The verdict
Fit
Regular fit with double cuffs and contrast collar work for more formal occasions. End-on-end weave gives subtle texture.
Quality
Cotton construction typical of Turnbull & Asser. Double cuffs and contrast collar are precision details that define their premium offering.
Is the price fair?
475 USD reflects their full premium tier. Value depends on your trust in their tailoring and collar design.
Best for
Professionals buying formal or occasion shirts who value heritage tailoring and cufflink styling.
Care
Cotton with double cuffs requires cufflinks or careful ironing; wash regularly to preserve the weave texture.
What owners report about Turnbull & Asser button-ups
Forum posters rate Turnbull & Asser shirts among the top tier of English ready-to-wear for construction, citing dense stitching, hand-sewn side-seam gussets, and consistently clean finishing. The recurring gripe is price rather than quality: several Ask Andy posters call the shirts good but dreadfully expensive, arguing similar quality can be had elsewhere on Jermyn Street for less. Reviewers also note the styling reads business-first — the house medium-spread collar does not sit as well worn open — so the line suits tucked, tailored wear better than casual use.
- Strengths
- Owners consistently report first-rate English construction — dense stitching, reinforced seams, collars that keep their shape — with quality described as flawless and consistent across the range.
- Watch out for
- Reviewers say you pay a steep heritage premium, and the formal cut and collar styling limit the shirts' usefulness worn casually or open-necked.
- Sizing
- The old generous cut has been phased out for a decidedly slimmer ready-to-wear block, so longtime buyers report the current fits run trimmer than they expect; Regular remains the roomiest of the three fits.
