Men's Cotton Shirts

Cotton shirts are the default men's shirt — breathable, soft, comfortable across most Indian weather, and the fabric that improves with wear and washing. The Basics cotton shirt range covers 100% cotton in standard and finer-weave constructions, with Slim and Relaxed fits across the full colour palette. Solid, checked, striped, printed, and textured designs available. Pre-shrunk to maintain size consistency after washing, with crack-resistant buttons and double-stitched seams at the placket and cuffs. The shirt to own most of. Cotton shirts feel soft, breathable, gets better with washing. Cotton is best for year-round wear; the safe default for Indian weather. Care: wash cold (30°C), tumble dry low or line dry, iron medium. With proper handling, holds 2-3 years of regular wear with proper care. If you're picking between fabrics, cotton is the right call when comfort and breathability matter more than wrinkle resistance — and it remains the most-bought fabric in this range for everyday Indian wear conditions. Most cotton shirts in the Basics range are pre-shrunk and colour-fast through the first several washes; the structural integrity of the seams and finishes is engineered to outlast the colour of the fabric itself.
