The Human Made Oxford Striped BD Shirt Blue is an extensive guide to the shirt.

What This Shirt Is

Human Made Oxford Striped BD Shirt Blue is an Oxford shirt of Japanese brand Human Made, which is a button-down type shirt. It is 100% cotton Oxford striped. The fabric is soft and won’t lose its form when washed.

There is a patch with a heart on the left side of the chest. On the left front placket and left sleeve is the tonal embroidery. It’s subtle, the same color as the shirt. The buttons are shell with the brand logo while the cuffs are heart-shaped with buttons.

Colors are Blue, Gray and Orange. Sizes range from XS – 2XL. If you have a model that is 184cm in size, then a size L will look good but not too big. If you’d like it looser, up a size. If you prefer it to be closer to your body, choose the size you normally wear for a Human Made t シャツ.

How to Wear It

This shirt is quite easy to wear. Button up with Human Made wide denim pants or chinos. Keep it up over a white tee. The stripes are narrow and won’t compete with other stripes.

This shirt is a good second layer under a Human Made Jacket or a stadium jacket. No bunching at sleeves.

When it comes to street wear fashion, you can wear it as a light overskirt. Roll cuffs just once, making the heart buttons appear. In summer wear with shorts and in cooler months with Human Made デニム.

Care Instructions

Wash on a cold or lukewarm gentle cycle. Flip it inside out when washing to prevent contact of the embroidery/patch with other clothing. Do not bleach. Dry in the tumble dryer on a low setting or hang in the shade.

Press on the back if ironing is necessary, using medium heat. Don’t iron on top of the heart patch or the embroidery. The first few times, wash it with similar colors; blue dye will bleed a little at the beginning.

Avoid long periods of soaking. The embroidery thread and patch will have a longer lifespan if you treat it gently, whereas Oxford cotton will be sturdy enough.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Human Made Oxford Striped BD Shirt Blue run true?

It is slightly spacious. There is a degree of ease in the body. For those in the middle of shoe sizes, it’s a better idea to go for the smaller one if you want a more tidy appearance. For a relaxed fit, go with your usual ヒューマンメイド size.

Does it come in a machine washable fabric?

Yes. Gentle cycle, inside out or cold/warm water. Dry on the hangers or on the tumble dryer on LOW. Don’t bleach.

Does the blue color fade?

It might soften a bit over time—this is expected to happen to cotton. Use colors to wash and use some colors for drying to keep it looking fresh without direct sunlight.

Where is it made?

China. The fabric and construction are the same as all other Human Made シャツ.

May I wear it during the summer time?

Yes. Oxford cotton is a breathable fabric. Tie the sleeves and wear it open over a t-shirt. It’s not as light as a Human Made t シャツ on a hot day, but it’s not too thick either.

What about the color of the design?

Gray and Orange are in the same cut! It is the Blue that’s most often requested, but the other two are easier to match if you already have a lot of blue.

How to check stock in Japan?

The main hub is the Human Made online store. Seasonal stock is used for Human Mede’s Fukuoka and Tokyo stores. Use an international site and/or a proxy service if outside of Japan. Be sure to follow the Human Made PAKER and the Human Made Jacket as well because they frequently restock at the same time as the shirt drops.
