Part of M.J. Bale Classics, the Alford Shirt is crafted from 100% cotton in a refined grid check design, woven from premium 60s compact poplin for a smooth, durable finish. Tailored to a Slim Fit, it features a classic collar, constructed front placket, and curved shirt tail for a clean, versatile silhouette. Thoughtful detailing — including single-needle French side seams, a four-piece back split yoke for superior fit, and high-quality non-fused interlinings in the collar and cuffs — ensures longevity and structure. Finished with removable collar bones, two-button cuffs, and subtle contrast stitch detailing, the Alford exemplifies refined craftsmanship and everyday wearability.
