Short Sleeve Shirts

The short sleeved shirt perfectly straddles the boundary between casual and smart. As part of a formal ensemble it can create an air of confidence whilst also being ideal for a night out, indicating to anyone and everyone present that you’ve made an effort without feeling the need to try too hard. And most importantly, it doesn’t look like you’ve come straight from work – even if you have! From boutique names to designer brands you’ll have no problem stocking up your wardrobe at Stylight.

Style and versatility

The best thing about short sleeved shirts is the fact that they go with pretty much anything. If you’re going for a casual, effortless look then a cardigan from Daniel Hechter could work, perhaps combined with a scarf. Equally if you’re after something slightly more heavyweight then a jacket from Schott NYC might be just the ticket.

Perfect for any occasion

Where short sleeved shirts really come into their own is in casual wear. Jeans combined with a pair of Gola shoes can create a masculine look that tells people you care about your appearance, but you’re not overly hung up on it. A satchel bag from Esprit can help give an intellectual sheen to the whole look, whilst conveniently giving you somewhere to put your belongings whether you’re commuting or just kicking back and relaxing.

Enormous variety

With the abundance of shirts available, if you can think of a pattern then it’s probably been made, so if you’ve got something particular in mind then you’re almost certain to find it in our wide selection. You might even find something you hadn’t considered before, and with a wide range of brands to suit all styles and budgets, there’s sure to be something for everyone at Stylight. Why not check out what we’ve got and pick yourself a short sleeved shirt from your favourite designer today?

Shirting The Issue: In Defense of Short Sleeve Shirts

What once struck fear into the hearts of men is now making a massive return to the forefront. Both stylish and practical, the short sleeve shirt brings swagger to any rotation of warm weather gear. Get out those guns and show some love to the short sleeve shirt.

Fit:

Treat this shirt like a polo and wear it slim but not tight. Sleeves should hit mid-bicep and fit close to your arms. Short sleeve shirts should be short enough to wear untucked in casual settings and streamlined so no excess fabric is billowing at the waist.

Color:

In a variety of washes and colors, this shirt is a unique way to switch up your sunny weather staples. White and black works well on everyone, along with navy blue and chambray. Bolder shades like red and yellow make more of a statement. Whatever color you choose it should harmonize with the rest of your outfit.

Details:

Details make all the difference so pay close attention. Chest pockets and contrast plackets add a more casual component while pocket squares and ties should be avoided altogether. Button your shirt to the top if you want to look sharp or leave it undone for a more relaxed, weekend vibe.

Prints:

Prints can be problematic but instantly elevate your outfit. Stick with something simple like stripes, plaids or dots. Match the right colors to your skin tone and stick to plain pants, denim and shorts.

Style:

Short sleeve shirts exude a breezy, loosened up look when wearing off-duty and make you a bit more polished than your fellow sand dwellers. They work with any shade of denim as well as shorts and swim trunks. For an anywhere option team with chinos or trousers and summer-ready footwear like boat shoes, sandals and sneakers.

Clean, crisp and casual, a short sleeve shirt is a menswear must. As the heavy heat hits, this shirt will keep you adequately at ease.
