How does the tailored fit compare with a regular fit?

It is cut closer to the body than a standard classic fit, with a cleaner line through the chest and waist. The brand's model is 6'2" and wears a medium, so taller shoppers may want to check sleeve and body length.

Is the shirt true to size?

It is described as a tailored fit, so it sits closer than a relaxed shirt. If you are between sizes or want room across the shoulders, take the larger size.

What is the fabric and how does it feel?

It is 100% cotton with a crisp, structured finish rather than a soft washed feel. Expect it to hold its shape and look sharp, with some ironing needed to keep it that way.

Is the chest embroidery removable?

No. The heraldic HC embroidery is stitched into the chest, so it is a permanent part of the design. If you want a logo-free shirt, this is not the one.

Can it be worn with a tie?

Yes. The classic button-down collar takes a tie, though the chest embroidery and check make it more naturally a smart-casual piece than formal business wear.
