White Pinpoint Oxford Cotton Cloth Long Point Collar Shirt

Drake's long point collar shirt in white pinpoint oxford is a plain dress shirt built on the oxford cloth tradition that sits at the centre of the house's range. Pinpoint is a finer, lighter take on oxford, smoother and slightly lustrous, while keeping the durability of the heavier cloth. The shirt is made in the firm's Somerset factory with a regular cut, single-needle seams and a brushed floating interlining in the collar. The long points suit it to wear with a tie or with an open neck.

Thomas Mason White Pinpoint

We chose Thomas Mason's white pinpoint because it matches the original's cloth closely: a lightweight solid white pinpoint in pure cotton. We kept the collar, cuffs and placket soft and unfused to come close to the floating interlining of the original, and we matched the plain front placket, shallow curved hem and mother of pearl buttons. Proper Cloth's configuration as made uses a soft point collar rather than a long point, a one-button barrel cuff, and lists no back pleat.

A white pinpoint oxford from the English mill Thomas Mason, woven from 80s two-ply cotton. It is light enough to wear in warm weather but has enough body to stand up to regular wear, and the hand softens and the drape loosens with repeated washing.

Care
The drape of the fabric only improves the more it's washed, and it will take on an even softer hand over time. Finish: No Treatment.
