Normal Placket Dress Shirts

Normal placket men’s dress shirt are the traditional dress shirt you can find at any retail store. Not many dress shirts have French plackets, and there are hardly any covered placket dress shirts ever.

But the placket on a shirt is the long vertical strip of fabric where your buttons are. A normal placket is independently sewn onto the shirt rather than being a part of the dress shirt from the start. The normal placket has stitching on both sides of the placket.

The placket isn’t something you should fuss about, especially if you are only town between a French placket and a normal placket since it really won’t make a big different to your dress shirt’s style. But do note that you can’t have a contrast placket on a French placket because with French placket dress shirts, the placket is not an independent piece that can be customized like the normal placket.

One other interesting option for your dress shirt’s placket is the covered placket, which is a very interesting and unique look for bespoke dress shirts.

Co-create your own custom men’s dress shirts with your preferred placket type in mind.
