The oxford shirt made its debut very early on in Ralph Lauren’s designs, and since then it has solidified its status as a pillar of the Polo look. Our fabric is developed with a secret wash that gives it instant character, ease, and a heathered softness. The formula is so unique, it’s been kept in a safe for more than three decades. In addition to details that evoke its prep-school inspiration, it offers a relaxed feel that produces what we call the perfect “rumple.” Today, Mr. Lauren continues to create countless variations of his iconic shirt, including this version that is garment-dyed using mineral-derived ingredients to create a unique appearance that will continue to artfully fade for a timeworn look.
