Mens long sleeve shirts

Shirts with long sleeves are considered an obligatory element of men's wardrobe. They will be appropriate both in the office and during friendly meetings. A shirt can tell a lot about its owner, ranging from his status, financial wealth and ending with the main character traits.

The style of the shirt directly depends on the features of its cut, there are three main sewing options:

• Classical. This model is appropriate as office wear. The classic model looks elegant, but strictly and invariably advantageous. These shirts are usually worn with a suit. It is allowed to use classic shirts under a sweater - in this case, they look more informal. These shirts are sewn in white or pastel colors.

• Fitted. A distinctive feature of this shirt is a semi-adjacent cut. The model is suitable for slim and fit men. Fitted styles will be appropriate for meetings with friends, a date or a warm holiday. The fitted model should not be too narrow, otherwise the movements will be constrained. It is equally not recommended to cut too loosely - such models look sloppy and untidy.

• Loose fit models. This is a versatile model that is optimal for both business events and get-togethers with friends. The style combines laconicism, practicality and comfort to wear. However, one should not confuse a loose model with a baggy one: the first favorably demonstrates the figure of its owner, and the second, on the contrary, completely hides it, as a result the man looks too heavy.

The most popular materials for shirts are cotton and linen, such products are sure to be present in the assortment of any self-respecting brand. These materials are excellent at dissipating heat, and with proper tailoring they look very stylish.

Linen shirts are considered the best: the fabric breathes, does not deform after washing. However, linen wrinkles a lot and it will be difficult to smooth it out., therefore, as an everyday option, it is better to give preference to models from a different canvas.

Cotton shirts are optimal for friendly parties, but will also be appropriate for a formal ceremony. It must be remembered that cotton clothes are easily wrinkled and extremely sensitive to any chemicals (powders, bleaches and conditioners). Ideal options are blended cotton fabrics with a small amount of synthetic fibers.

Blended fabrics are generally much cheaper than 100% cotton. but at the same time, the product from them looks aesthetically pleasing. Of the minuses (in the presence of a large number of synthetic fibers), one can distinguish reduced resistance to high temperatures, as well as poor air permeability: it can be hot in such clothes, as a result, sweat marks can be visible under the armpits.

As a rule, such shirts have a low price, however, during washing, they often shrink or, conversely, stretch, therefore very quickly lose their original appearance.

It is a hygroscopic and environmentally friendly material that is warm and comfortable. Flannel shirts are in almost every man's wardrobe. They are appropriate in the country, at a party, at work and on a walk. The only problem - hot water may cause the fabric to "shrink", and during washing, the fabric should not be rubbed vigorously, as pellets may form.

Delicate and pleasant to the touch material with a beautiful shimmer. Among the cons are specific requirements for detergents, as well as the ironing mode and washing capabilities.

Classic shirts are slightly lengthened, unlike sports shirts. They are not designed to be worn outside., accordingly, the length should be calculated so that the shirt does not knock out of the trousers, even if the man is sitting, moving or raising his arms. Sports styles, on the other hand, in most cases are not tucked into the pants, respectively, their length is shorter.

To understand whether it is worth tucking a shirt into trousers, you can start from the style of the shirt: if you adhere to the casual or classic style, then the answer is obvious - yes. Sports shirts are not tucked in, and in all other cases, dressing a shirt is just a matter of taste.

When creating shirts, designers pay special attention to the fabric where the buttons are sewn - it is called a fastener. She may be:

• Ordinary - in this case, it looks like a shelf, and there are loops on it.
• On the bar - the strip with loops is covered with a stylish decorative strip of fabric.
• Closed - here the edges are sewn together like a separate strip of fabric.

In stores, you can see the widest selection of shirts with elongated sleeves. They can be roughly divided into two leading styles: classic and sporty.

Distinctive features of the classic style:

The highlight of any image can be color models with prints: such options look much more interesting than plain ones. but avoid too acidic patterns, otherwise, you risk looking vulgar. The best option would be a light plant coloring. Without a doubt, the leader of recent seasons is cage, among the most popular colors are green, purple, red and yellow prints.

Regardless of the season, a shirt with a turn-down collar is at the top of popularity. The only requirement for such models is a flawless fit and high quality.

The military style in men's shirts looks especially brutal - any woman will agree with this. If you want to look fashionable, be sure to get at least one military-style shirt.

For men who do not like ties, you can advise branded collarless zippered shirts. This new cut does not require any additional decoration. Among the top youth trends, there were unexpectedly elongated options for shirts - up to mid-thigh or even up to the knee, such products look free and very bold.

Many men prefer high-quality shirts from well-known manufacturers - Hugo Boss, Lacoste, Marks & Spencer, as well as O 'stin and ZARA.

• Density of stitches. A sign of poor quality - there are no more than 4-6 stitches for every centimeter: top-class shirts have 8-9 stitches.
• A thread... It is best to give preference to shirts, the thread of which is assembled by the method of double twisting: such matter will be pleasant to the body, and the product itself will serve for quite a long time.
• There must certainly be a wedge at the junction of the shelf and backrest, it helps to strengthen the seam and additionally serves as a decorative element.
