The Sexton spearpoint collar draws its inspiration from the sharp, close-cut shirt collars of the art deco period, as worn by individuals like Clark Gable, Fred Astaire and Humphrey Bogart. Our collars today are true to this nostalgic mid-century look, while remaining contemporary and sharp. We can offer clients over 50 different collar shapes to choose from, but our signature pin, tab, hidden-button-down and point collar designs remain firm favourites. Pin and tab collars breathe life into a tie, holding it high on the neck. Our hidden button-down collar sits comfortably when worn open beneath a jacket, and our retro point collar looks sharp spread over a jacket’s lapels. We offer slim and relaxed fits, and either a simple single cuff, or our signature deep double-cuffs, which compliment the proportions of our shirt collars.

All our shirts are made with set-in sleeves, and delicate single-needle stitching. We use nine stitches per centimetre in all our shirts for a very fine finish. The set-in sleeves are trickier to cut and sew than conventional shirt sleeves, but contribute to a cleaner shirt front. Our collars and cuffs are delicately sculpted and finished with swelled edges for a clean look. Real mother-of-pearl buttons and a traditional split yoke complete a shirt that is truly unique.

Our bespoke shirts are cut to your precise measurements, and we can accommodate clients of all shapes and sizes, from small necks to barrel chests. We cut collars to sit snugly inside a jacket’s lapels, and will tailor the lines and proportions of your shirt as is necessary to achieve a perfect fit. We like to cut our shirts with plenty of shape in the waist for an hourglass look, but are very happy to cut a more relaxed shape too.
