Provenance

The button-down shirt originated in the late 19th century when polo players in England sought a practical solution to prevent their collars from flapping during matches. John E. Brooks of Brooks Brothers observed this innovation and introduced it to the American market in 1896. It quickly became a cornerstone of casual American menswear, embodying a refined yet relaxed aesthetic, often favored in breathable fabrics like linen.
