Brooks Brothers Madison Fit Original Polo® Button-Down Oxford Dress Shirt
The shirt that started a revolution in menswear started at Brooks Brothers, and we’ve brought it back home along with authentic details. It’s made from long-lasting oxford cloth that gets better over time, and we’ve restored the signature rolled collar, softening it along with the placket and cuffs for comfort. We’ve added genuine mother-of-pearl buttons as well as gussets along the side seams for durability. Each shirt is made in our North Carolina workrooms from American-grown Supima® cotton-just what you would expect from The Original American Brand. Machine wash. The Madison fit is a classic cut, relaxed in the chest and sleeves. Also available in Regent and Milano fit.
