experience and the result of outstanding needle work.
Buttons Shell buttons are the hallmark of luxury shirts. Our natural shell buttons possess a unique sheen.
Interlining We use non-fusible interlining in order to achieve a natural-looking soft finish for collars, cuffs, and plackets.
