It’s the Goldilocks of white long-sleeve shirts, meaning it works equally well as a base layer under blazers as it does a polished top worn solo.

I put five white long-sleeve shirts to the test—from cropped styles to boxy fits, these are the ones worth the money from Leset, Donni, and more.

My review: The perfect white long-sleeve shirt does exist, and it is, in fact, this ribbed one from Banana Republic.

For those that dare to double shirt, applying the same principle to long- and short-sleeve button up shirts can launch you into the upper style echelons.
