Discover our guide and find out what cuff fits your style best.

Rounded Single Button Cuff

A classy and timeless look – our Rounded Single Cuff is a standard shirt cuff that you can’t go wrong with. The single cuff wraps around the wrist and is buttoned into place with a single button. The rounded edges give a soft touch to your look, making this cuff functional, versatile and easy to wear. It works perfectly with or without a jacket, and is a default cuff style for most business and casual shirts.

French Cuff

The Italian Spread Collar is a modern collar style and can be worn on formal or semi-formal occasions. It is characterised by wider collar points which are angled outwards instead of pointing down. Team this collar style with a full or half Windsor knot, or dress it down without a tie.

Rounded Two-Button Cuff

The Rounded Two Button Cuff is slightly longer than our regular Single Cuff, and has buttons that are aligned vertically rather than horizontally. This setup naturally lends itself to dressier ensembles and brings your style to a higher sartorial level without having to undergo the formality of French Cuffs and cufflinks. Besides, the rounded edges give a modern and functional look, making it a great option for work or anywhere you need to be smartly dressed.

Two Button-Angeled Cuff

The Angled Cuff is characterised by the 45-degree angle at the corners, creating a striking shape and sharp appearance. The detailing is an interesting accent and adds an element of panache to your shirt. It is a crisp and modern option when you want to emphasize a nice watch or simply just want a more formal or professional look.
