Although it takes its name from England"s most famous academic institution, the oxford shirt has its origins on the backs of early British polo players, who wore shirts made from oxford cloth on the field and used pins to keep their collars in place during rigorous play. Over time, pins were replaced by buttons, and the oxford shirt became a staple of casual, prep-influenced style and a signature element of the iconic Polo Ralph Lauren aesthetic. This breathable, stretch cotton piqué version combines the tailoring of an oxford with the comfort and ease of a Polo shirt and is cut for a flattering slim fit.
