Understanding Men's Dress Shirts:
A dress shirt is the collared, button-front shirt worn under a suit or sport coat, or on its own for business and semi-formal occasions. Jos. A. Bank carries dress shirts in slim, tailored, and traditional fits, so the shirt sits close to the body or leaves extra room through the chest and waist depending on preference.
Fit is the first decision: slim fit shirts taper through the body for a close silhouette, tailored fit sits between slim and traditional, and traditional fit offers the most room for a classic, relaxed cut. Check the dress shirt fit guide to match neck and sleeve measurements to the right size.
Fabric and finish matter as much as fit. The Traveler line is built in wrinkle-free fabric for shirts that hold a crisp look through a flight or a long day, while the house Jos. A. Bank line covers everyday cotton dress shirts in a range of colors and patterns. Read more on dress shirt materials.
For special occasions, French cuff shirts take cuff links instead of buttons, and tuxedo dress shirts are built for black-tie events with pleated or piqué fronts and wing or spread collars. See dress shirt collars, cuffs and other details for how to choose between them.
Complete the outfit with a suit or sport coat and a coordinating tie. Boys can match the look through the boys' dress shirts range, and shoppers who want a shirt built to exact measurements can start with custom dress shirts.
Frequently Asked Questions
What fits are available for men's dress shirts?
Jos. A. Bank dress shirts come in three fits: slim fit for a close, tapered silhouette, tailored fit for a balanced cut through the chest and waist, and traditional fit for the most room. Neck sizes run from 14.5 to 20, with sleeve lengths to match, including big and tall options.
How do I know what size dress shirt to buy?
Measure your neck at its base with a finger of slack for the collar size, then measure from the center back of the neck to the wrist with the arm slightly bent for sleeve length. The dress shirt fit guide walks through both measurements step by step.
What is the difference between a dress shirt and a formal shirt?
A dress shirt has a plain front and standard collar and is worn with a suit for business or semi-formal occasions. A formal shirt is built for tuxedos, with a pleated or piqué front and a wing or spread collar designed to pair with a bow tie.
Are wrinkle-free dress shirts good for travel?
Yes. Wrinkle-free dress shirts, such as the Traveler line, use a fabric finish that resists creasing in a suitcase or garment bag, so the shirt looks pressed after a flight or a long day without needing an iron.
