"Each morning the day lies like a fresh shirt on our bed; this incomparably fine, incomparably tightly woven tissue of pure prediction fits us perfectly. The happiness of the next twenty-four hours depends on our ability, on waking, to pick it up."
- Walter Benjamin (1892 - 1940)
Dress Shirts
The dress shirt is arguably the hardest working garment a man wears. It must look crisp from dawn to dusk, yet without the hidden canvas support the jacket enjoys. It must be comfortable yet well formed like the trousers, but do so with a lighter fabric. A man's choice of dress shirt will determine how he looks when the jacket comes off, the sleeves are rolled up and he gets down to business. For these reasons, at Remon's we choose to carry the shirts of only the finest tailors:
Robert Talbott Dress Shirts
Run your hand along the fabric of the Robert Talbott dress shirt and your eyes dilate. You feel the difference. This is no ordinary shirt. For more than forty years, Robert and Audrey Talbott sent men forth with the confidence of knowing their neckwear was topshelf. In 1990, the two brought their considerable resources to bear in offering the Robert Talbott dress shirt. Incredible attention to detail - from the split yoke and armhole to the triple-stacked mother of pearl buttons - is the hallmark of the single-needle hand-sewn Robert Talbott dress shirt. Enjoy!
Equilibrio Dress Shirts
Italians may be known for their remarkable craftsmanship in leather goods, but that craftsmanship also extends into the way they design their clothing. The dress shirts from Equilibrio are designed for men who have an eye for perfection, but do not want to be restrained by it. The Equilibrio shirt boasts a contemporary mien, with its Windsor-style spread collar, while at the same time preserving a timeless formality with an impeccable hand and textured weave. Made with 100 percent mercerized cotton. Que bellissimo!
Coppley Dress Shirts
Coppley offers an exceptional selection of off-the-rack and custom dress-shirt options. Owing their souls to the finest Italian mills, Coppley shirts are carefully constructed from a range of cotton, linen and cotton/linen fabrics chosen for their distinctive patterns, colors and finishes. Wearing the Coppley shirt makes a man feel like putting his hands on his hips and taking a strong stand.
Hickey Freeman Dress Shirts
Carved into the strong, oaken doorway of Hickey Freeman is the company motto, "Keep the Quality Up." It was this inspiration that moved Hickey Freeman from simply offering suits to also offering dress shirts. You see, it was difficult to see a man wearing an exquisite Hickey Freeman suit over a less-than-perfect shirt. It was like driving a Rolls Royce with velour seat coverings. So the proprietors of Hickey Freeman offer you the dress shirt - elegantly conceived, beautifully made, and designed to help you live up the to the Hickey Freeman motto.
