The plain shirt is one of the finest expressions of Hast's vision of menswear. Since 2012, we have worked to refresh wardrobe classics by offering them in modern, elegant cuts at a fair and transparent price. The plain men's shirt is among these emblematic garments. But to fulfil its role as the cornerstone of the wardrobe, it needed precise finishes, a style that is both traditional and contemporary, and tangible quality. This has been achieved with this special selection of plain men's shirts, combining the elegance of two-ply weaving, the comfort of 100% cotton and carefully executed finishes in our specialist workshops. While all Hast shirts meet the same exacting quality standards, each has been designed around the wearer's daily life. By playing with the fineness of the fabrics, the type of fit, the collar or the colour, you will find the plain shirt perfectly suited to your own needs.
A plain shirt in a formal outfit
At the office
Those who wear a suit to work know how difficult it is to find a plain men's shirt that is both durable, well cut and offered at an honest price. All Hast shirts meet these criteria — but in terms of style, you cannot go wrong with the classic plain white poplin shirt or its blue cousin. For windy days, or simply for an always impeccable look, there is also a variation with a concealed button-down collar, keeping the collar in place in any conditions.
For formal evenings
Hast has also made provision for the smartest evenings. You can therefore opt for an outfit
formal by opting for a plain shirt with double cuffs, the only style that can showcase the highly distinguished cufflinks. And for dinners requiring a dinner jacket, there is no other choice than a shirt with a wing collar — permitted only with a bow tie.

Every day
For everyday wear, or for those with a more relaxed dress code at the office, there is the shirt
Oxford, buttoned or otherwise, offers the perfect balance between structure and ease, thanks to its textured, slightly heavier appearance. The plain shirt without a turn-down collar, such as a shirt with a Mao collar or a shirt with a band collar, is also becoming an increasingly sought-after piece.
At the weekend
When you wear a shirt to the office every day, you may want a little variety when the weekend or holidays arrive. The first option is to choose a plain shirt in a more original, textured fabric. Textured linen and slub denim for summer, or flannel for the colder months, offer excellent alternatives to poplin or Oxford. The second option is to play with the cut and finishes, for example by choosing a button-down collar, popularised on American campuses and since become timeless. Offered in a relaxed fit, slightly roomier with ease pleats, our plain men's shirt with
button-down collar evokes the effortless elegance of figures such as James Dean or Sean Connery.
