All garments are made to order by [Baron Boutique](https://baronboutique.com/okf/company.md). Every bespoke order includes a complimentary cotton test garment shipped before the final fabric is cut. An Off-the-Rack Shirt Fits Your Neck or Your Body. Almost Never Both. A ready-made dress shirt is sold on two numbers: your neck size and your sleeve length. Everything else, the chest, the waist, the shoulder, the cuff, is cut to an average that belongs to no one. So the shirt that closes cleanly at the collar billows at the waist, or the one that fits the body chokes at the neck. Most men simply accept this, tuck the excess in, and move on. It is the single most common fit compromise in menswear, and it is completely unnecessary. Every shirt here is made to your measurements, cut to your neck and your body and your arm, with the collar, cuff, and fit you choose. How to choose your shirt - [Egyptian Cotton, the Everyday Luxury](https://baronboutique.com/mens-light-blue-egyptian-cotton-shirt/): A 220-thread-count Egyptian cotton dress shirt, made to your measurements, with a soft, smooth hand and a subtle sheen that reads as quality without shouting. - [Raw Silk, Textured and Distinctive](https://baronboutique.com/mens-gold-raw-silk-shirt/): A raw silk shirt with a matte, slubbed texture that catches light differently from cotton, made to your measurements. - [Satin Silk, Smooth and Formal, in 20 Colors](https://baronboutique.com/satin-silk-shirt/): A 100% natural satin silk shirt with a smooth, luminous sheen, made to your measurements in 20 colors. The dressiest shirt in the collection, at home at a formal event or under a tuxedo, and the fabric having its moment … - [Linen, for Warm Weather](https://baronboutique.com/tailored-linen-shirts/): A pure linen shirt, made to your measurements, breathable and relaxed for summer, a beach or destination wedding, or a warm-climate day. It pairs naturally with a linen suit or stands on its own with the sleeves rolled. - [Cotton Twill & Oxford, the Workhorses](https://baronboutique.com/mens-light-blue-twill-cotton-shirt/): Crisp cotton twill and classic Oxford shirts, made to your measurements in white, light blue, pink, and navy, built for daily wear at the office and after it. - Your Collar, Cuff, and Details: Every shirt is configured as well as fitted: choose the collar style, cuff type for buttons or links, placket, pocket, and fit, so the shirt suits your face, your ties, and how you wear it. Choose your fabric Pick Egyptian cotton, raw silk, satin silk, linen, twill, or Oxford, and your color, on the product page. The price varies by fabric, not by size. Choose your collar, cuff, and details Select the collar style, the cuff for buttons or cufflinks, the placket, the pocket, and the fit, so the shirt is configured the way you actually wear it. Enter your measurements Enter your neck, chest, waist, shoulder, sleeve, and length on the product page, with a guide for each. This is what lets the neck and the body both fit, which a rack shirt cannot do.

If anything about the fit needs attention when it arrives, contact us and we will make it right. ## Questions & Answers **Q:** Why does an off-the-rack dress shirt never fit properly? **A:** Because a ready-made shirt is sized on only two measurements, the neck and the sleeve length, while the chest, waist, shoulder, and cuff are all cut to a fixed average. That means the shirt that fits your neck usually billows through the body, and the one cut slim enough for your body pulls tight at the collar. A shirt made to your measurements is cut to your neck, your body, and your arm at the same time, which is the only way to get all of them right. **Q:** What is Egyptian cotton, and what does 220 thread count mean? **A:** Egyptian cotton is a long-staple cotton whose longer fibers spin into a finer, stronger, smoother yarn than ordinary cotton, which is why it feels softer and lasts longer. A 220 thread count means 220 threads woven per square inch, a fine, dense weave that gives the shirt a smooth hand and a subtle sheen without becoming heavy. Together they make Egyptian cotton the benchmark for an everyday luxury dress shirt, and it is the cloth most of our cotton shirts are made from. **Q:** Is a raw silk shirt worth it compared to cotton? **A:** A raw silk shirt is worth it if you want a shirt that looks and feels distinctly different from cotton. Raw silk has a matte, slightly textured surface that catches light softly and reads as considered and unusual rather than standard, and it drapes with a weight cotton does not have. It is best for evenings, events, and occasions where you want to stand out, while cotton remains the more practical choice for heavy daily wear. Both are made to your measurements here. **Q:** What is the difference between a raw silk shirt and a satin silk shirt? **A:** Raw silk has a matte, textured, slubbed surface, while satin silk is smooth and luminous with a visible sheen. Raw silk reads as understated and tactile, ideal for a distinctive but not flashy look, whereas satin silk is the dressier, more formal of the two, at home at a black-tie event or under a tuxedo. Both are 100% natural silk and both are cut to your measurements, so the choice comes down to whether you want texture or shine. **Q:** Are silk shirts practical to wear and care for? **A:** Silk shirts are practical when cared for correctly, and many men wear them regularly. Hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle in cold water, hang to dry, and steam rather than press with a hot iron, and a silk shirt will stay beautiful for a long time. Silk is naturally breathable and temperature-regulating, which makes it comfortable across seasons, though for very heavy daily wear a 220-thread Egyptian cotton is the more hard-wearing choice. **Q:** What collar and cuff options can I choose? **A:** You choose the collar style and the cuff on every shirt, so it suits your face, your ties, and how you wear it. Collar options run from a classic point to a spread or cutaway, and cuffs can be button cuffs for everyday wear or French cuffs for cufflinks and formal occasions. You can also specify the placket, whether the shirt has a chest pocket, and the overall fit, all as part of the same made-to-your-measurements order. **Q:** What measurements do you need for a shirt? **A:** We need your neck, chest, waist, shoulder width, sleeve length, and shirt length, all entered on the product page with a short guide for each. If you have a shirt at home that fits the way you like, you can measure it flat and match those numbers, which many customers find easiest. Because the shirt is cut to all of these rather than just neck and sleeve, both the collar and the body come out right. **Q:** Do you make linen shirts for summer or a beach wedding? **A:** Yes, our pure linen shirts are made to your measurements and are ideal for summer, warm climates, and beach or destination weddings. Linen breathes better than any other shirting fabric, which keeps you cool through a hot day, and it pairs naturally with a linen suit or stands on its own with the sleeves rolled. It creases by nature, which reads as relaxed and appropriate in a warm-weather setting. **Q:** How should a dress shirt fit? **A:** A dress shirt should be close through the body without pulling at the buttons, sit flat across the shoulders with the seam at the edge of your shoulder, and end with about a finger of room at the collar when buttoned. The sleeve should reach the base of the thumb so a little cuff shows under a jacket, and the shirt should be long enough to stay tucked when you move. A made-to-your-measurements shirt is built to hit all of these at once, which is what an off-the-rack shirt cannot do. **Q:** Are these shirts made to my measurements or standard sizes? **A:** Every shirt here is made to your measurements, not sold in standard collar sizes. You choose the fabric, collar, cuff, and fit, then enter your measurements, and the shirt is cut and hand-finished to those numbers. There is no S, M, or L, and nothing pre-made, which is the reason the fit is correct through the neck and the body at the same time. **Q:** How long does a shirt take, and do you ship worldwide? **A:** A made-to-your-measurements shirt typically takes a few weeks from order to dispatch, and we confirm the current timeline when you order. We ship worldwide by trackable courier from Dubai, and you receive tracking as soon as your shirt ships. If you have several shirts to order or an event date, tell us and we will confirm the timing. **Q:** Can I order several shirts at once in different fabrics? **A:** Yes, and many customers do, because once your measurements are set they apply to every shirt you order. A common approach is a few 220-thread Egyptian cotton shirts for daily wear, a linen shirt for summer, and a raw silk or satin silk shirt for evenings, all cut to the same fit. Order each on its product page with the fabric, collar, and cuff you want for that shirt. ## Products - [Egyptian Cotton Dress Shirts](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/mens-light-blue-egyptian-cotton-shirt.md) - [Grey Raw Silk Shirt - Short Sleeves](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/mens-gray-raw-silk-shirt.md) - [Men's Twill Dress Shirts](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/mens-light-blue-twill-cotton-shirt.md) - [Navy Twill Shirt](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/mens-navy-twill-cotton-shirt.md) - [Satin Silk Shirt, 100% Natural Silk in 20 Colors, Custom Made](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/satin-silk-shirt.md) - [The Linen & Cotton Shirt](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/mens-dark-blue-linen-cotton-shirt.md) - [The Pink Oxford Shirt](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/mens-pink-oxford-cotton-shirt.md) - [The Raw Silk Shirt](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/mens-gold-raw-silk-shirt.md) - [The Tailored Linen Shirts](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/tailored-linen-shirts.md) **Related terms:** custom dress shirts, tailored shirts online, men's silk shirts, made-to-order shirt, fitted formal shirts ## Related - [Men Category Index](https://baronboutique.com/okf/categories/menswear.md) - [Browse all Shirts products](https://baronboutique.com/okf/products/menswear/shirts/index.md)
