Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• Please note: With Beams Plus we go by the Japanese size as listed on the label.
• This shirt features a standard, timeless fit, offering a clean line through the body that works well both tucked and untucked.
• The Supima Oxford cloth is famously durable and features a substantial weight that drapes beautifully while maintaining its shape.
• Here at the store we recommend taking your usual size for a classic, tailored look, but if you prefer a roomier, traditional Ivy feel, you may wish to size up.
• The button-down collar is engineered with a perfect roll, designed to look sharp when worn open or with a knitted tie.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with similar colours to preserve the pigment.
• Do not tumble dry, instead hang the shirt to dry naturally on a hanger to maintain the collar shape and prevent shrinkage.
• Iron while slightly damp using a medium setting to easily remove creases and restore the smooth Oxford texture.
• Wash the garment inside out to protect the high-density stitching and the signature side gusset detailing.
• Avoid the use of harsh detergents or bleach, as the premium Supima cotton is designed to soften and age naturally over time.

Our Beams Plus Oxford Candy Stripe Shirt FAQs

1. What makes Supima cotton better than regular cotton?
   It uses extra-long staples which are significantly stronger and softer, resulting in a fabric that resists pilling and stays bright for years.

2. What is the benefit of the 3mm side seams?
   This narrow lock-stitch construction is a mark of high-end tailoring, providing a much cleaner profile and reducing bulk at the hips.

3. Is the Wine colour easy to style?
   Yes, the muted burgundy tones of the candy stripe act as a versatile neutral that pairs exceptionally well with navy, olive, or khaki.

4. Where is this shirt manufactured?
   All processes, from pattern cutting to final sewing, are completed by skilled craftsmen in specialized factories across Japan.
