Men's Long Sleeve Shirts
Roll your sleeves up. Want to get it done? Want to look like you're getting it done? Roll up, roll up... Long sleeve shirts, button up shirts, overshirts, casual and now even formal dress shirts. All the colours and fabrics you're looking for, right here. One even has a horse on the back.
How Should a Long Sleeve Shirt Fit?
A good long sleeve shirt should feel like it was made for you. Even if you bought it online during a lunch break. The shoulder seams? They should sit right on the edge of your shoulders, not somewhere near your biceps. Sleeves? They should brush your wrist bone without bunching like an accordion. And the torso? Think clean lines, not cling film.
Percival’s men’s long sleeve shirts are cut to flatter, tailored but never tight, relaxed but never sloppy. The aim is to look effortlessly put together, whether it’s buttoned up for dinner or open over a plain tee at the pub. If it feels like you could comfortably order another pint in it then you’re wearing it right.
How to Style a Long Sleeve Polo Shirt
The long sleeve polo shirt is a quiet overachiever. It works for office Fridays, weekend brunches and late-night gigs without breaking stride. So let us keep it simple. Layer under a wool overcoat for polish or wear it solo with our straight leg trousers for that “just turned up like this” confidence.
Percival’s long sleeve polos earn their place through detail. Structured collars that never fold under pressure. Premium cotton that keeps its shape. Subtle textures like basketweave and pin stripe as well as British embroidery crafted in our London workshops.
They work with basically everything. Jeans, coats, even shorts when the weather behaves. Roll the sleeves if you are feeling relaxed. Chuck on a tie if you are feeling brave. Either way, you look like you actually tried—and that’s the whole point.
The Best Fabrics for Long Sleeve Shirts
Fabric makes or breaks a shirt, literally. Go cheap, and you’ll feel it by lunchtime. Go Percival, and you’ll feel like a man who owns both an iron and a great wardrobe.
Our men’s long sleeve shirts come in breathable linen, brushed cotton, and soft knit weaves. Linen keeps you cool during summer commutes, cotton offers everyday comfort, and heavier flannels add depth in winter. The key is texture giving the outfit character, even when the palette’s neutral. Choose heavier fabrics when layering under jackets or knitwear. Basically, think of fabric as the foundation of your outfit. Nail it, and you can wear the same shirt in five different ways before anyone catches on.
How to Layer Men’s Long Sleeve Shirts
Start with the basics. Under a crew neck or quarter zip, the collar sits neatly. Smart enough for the office, comfortable enough for a trip to the Devonshire. Add a blazer and you’re in full professional territory. Easy, polished, done. When summer rolls in, lose the knitwear and let the shirt breathe. Open over a T-shirt, sleeves rolled, collar relaxed. Two or three folds is the magic number; enough to look intentional, not like you’ve just escaped a meeting. That’s the sweet spot between casual and considered.
Can You Wear a Long Sleeve Shirt Casually?
Of course. That’s the point. The men’s long sleeve shirt isn’t just for meetings or weddings. It’s a seven-days-a-week operator. Button it up for something sharp, or wear it open.
Think less “boardroom,” more “beer garden.” A white linen long sleeve with rolled sleeves and sunglasses? Effortlessly cool. A flannel with denim? Autumn sorted. A long sleeve polo with smart trousers? Date-night level confidence.
