Basics Slim Fit Puce Maroon Cotton Checks Shirt

Puce maroon 100% cotton checks shirt in a slim fit—a versatile piece that sits between formal and casual without trying too hard. The fabric is woven at 140 GSM, dense enough to hold its shape through the day but light enough for the Indian climate, particularly useful during transitional months when a full jacket feels excessive. The check pattern reads understated in this deeper maroon tone, making it work across settings where a solid would feel too safe but a bolder pattern might overwhelm.

Style this with tailored trousers for office settings, or pair with our other cotton shirts in your rotation to build a flexible weekday lineup. The maroon sits comfortably with both navy and charcoal bottoms. Check the fit against our slim fit guide—this cut is designed for a closer taper without restricting movement at the shoulders.

Wash in cool water and tumble dry low to prevent any shrinkage; the tighter weave resists wrinkles better than lighter cottons.
