An Oxford shirt might typically be a less formal style shirt, such as a button down collar shirt, rather than a shirt with a stiffer collar, such as a poplin shirt.

About Oxford Shirts

An Oxford shirt will appeal to any man wanting a comfortable formal shirt, and there are many styles available. A button down shirt is typically made from Oxford weave, but you can find more formal Oxford shirts with double cuffs and cutaway collars for example. If you look at an Oxford shirt from close up, you will be able to see the basket weave texture of the material fairly clearly. This is especially apparent on coloured shirts, where many Oxford weaves are made using a contrasting colour in the weft and usually a lighter colour in the warp. This gives any coloured Oxford shirt quite a gentle colour, with subtleties created by the weave rather than simply one solid block of colour. An Oxford weave shirt is very soft and comfortable, but is a bit thicker than some shirt materials, such as poplin for example. If you like the Oxford weave style shirts, but prefer something in a thinner material, then look out for shirts in a Royal Oxford weave, where the material is more loosely spun, which means in a thinner, lighter cloth. There are other variations on the Oxford weave, such as the Pinpoint weave, which is a denser fabric which appear as lots of tiny pinpoint dots in the final weave construction.
