4-Way Stretch Fabric Technology
The foundation of this dress shirt is our advanced 4-way stretch cotton blend that delivers flexibility in all directions. Unlike traditional dress shirts that only stretch horizontally, our fabric technology incorporates 3% spandex woven throughout the 97% cotton base, creating bi-directional give that moves with you.
This performance construction eliminates the pulling and bunching you experience with conventional dress shirts when you reach, twist, or sit. The stretch recovery ensures the shirt returns to its original shape after wear, maintaining that crisp, professional appearance throughout the day. At $50, you’re investing in fabric innovation typically found in higher-priced performance dress shirts.
Slim Fit Sizing & Measurements
Our slim fit is tailored for a modern, athletic build with a closer cut through the torso and arms. The silhouette sits close to the body without clinging, creating clean lines under suit jackets while allowing full range of motion thanks to the stretch fabric.
Size selection follows standard dress shirt measurements—the first number indicates neck circumference in inches (14½ through 18), while the second number represents sleeve length from center back neck to cuff (32/33, 34/35, or 36/37). For reference, a size 16 34/35 fits a 16-inch neck with a sleeve length between 34 and 35 inches.
Care Instructions & Fabric Maintenance
Machine Washing
Machine wash this dress shirt in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the stretch fibers and color vibrancy. We recommend washing with like colors and avoiding bleach, which can damage the spandex content and weaken the stretch performance over time.
The wrinkle-resistant finish means most wrinkles fall out during air drying or a short tumble dry on low heat. Remove the shirt promptly from the dryer to minimize creasing, and hang on a quality hanger to maintain shoulder shape.
