I'm delighted to announce a competition in collaboration with Budd Shirtmakers offering a Grey Fox Blog reader the chance to win £250 to spend at Budd, maybe towards a bespoke denim shirt like the one I feature below. For more information, see below.
Budd Bespoke Denim Shirt
We think of denim shirts as casual, beat-up, faded casual wear, so a bespoke denim shirt would seem a contradiction in terms. However, I've just had one made by Budd Shirtmakers and it's been a great success. Being denim, it's versatile enough to be wearable as both a casual shirt and something more formal.
Below I wear the shirt with blazer and flannels, a corduroy suit, a tweed jacket and you can even go double denim and wear it with jeans.
if you want to try double denim that works too, as it looks great with jeans with a blazer and tie:
The denim for the shirt is woven by Thomas Mason in Italy from two-fold indigo dyed cotton. It is washed for a soft handle, that gets better and softer the more wash and wear it gets - as I'm discovering. Naturally the shirt (cut by James MacAuslan) fits perfectly and is beautifully made.
I'm delighted to say that Budd have offered Grey Fox Blog readers the chance to win £250 to spend with Budd; to perhaps invest in a made to measure denim shirt, update your back to work wardrobe or upgrade your working from home get-up.To enter, enter your contact information on the Budd Shirts website and if possible follow Budd on Instagram too. The competition closes Wednesday 31 March 2021 (T&Cs apply).
