Men's Maroon Plain Shirts
A maroon plain shirt gives you a versatile mid-tone that works across seasons without the visual weight of deeper burgundies. Our plain maroon shirts are woven from 100% cotton at 150 GSM—substantial enough to hold structure through repeated washing, light enough for the Indian summer and monsoon windows. The single-dye construction means the colour stays consistent across wear and wash cycles, without the fading you'd see in lower-quality cotton. Style this with grey chinos or dark denim for office settings, or layer it under unstructured blazers for informal meetings. The neutral maroon sits between casual and semi-formal, which is why it's useful beyond dedicated workwear rotations. One consideration: like all natural cotton at this weight, it will soften noticeably after 3–4 washes. If you prefer a crisper hand-feel, account for that in your first wear.

Frequently Asked Questions about Shirts
How does maroon compare to burgundy or wine-coloured shirts?
Maroon is lighter and more orangey than burgundy, which reads deeper and cooler. Burgundy absorbs more light and leans formal; maroon sits easier in casual-to-smart contexts. For India's warm months, maroon's mid-tone reflects slightly more heat than burgundy. If you need something for frequent office rotation, maroon pairs more naturally with greys and blacks. Burgundy demands more intentional styling and works better in cooler seasons or evening settings.
Will this shirt fit if I'm between sizes?
Our sizing runs true across the chest but runs slightly roomy in the sleeve and body length—intentional for the Indian fit preference. If you're between sizes, size down for a closer fit; size up if you prefer room for layering or have a larger shoulder span. Check our size chart for exact measurements before ordering. Maroon plain shirts are less forgiving with fit issues than patterned styles, so accurate sizing matters more here.
How often will I need to wash this before the colour shifts?
Expect visible softening in hand-feel after 3–4 washes and minor colour settling (the first wash may release excess dye—wash separately or with darks). The maroon won't noticeably fade for 15–20 washes at normal temperature. Washing in cool water and line-drying extends both colour and fabric life. High heat and machine drying accelerate fading, so avoid those if colour retention matters to you.
Can I wear a maroon plain shirt to a semi-formal event?
Yes, with caveats. Maroon reads semi-formal when paired with tailored trousers, structured shoes, and minimal patterns. It works for casual office dinners, client meetings in creative fields, or social events. Avoid casual shoes, t-shirt layering underneath, or athletic fits. The plain design means it relies entirely on cut and pairing—if your maroon shirt sits loose or wrinkled, it drops to casual instantly. Fit and grooming matter more here than with patterned options.
