Button-Down Collars for Custom Shirts
Here are 5 different types of button-down collar which you can use when making a custom shirt
Button-down collars feature buttons which fix both collar points in place. These buttons can either be visible or hidden. Visible buttons are a more casual option whereas hidden buttons are smarter.
This collar type is best suited to casual shirts, complementing linen, flannel and Oxford fabrics.
