Deep Research
How the comfort fit compares to standard sizing
- A straight cut means there is no waist taper — the shirt drops uniformly from chest to hem, which avoids the pinched midsection of a slim fit and makes it accommodating for a larger belly or for those who move a lot during the day.
- Sold in precise neck sizes from 15 to 18½ (half-inch increments) rather than S/M/L, so the collar closes correctly for a tie or a buttoned-up look — a detail that anchors this as a traditional dress shirt despite the casual comfort fit.
Le 31 brand background and quality
- Le 31 shirts at Simons start from $59 CAD for a basic striped poplin and top out at $150 CAD with this triple-stripe comfort fit, positioning the $150 model at the premium end of the house brand's lineup — the price difference reflects a more elaborate pattern and a roomier comfort cut compared to the standard‑fit offerings at lower price points.
- The shirt is stocked in eight neck sizes from 15 to 18.5 in half-inch increments, a breadth that signals Le 31 invests in precise collar sizing rather than consolidating to a handful of alpha sizes — crucial for a dress shirt where neck fit determines both comfort and the ability to wear a tie properly.
- As a private label, Le 31 is designed for and sold exclusively through Simons department stores — buying this shirt means choosing a design that won't appear at competing retailers, a factor that appeals to those seeking a less ubiquitous, Canadian-curated piece.
- The 'designed in Canada' tag indicates the shirt's pattern and fit were developed by the retailer's in-house team, not sourced from a generic overseas catalog — the resulting comfort fit with its straight cut and generous shoulder and sleeve room is a direct expression of North American priorities for ease of movement over the slim European cuts that dominate the dress shirt market.
Competitive value against similar dress shirts
- Where many sub-$150 dress shirts blend in polyester or spandex for easy-care or stretch — the Brooks Brothers Explorer adds 16% polyester and 3% spandex, Banana Republic's linen-cotton mixes in up to 44% linen — Le 31's specification of 100% cotton speaks to a classic fabric approach that prioritizes natural breathability and a traditional hand-feel over high-tech performance coatings.
- At $150 CAD, Le 31 sits solidly between the aggressive multibuy economics of Charles Tyrwhitt ($75/shirt at 4-for-$299) and the full-retail pricing of heritage labels like Harold ($250), placing it in the center of the dress-shirt market where store brands compete on exclusivity and fit nuance rather than bottom-dollar volume.
- Charles Tyrwhitt cuts a straight, dart-free body that many slim-waisted wearers find billows, and T.M. Lewin uses darted tapers that hug the athletic V-shaped torso; Le 31's comfort fit shares CT's straight-through cut but specifically calls out generous shoulder and sleeve room, making it a purpose-built option for broad-shouldered builds that slim-fit brands underserve.
- Le 31 is an exclusive brand designed in Canada by the retailer Simons, giving this triple-stripe shirt a distinct design origin that separates it from mass-market import labels — for shoppers who value in-house design and regional identity, this offers a point of differentiation from generic dress shirts.
- Unlike the S-XXL letter sizing used by Quince and MUJI, Le 31 offers traditional neck-sizing in half-inch increments from 15 to 18½, providing a more precise fit around the collar and shoulders for those who find standard alpha sizing a poor compromise.
- Brooks Brothers' Explorer Collection triple-stripe dress shirt ($128 US) directly competes on pattern but cuts it in a Supima cotton-polyester-spandex blend with a non-iron finish, making Le 31's 100% cotton weave the purer natural-fiber choice within the same aesthetic — at a similar full-retail price point.

Q&A
1 answered- Is the shirt machine washable, and how much shrinkage can be expected after washing?
- Care instructions are not provided, but since this is 100% cotton, it is likely machine washable. Typical cotton shirts shrink 3–5% after the first wash; washing in cold water and air drying can minimize shrinkage [1].
