The Apposta shirt
Personalisable and tailor-made
The proposed styles are fully modifiable and are made especially for you, according to your personal taste and measurements. You are free to choose from a wide variety of fabrics and details.
Best Fabrics
Apposta has selected some of the world's most prestigious fabric manufacturers so as to offer you a wide assortment, ranging from classic fabrics to the most fashionable and trendy. All the fabrics offered by Apposta are certified by Oeko-Tex®, an association responsible for ensuring safety, in terms of human and ecological requirements regarding textile articles throughout the entire production process.
Wearability
The standard size shirts are based on the average size of European male body types. In order to receive a perfect fit shirt we strongly recommend you to create and enter your very own measurements profile and have your shirt made-to-measure (at no extra cost). Apposta adds an extra button to the bottom of every shirt to provide an impeccable and precise look. Particularly useful for robust physiques.
Distinctive features
The constituent parts of the shirts help to make every Apposta shirt unique in terms of quality and value. This translates, for instance, into the care with which the pocket motifs are aligned so as to maintain perfect stylistic consistency.
Apposta only uses the very best mother-of-pearl buttons.
To make every Apposta shirt perfect, the seams also have eight stitches per centimetre. Both the base of the armhole and the side are of English style workmanship (by applying a double-lapped seam), resulting in durable stitching and a crease-free seam.
The finishing of the border at the bottom of the shirt is carried out with a height of 5mm, a characteristic of the best quality tailored shirts. The superior quality of the shirts is highlighted by the extractable collar stays, made of materials that ensure smoothness without creating folds or creases.
Apposta has decided also to provide the shirt with another detail of style: in order to conform the production to the highest standards the last buttonhole of all the shirts Apposta is horizontal.
Fabric shrinkage
All fabrics used to make shirts tend to shrink slightly after the first 7 / 8 washes. This is taken into account during the making of your shirt, which will give the impression of a slightly looser, comfortable fit when new. All Apposta shirts come complete with spare buttons and stays. If necessary, Apposta is also able to supply spare collars, to be sent or to be applied directly to the shirts.
Prices
The price of an Apposta shirt is based on the quality of the fabrics used. The services, which include made-to-measure, customising and the application of an embroidered monogram, do not incur any additional costs.
The direct sale to worldwide end users allows us to eliminate distribution costs and therefore to maintain our prices between 30 - 50% lower than similar quality shirts sold in conventional centrally located shops. The savings are even greater in the event of made-to-measure shirts.
Only for deliveries outside the European Union, customs duties and taxes may also apply. The courier will ask for these before delivery. Those amounts depend on the law of the destination country applicable when the package is received and are beyond Apposta's control.
Oeko-Tex® certification
All the Apposta fabrics available in the catalogue have the Oeko-Tex® certification.
Oeko-Tex® is an international association founded in 1992 guaranteeing the absence of health risks in compliance with the Oeko-Tex® Standard 100.
For textiles and clothing companies, the catalogue of Oeko-Tex® criteria offers a scientifically proven assessment standard in order to guarantee the human-ecological safety of textile products. The catalogue also takes into account the globalised and extremely fragmented nature of the textile production chain.
The Oeko-Tex® label indicates that garments have the extra guarantee of having been assessed for their safety regarding human health.
The Oeko-Tex® association's slogan is "Confidence in Textiles", a promise of international responsibility in ascertaining raw materials, right up to the checking of the end products which are sold in stores.
