At Hast, we have designed the cut of our casual shirt to be as comfortable as it is elegant. The ease pleat in the back promotes great freedom of movement. This is why it is the ideal shirt for a casual style, without compromising on refinement.

The characteristics of a casual shirt

You can recognize a casual shirt by its cut and details. Unlike a formal shirt, a casual shirt emphasizes the silhouette without hugging the shape of the body. The shoulders are ideally highlighted. The collar is rather soft; the rigid collar being reserved for the formal shirt. Our relaxed-fit Oxford shirts have a button-down collar and this is also the case for our denim or chambray shirts. The cuffs of a casual shirt are usually rounded or straight.

What fabric should you choose for a casual shirt?

Depending on the materials used, the overall look of the shirt will be different. For example :
Linen: this material is reserved in particular for summer, because it is very breathable, even more so than cotton. Linen absorbs moisture quickly and dries easily. Cotton: very respectful of the skin, it lets it breathe even during extreme heat. It is also a very flexible material. Oxford: with its grid weave, Oxford fabric brings elegance and originality to the shirt. Denim and chambray: the perfect fabrics to wear at work or on the weekend, for a workwear-inspired style.

How to wear a casual shirt correctly?

Don’t hesitate to play with the shifts. Indeed, a casual shirt fits perfectly under a sports jacket or cardigan. To accentuate the contrasts, you can wear a darker shirt and add a light jacket or vest on top. For example, our casual blue safari shirt is a shirt in the ideal color, easy to match with your outfits. We advise you to combine it with camel, gray or beige chinos. The relaxed cut of the shirt, combined with a buttoned collar, ensures perfect support and great freedom of movement. To get to work hassle-free, opt for a plain textured chambray shirt and pair it with navy chinos or raw jeans. Don't miss out on our casual denim shirt. We recommend our denim shirt with a stand collar. This shirt is a big highlight for a look that is both neat and casual. Our denim is distinguished by a unique wash developed with Albiate, the Italian denim specialist. The great advantage of this shirt is that it goes perfectly with any outfit. Don't hesitate to wear it with chinos or jeans in another shade. The officer collar makes it a timeless and very easy to wear shirt.
