Basics Slim Fit Sesame Khaki Cotton Twill Melange Checks Shirt

A slim fit shirt in 100% cotton twill, cut from sesame khaki with a subtle melange checks pattern. The fabric weighs 150 GSM—substantial enough to hold its shape through the workday without feeling heavy, which matters in Indian summers when you're moving between air-conditioned offices and outdoor meetings.

The twill weave gives it more texture than a plain cotton shirt, so it reads less formal than oxford cloth but still works in professional settings. Paired with tailored trousers or other checked designs, this sesame khaki sits in that neutral zone between everyday casual and business-casual.

The slim cut works best if you prefer fitted sleeves and a tapered body. If you typically size up in slim fit shirts, do the same here. Wash in cool water to preserve the melange tone—the colour can soften slightly with repeated hot washes.
