It is pretty common for men to use the bottom of their shirts to crack open a refreshing bottle of beer instead of hunting for an opener; the Criquet Long Sleeve Button Down Shirt ensures that this common occurrence happens without any sartorial casualties. The bottom of the classic white Oxford has been reinforced so that tears and rips are avoidable. This detailed has been dubbed 'The Bendle Sleeve.'
Made out of 100% certified organic cotton, the Criquet Long Sleeve Button Down Shirt is also extremely comfortable to wear. It even boasts an extra deep pocket with a slot for pen and eyeglasses. Although slightly on the expensive side, it does kill two birds with one stone.
