Head Porter Plus White Button-Down Shirt by Tim Yu

The classic white button-down is a staple and possibly the closest thing we have to an official CH uniform. For the modern man, it just might be the most important and versatile garment in their closet. But with all the variety out there, choosing the right one is harder than it seems. The best I've seen this season is the Head Porter Plus White Dress Shirt.

What makes Head Porter Plus' version different (and the perfect summer shirt) are hidden mesh inserts at the upper back and underarms providing extra ventilation in hopes of avoiding sweat and stains. Made of 100% cotton, the Head Porter Plus logo is uniquely placed on the side of the shirt and the buttons are genuine pearl exclusively.

Not a brand to be swayed by the current trends, the Head Porter collar is neither fat nor thin and lies at a traditional angle making for a rather timeless cut. Taking into account the label's high standard of craftsmanship and design, this is a white dress shirt that could last you a very long time.
