Tailoring features and material quality

The cotton-blend pinpoint oxford fabric

This shirt is made from a fine cotton-blend fabric with a pinpoint oxford weave. This distinctive textile construction interweaves light and dark threads, creating an elegant visual microstructure with a dry hand feel. The cotton provides excellent breathability against the skin, while the synthetic component of the yarn ensures remarkable wrinkle resistance and quick drying, greatly facilitating ironing, which is often necessary amid the demanding pace of priestly life.

Technical details and finishes of the clergy shirt

The garment has been designed with attention to every functional and aesthetic detail:

Clergy collar: Featuring the classic front opening for inserting the white collar tab, a distinctive symbol of the clergy.
Concealed button placket: The front features an elegant smooth placket that completely covers the buttons, giving the shirt a clean, understated, and refined look.
Functional pocket: Attached to the left side of the chest and finished with reinforced stitching, it is extremely practical for storing a pen or small notes during ministry.

Short sleeves: The hem is cut wide and comfortably, designed to promote freedom of movement and ventilation.
