What You Need to Know About Shirt Collars
A detail often overlooked by most, your collar is just as essential as the color and fit of your shirt.
The Straight Point
The staple of a man’s wardrobe works on almost every face and is suitable for most occasions.
The Button-Down
The straight point collar's preppier cousin does the job for more casual affairs. Its sporty roots traditionally prohibit it from being worn with a suit and tie, but feel free to break the rules with the dressed-up options designers and retail brands have been releasing.
The Cutaway
If you’re looking for something bolder, consider the cutaway collar for a dose of rakishness. Being the widest of the spread collar family, it’s meant to be worn with a wide knot such as a Windsor or Pratt.
The Band
The sleekest and also the most casual. Wear it with a sport coat to keep it strictly business and, when the weekend comes along, undo a few of buttons to underscore its no-fuss appeal.
