The Oxford shirt is named for the fabric that its made from, oxford cloth, which has a distinct basket weave texture and subtle sheen. The fabric is mostly used for more casual shirts with a button down collar. Tucked into chinos or jeans, untucked with shorts, or worn underneath a blazer it's a comfy summer staple. A classic blue, crisp white, or pastels, will get you through an entire summer of long weekends, in the city or on Martha's Vineyard. It's a must have for every preppy wardrobe.
