Otto Handmade Dress Shirt in White Sea Island Poplin
DESCRIPTION
Our Otto shirts are beautifully handsewn in Italy at eight key points... because otto is Italian for ‘eight’; get it? Hand-assembling the stress points allows for a fit that moves along with you, and makes for a really, really special dress shirt, all the way down to the crow's-foot button stitching that's a signature of handwork.
And speaking of special, this one's made of Sea Island Cotton, an extra-rare variety of long-staple cotton widely regarded as the best of the best.
How rare? Well, it represents 0.00015% of the world's cotton supply.
That's, uh, one-and-a-half in a million.
Without getting too technical, the uniformity and strength of the fibers give it a durable, soft handfeel that improves with each wash.
Scarcity of the fabric aside, the shirt itself is made with a modified spread collar, lightweight fused interlining, slimmish cut, high armhole, long-enough-to-stay-tucked-in shirttail, and Trocas shell buttons.
Just like our other dress shirts, but a bit more elevated.
