Shirts for men - is this an impossible ask.

DH is very particular about clothing.

He wants some shirts for Christmas. They must be non-iron, this is non-negotiable. However, they also can't be too corporate/formal, and old-fashioned shaped collars are a no-no.

Yet he won't wear anything with a pattern on it that isn't a stripe or a check. They must also look like something an architect would wear in a movie while gesturing towards a model in trendy glasses.

Is there any such shirt in existence I ask you? I am not sure there is. I feel like I am being asked to find a unicorn.

Does your DH wear Oxford shirts? They're a nice casual option and usually need a lot less ironing. My DP does his own ironing and loves Gitman for Oxford shirts because they don't really need any ironing at all. They'e amazing quality and will probably last forever but quite £££. Also check out the shirts at End Clothing, great website for slightly more niche, high-end but casual brands and not quite as "obvious" as RL or Gant.

I've got a couple lately from the Jeff Banks outlet store, and they are pretty good, and actually not bad to iron. TM Lewin is worth a look but possibly too much choice.
