How does the broadcloth shirt compare with Uniqlo's Oxford shirt?

Broadcloth is thinner, smoother and dressier, and it presses crisper. The Oxford is heavier, more textured and more casual, and it wrinkles less.

Does it need ironing?

Yes, if you want a sharp look. The cotton creases in the wash, so iron it or hang it promptly while damp.

It is cut roomy through the chest and waist. Slimmer shoppers often size down or choose a slim-fit shirt instead.

On its own, no. It is a light shirting fabric, so wear it under a sweater, cardigan or jacket in cold weather.

Yes. The collar and plain broadcloth suit a tie for office or formal-casual settings.

Yes. Wash cold and tumble low or hang dry, then iron while slightly damp for the best result.
