Product information
Our 1923 Buccanoy Shirt is a must for formal occasions. The historical example of our 1923 Buccanoy series has its origins in the 1920s. A longstanding tradition: shirts with a banded collar have been used in men’s fashion since the mid 19th century.
But why? It has always been a difficult task to clean and starch white shirts, therefore it was invented to place buttons on men’s shirts to easily add and remove collars. Banded collar shirts have been used up to the 1940s until they were replaced by fold down collar shirts.
As with the original design you can you can attach a stand up collar to our 1923 Buccanoy Shirts.
