Tailored Fit Light Blue Cotton Shirt with Kent Collar and 3-Button Cuffs
The verdict
Fit
Tailored fit is the brand's slimmest cut. The Kent collar offers a refined point-to-point collar style; 3-button cuffs signal fine tailoring. This will skim the torso.
Quality
Typical of Turnbull & Asser's core line: pure cotton, finish-focused construction, and collars that will hold their shape through regular wear and washing.
Price check
At 455 USD, this is entry-to-mid premium for a dress shirt. It sits lower than the Piccadilly but still commands a significant premium over mass-market dress shirts, justified by construction quality and fit precision.
Best for
A professional who needs reliable office shirts and has found their best fit in tailored cuts—willing to invest for proper tailoring and durability.
Care
Press the collar and cuffs promptly after washing to maintain crispness; the cotton will wrinkle naturally without ironing.

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.
