The Oxford cotton shirt was born in the 19th Century, originating from Scotland, would you believe? The Scottish mill created shirts for four universities: Oxford, Yale, Harvard, and Cambridge. The Oxford shirt still lives on today and remains a staple shirt worn by men.
The Oxford shirt was a big hit with polo players due to its breathable and lightweight fabric, making it the best choice for sportswear at the time. Polo players used to pin down their collars to prevent them from being blown around, which evolved into the button-down collar. To this day, you can still purchase this iconic style.
Throughout its history, the Oxford shirt has been widely worn, from the mods in the 1960s to current A-listers, and even former president of the United States, John F. Kennedy.
