The verdict
Fit
Relaxed implies a non-tapered body and easier sleeve ease. Frame's relaxed pieces still have a contemporary cut, not oversize.
Quality
Frame's seaming and hem finish are consistent across fit types. Quality is stable.
Is the price fair?
Mid-premium for a contemporary relaxed shirt; fair if the fabric feels substantial and the cut is refined.
Best for
Anyone preferring a looser silhouette while maintaining designer polish.
Care
Confirm fabric blend before washing; care will depend on fiber content.
What owners report about Frame button-ups
The button-downs get a cooler reception than the brand's overall review averages: an independent reviewer of the roughly-$400 flagship shirt found nice construction but scored it 5/10, saying the fit was nothing spectacular and the price hard to justify. Aggregate coverage is warmer — one review site tallied a 4.17 out of 5 across 355 reviews, with customers praising fit, quality, and design — but that average leans heavily on the denim. Shirt-specific coverage is sparse and comes mostly from single-reviewer tests rather than a broad owner base.
- Strengths
- Reviewers acknowledge genuinely nice construction and refined silk and denim fabrications, consistent with the brand's strong overall ratings.
- Watch out for
- Price is the recurring complaint — the reviewer who tested the flagship button-down reported it felt good but not distinct enough to justify nearly $400.
- Sizing
- Fit reports conflict by style — one reviewer calls the cut slimmer and straighter and advises sizing up for room, while retailer fit data on the silk style reads as running big — so check each style's measurements.
