Engineered for Performance

The Brook Taverner Alba Long Sleeve Shirt is designed for the modern professional who demands a sharper, more contemporary silhouette. Crafted from a high-quality 55% cotton and 45% polyester poplin blend, this 115 gsm shirt delivers exceptional durability without sacrificing comfort. The fabric is treated with an 'Easy Iron' finish, a crucial technical specification that resists wrinkles and ensures the garment remains crisp throughout the working day. The semi-cut away collar is a distinct design feature that accommodates a wider tie knot, such as a Windsor, offering a bold and confident look suitable for client-facing roles. Back darts are engineered into the construction to remove excess fabric at the waist, creating a streamlined profile that sits neatly under a suit jacket. This attention to architectural detail ensures that the Alba shirt not only looks superior but also performs under the pressure of a busy corporate schedule. It is the perfect match for our tailored Suits, creating a cohesive and commanding business presence.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

While the Alba features a Slim Fit, it is constructed to allow for comfortable movement. The cotton-rich blend ensures breathability, preventing the wearer from feeling stifled during high-pressure meetings or long shifts. The two-button cuffs with a button on the cuff gauntlet allow for precise adjustment, ensuring the sleeves sit correctly at the wrist. The curved hem is designed to stay securely tucked into trousers, maintaining a polished appearance even when reaching or sitting. For businesses, the slim fit option allows you to cater to staff who prefer a more fitted, fashionable look, ensuring high morale and confidence among your team. Despite its tailored cut, the shirt retains the robust wash-and-wear characteristics expected of high-performance workwear. It is a garment that bridges the gap between high-street fashion and industrial utility, making it a favourite for younger teams and premium brands. Coordinate with Ties to complete the executive aesthetic.
