We choose styles that are both timeless and modern. We think trends are for suckers, and you'll never find a Hugh & Crye shirt with a goofy logo or unnecessary flair. You won't look like every other guy on the street when you wear one of our shirts, and we mean that in a good way. We feel that nothing you wear should be louder than your own personality. You'll wear our shirts for years to come.

Collars

We think the collar is the single most important component of a dress shirt. From the stand to the shape, we're obsessive about collar styles, and getting perfectly crisp look in each new style we introduce. From deep cutaways to classic points, we believe in having a mix of collar styles.

Cuffs

Who knew there were so many styles of cuffs beyond a simple "barrel" cuff and a "French" cuff? We love cuffs - the weight of them, their shape, whether they take links, and how they add a bit of personality to a classic dress shirt. A well made cuff makes all the difference.

Fabrics

All of our shirts are made from 100% Egyptian and Pima cotton, most in two-ply fabrics with up to 140s yarn counts, resulting in shirts that are both luxurious and durable. The fabrics have light, eco-friendly finishes that are soft but wash and iron easily.

Fabric Weave

The weave is the way in which the threads of cotton (called warp and weft) are actually put together to make a fabric. Different techniques create different properties and textures in the fabric. We use a variety of weaves to ensure that all of our shirts have a unique style and feel.

Construction

Our single-needle construction ensures a cleaner look and stronger seam, and interlined cuffs, collars and plackets give our shirts extra structure for a crisper, more professional look. They also feature gussets, which protect the seams from tearing and plastic buttons that are both durable and beautiful.

Shirt Care

All Hugh & Crye shirts are made of 100% cotton and should therefore be cared for as a living, natural garment. In our experience, the best way to keep your shirts as fresh and crisp as the day that you got them is to use a cold wash, then hang dry and iron with care.
