Product Insights
Blue Floral Shirt Slim Fit by Le 31 is a 125 CAD, in-stock, blue-only house-exclusive shirt in seven collar sizes from 145 to 175 at flat pricing, where the number is the neck measurement in half steps (145=14.5 inches to 175=17.5 inches) and sizing should follow the neck, stepping up a half if a tie is knotted or the measurement falls between sizes; the core proposition is a sophisticated, slightly avant-garde Canadian-designed print shirt in a rigid 100% cotton weave that breathes and wears cool, sits flat through the buttoned chest with the shoulder seam at the natural shoulder edge, and reads as a subtle floral under a blazer or overshirt at collar, cuffs and a chest band. The tradeoff is a no-stretch slim cut: broader shoulders or a fuller chest pull across the back and bind at the armholes and upper back, and while Le 31 lists tops true to size, buyers report the line varies by style; the cotton creases after most washes, needs ironing, can shrink a size 15 neck to 14.5 under warm or hot laundering, and the surface-printed floral may crack or fade at crease points, so care is cold machine wash at or under 30°C/86°F, inside out, air dry, and no fabric softener to protect fit and print.
Verified claims
- Shoulder seam
- Shoulder seam lands at the natural shoulder edge; inside means too small, drooping too large.
- Fit
- Cut with fitted shoulders and narrow sleeves, the slim fit should button closed with the chest lying flat and no pull; the collar size sets the neck only, not how the torso fits.
- Athletic build
- Broader shoulders or a fuller chest pull across the back in this rigid cut.
- Mobility
- The no-stretch 100% cotton weave sits on a higher armhole and binds at the armholes and upper back, most on broader builds.
- Sizing
- Neck measurements (145=14.5 inches) replace letter sizes; measure your neck for best fit.
- Size decoding
- Size numbers 145 to 175 are collar inches in half steps, from 14.5 up to 17.5.
- Size up guidance
- Sizing uses neck measurements in half-inch steps from 145 (14.5-inch collar) through 175 (17.5-inch collar); measure around the base of the neck and pick the closest, then size up a half step if you plan to wear a tie or measure between sizes.
- Stretch
- The shirt is made from a 100% cotton weave with no elastane or spandex, so it has no stretch or flexibility.
- True to size
- Le 31 lists tops true to size, but buyers report the line varies by style.
- Breathability
- The 100% cotton weave pulls sweat into the fiber and releases it, so the shirt wears cool rather than damp.
- Wrinkle
- Creases after most washes and needs ironing to keep a pressed look.
- Care
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, inside out, air dry, and skip fabric softener to protect the fit and print.
- Styling
- Under a plain blazer or overshirt the all-over watercolor floral print on pale blue shows only at the collar, cuffs and a strip of pattern.
- Colourway
- Blue is the only colourway offered across all seven collar sizes
- Shrinkage risk
- Warm or hot laundering and tumble drying can shrink the cotton enough to make the tailored collar and chest fit tight.
- Print durability
- Surface-printed floral pattern may crack or fade at crease points over time.
- Exclusivity
- Le 31 is Simons' exclusive house label; the cut and print are house-specific
- Design origin
- Designed in Canada covers the pattern, block and colourway, not Canadian sewing
- Brand positioning
- Le 31 is positioned as sophisticated menswear with a touch of avant-garde
- Size availability
- All seven collar sizes 145 to 175 are in stock at once, both ends included.
- Flat pricing
- Every collar size from 145 to 175 is listed at the same 125 CAD.
- Colour options
- Blue is the only colourway across all seven variants, so the choice comes down to collar size.
- Quality consistency
- Quality is mixed: Le 31 is generally regarded as mid-range/entry-level, fine for basics but not built for long-term durability, and buyers report sizing can be inconsistent between pieces, so trying more than one size may be necessary.

Its stretch cotton fabric (50% organic cotton, 47% cotton, 3% spandex) suits shoppers who want a bit of give in a dress shirt, and it is a Le 31 design made exclusively for Simons, designed in Canada. Note that it is offered only in sizes 145-REG, 145-LONG, 150-REG, and 155-LONG in Navy/Midnight Blue, so shoppers outside that range may need another option.[5,6] | Sepia Flowers Shirt Slim Fit: Choose this if you want a slim-fit dress shirt that Simons describes as cut to hug the body tightly with fitted shoulders and narrow sleeves, in 100% cotton.

Mixed quality and fit-dependent experience with Le 31 oxford shirts
Mid range quality. Fits depends on your body type. I have broad shoulders so a medium may be too tight for my back and a large too loose for arms and length.

General quality of Le 31 as Simon's store brand
Le31 is Simons store brand. It's pretty good quality in general. My BF buys their polo shirts and shirts and they hold up well after a few years.

Le 31 as fast fashion with slim fit and okay quality
It's a Simon's brand and a lot of it is fast fashion. I haven't been to one in a while, so take this with a grain of salt. The one on rue Sainte-Catherine had things like KJP knock-off bracelets, thin and overly-detailed denim, but they also had a lot of basics - undershirts, socks, underwear. The clothes fit fairly slim - I'm sure there are exact measurements in the online store. They seem to be of okay quality, but the quality-to-price ratio isn't what I'd consider good. Depending on what you're looking for, you'd probably be able to find a better quality, comparably priced item with a bit of shopping around.
