Navy Hampstead Overshirt
The verdict
Fit
Regular fit overshirt in wool-cotton blend. Overcuts are inherently roomier; expect significant ease through the chest for layering.
Quality
57% wool 43% cotton blend at Turnbull & Asser suggests a warm, durable layer. Wool adds resilience; this should resist wrinkles better than pure cotton.
Price check
At 1,755 USD, this is a significant investment. You're paying primarily for the wool content and brand prestige, not everyday utility.
Best for
A collector or someone in a very cold climate who needs a substantial, durable layering piece.
Care
Wool requires dry cleaning or specialist wool-safe laundering to prevent shrinking and felting.

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.
