Product Insights
This modern-fit oxford shirt from Le 31 offers a roomier chest (4 cm more than slim) and, when sized up, provides a relaxed drape without shoulder pull. Its fabric is soft from first wear yet retains the crisp, sturdy hand of traditional oxford, holds its shape all day, and breathes naturally. Made from 50% recycled cotton that saves up to 14,740 L of water per kg, it is the only recycled-cotton oxford at its $19.99 sale price—a sustainable, Canadian-designed Simons exclusive that blends contemporary comfort with classic cloth integrity.
Verified claims
- Fit
- In size L, the modern fit chest measures about 4 cm larger than a slim fit (approximately 120 cm vs 116 cm), while the cut is trimmer through the shoulders and sleeves than Uniqlo's regular-fit Oxford.
- Sizing up
- Sizing up one size yields a relaxed drape and prevents shoulder pull.
- Fabric feel
- Soft from first wear, yet retains the crisp, sturdy hand of traditional oxford.
- Shape retention
- Holds its shape through a full day of wear, reducing the rumpled look.
- Breathability
- Natural moisture absorption and breathability keep you comfortable.
- Environmental impact
- Using recycled cotton saves up to 14,740 liters of water per kilogram of recycled fiber compared with virgin cotton, so the 50% recycled blend substantially lowers the shirt's irrigation demand.
- Value
- At $19.99, this is the only recycled cotton Oxford in its price tier.
- Material
- 50% recycled cotton blend saves up to 14,740L water/kg and feels soft, breathable, and shape-retentive.
- Design
- Designed in Canada as Simons' exclusive Le 31 house brand.
- Size versatility
- Le 31's sizing is consistent, so the modern fit can be worn true to size and sized up one size for a relaxed, workwear-inspired drape.
- Sustainability
- Sub-$20 sale price for a recycled cotton shirt designed in Canada as a Simons exclusive.
- Waste and dye reduction
- The recycled cotton in this shirt also repurposes textile waste that would otherwise be landfilled, and because it is sorted by colour before shredding, it requires little to no additional dye.
- Care
- To minimize shrinkage, wash this shirt in cold water and hang dry.

| Colourful Oxford Shirt Modern Fit: Choose this if you want a long-sleeve Oxford shirt with a modern fit that hugs the body with fitted shoulders and narrow sleeves, plus classic details like a button-down collar, chest patch pocket, and barrel cuffs. It is made of Oxford fabric in a recycled cotton blend (50% cotton, 50% reprocessed cotton) and is a Le 31 by Simons exclusive designed in Canada. The listed variants are limited to Medium and Large in Peach, so it suits those sizes if that colour works for you.[1,2] | Monochrome Oxford Shirt Modern Fit: Choose this if you want an easy-wearing oxford for office-to-evening and cold-weather layering: reviewers describe the thick, textured fabric as substantial enough to look professional yet easy to dress down, and warm under a sweater or jacket. The relaxed modern fit is praised for all-day comfort while sitting, but it runs boxy rather than slim—sizing down is suggested if you want a trim silhouette—and the sleeves run long, often needing hemming or rolled cuffs. Expect to iron it, as the oxford cloth creases deeply after sitting or short wear.[3] | Oxford Shirt Comfort Fit: Choose this if you want a relaxed, roomy oxford: the comfort fit is a straight cut with extra room in the shoulders and sleeves, finished with a button-down collar, contrasting white buttons, and a curved hem. It is made of Oxford fabric in a 50% cotton, 50% reprocessed cotton blend, and comes in eight colors (from Black and Off White to Orange) in sizes Small through XX-Large. Note that the fit runs generously — one customer returned it as excessively loose, and the reviews analysis suggests sizing down if you prefer a trimmer look.[4,5] |
