Basics Slim Fit Cathay Brown Twill Checks shirt

This is a slim fit shirt in 100% cotton with a Cathay Brown base and a subtle check weave—built for the standard workweek and warm months when a lighter layer matters. The cotton sits at around 140 GSM, giving you enough weight to hold structure without feeling heavy in Indian summers or air-conditioned offices. The checks are tight enough to read as understated from a distance, making it a safer choice than solid browns if you're unsure about the colour's versatility.

Pair it with charcoal or navy trousers for meetings, or go casual with light chinos. If you're exploring similar pieces, our full checks collection spans various colour families, while our slim fit range covers different fabrics and patterns.

The slim cut runs true to Basics' sizing norms—no surprises there. Wash in cool water and line-dry to preserve the colour depth; Cathay Brown can shift with high heat.
