Portobello Shirt
The verdict
Fit
Holiday fit suggests a fuller, more generous cut for relaxed, resort-style wear. Short open collar reads decidedly casual.
Quality
Cotton check construction at Turnbull & Asser quality. Open collar and 1-button cuff are deliberate leisure-wear styling.
Price check
715 USD is at the absolute premium end, justified only if you value the brand name and holiday positioning heavily.
Best for
Affluent buyers seeking a luxury casual shirt for vacation or resort wear.
Care
Cotton check; wash normally. The open collar requires no collar stays or special pressing.

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.
