Mateo shirt
The verdict
Fit
A.P.C. men's proportions: snug shoulders, tapered sleeves, clean lines. Blue is a versatile anchor. True to size.
Quality
Typical A.P.C. construction: well-made cloth, durable buttons, no shortcuts. Not fancy, but reliable and long-lived.
Price check
At $147.50, this is mid-range for a men's cotton button-up. Fair price for the brand's reputation and fit accuracy.
Best for
Men building a wardrobe of versatile, well-cut basics that work across casual and smart-casual contexts.
Care
Cold wash, hang to dry; A.P.C. cloth softens nicely with laundering.

What owners report about A.P.C. button-ups
Third-party coverage of A.P.C.'s button-ups is thinner than for its denim, but what exists is consistent: decently made minimalist shirts in muted colors and garment-dyed fabrics, priced at the top end of the basics market. Forum posters describe the cut as lean and long in the body and sleeves, built around the brand's slim French silhouette. Consumer reviewers report fabrics that feel high-end and pieces that keep looking new for years. The recurring debate is value for money, and editorial coverage criticizes the brand's lack of production transparency.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently credit clean construction, muted garment-dyed fabrics, and simple designs that stay wearable for years.
- Watch out for
- Value is the recurring complaint — owners question the price for what are simple shirts — and editorial coverage dings the brand for opaque production practices.
- Sizing
- Forum posters describe the shirts as lean with long bodies and sleeves — order your usual size for a slim fit, and check measurements if you plan to wear them untucked.
