Scouted: If Your Button-Downs Could Use a Refreshing Upgrade, Go With High-Quality, Comfort, and Style.
Men have it easy in the tops department: Throw on a shirt that’s split in the middle and reassembled with the use of ancient technology (buttons) and voila—you’re elegant. You likely have one or two of these magic shirts in your closet and you could likely use an upgrade. We found some of the best ones around, with particular focus on options that take modern fabric technology and infuse it into their offerings.
Commuter Dress Shirt, $118 at Rhone: This is one of the strongest button-down upgrades you can make. I loved it when I first tried it and naturally shared Rhone’s expansion of the line with some great new colorways. Its Italian-made fabric is wrinkle-resistant, 4-way stretching, moisture-wicking, and machine washable for easy maintenance.
Hybrid Denim Shirt, $88 at Hill City: Ah, denim. A blend of cotton and polyester meets the brand’s cooling technology to give you the best of all worlds. Quick-drying and soft to the touch, this versatile shirt is your go-to whether you’re boarding a plane or planning a board meeting.
