Shopping for shirts rarely feels like sport, though it can become transactional at pace. Buy one, wear it, crab-walk back for another in roughly the same shade of noncommittal blue. But every now and then - typically around bank holidays, when retailers quietly loosen their pricing ties - a rare and civilised thing happens: someone offers a deal that’s good, not just in the absolute sense, but in the quietly satisfying world of shirts-per-pound. That someone this week is Hawes & Curtis, who have decided to mark the long weekend by slightly undercutting themselves. Their offer? Four shirts (or mercerised polos) for £120, when you use the code WEEKEND20. It’s not life-changing. But for certain mid-week torsos, it helps.
Hawes & Curtis have been around long enough - founded in 1913, apparently - to develop the kind of soft authority that comes from surviving multiple recessions armed only with button cuffs and a firm belief in the Windsor collar. These days their bread and butter is the slightly ambitious dress shirt, the kind worn when you need to remind a room you once had a LinkedIn. Fabric quality is solid for the price bracket. Crisp cotton poplin makes a recurring appearance, and while not luxury-tier, most shirts stand up to regular commuting and occasional red wine deflection.
This weekend, the retailer is offering 20% off everything, with WEEKEND20 also unlocking a handful of curated multi-buy bundles. Here are the headline deals:
These are stackable combinations meant to flatter the mildly risk-averse: the four-for-£120 shirt deal works out to £30 per shirt, which undercuts much of the high street. Especially if what you’re looking for is something more tailored than Zara, less internship-esque than M&S. Shipping is free within the UK for orders over £175. So, technically, if you buy six shirts, you save money and avoid the £4.95 shipping fee. The maths is quietly persuasive.
Hawes & Curtis offers several shirt fits - extra slim, slim, tailored, and classic. As with most British retailers, "slim" is more generous than you think, and "extra slim" isn’t as terrifying as it sounds. Still, sizing can be inconsistent across shirt styles, so a bit of trial and error is par for the course. Fortunately, the returns policy is straightforward: 28 days from receipt, and UK returns by Royal Mail are free. International returns, predictably, are your financial burden.
The mercerised polos - the other side of the bundle deal - are... fine. Mercerisation gives the cotton a slight sheen and a firmer texture, which sounds better than it often looks, especially in certain shades of teal. But in reliable greys, navies, and charcoal, they pull together a pre-Zoom look with minimum effort. Best worn when pretending to have been out all morning. Again, not transcendent, but priced to forgive a few sartorial sins.
While it’s tempting to load up your cart on sheer spreadsheet logic, not every discounted item calls for a home in your wardrobe. Suits, for example, are part of the 20% off promotion, but unless you’ve previously tried one for fit and fall, it’s a gamble under fluorescent lighting. The marketing copy talks about "smart suiting for when you need to make a statement", but the statement may be "this was on sale", depending on your tailoring expectations.
That said, their linen separates and lightweight suits are better than average for the price. Be advised: most arrive folded, not hung, so an iron - and a moment of patience - will be part of the deal.
Hawes & Curtis’s Bank Holiday offer is the kind of dignified promotion that doesn’t scream, doesn’t beg, and doesn’t try to convince you your life will change because it won’t. But what it does do - neatly, quietly - is give you the chance to refresh some wardrobe staples without feeling taken for a ride. The £120-for-four deal is strong, the quality is good enough for proper grown-up clothing (read: not synthetic), and the returns process doesn’t feel weaponised.
If you're seeking peacocking linen trousers or avant-garde collars, look elsewhere. But if you're in the market for shirts that tuck in cleanly, keep their structure after a wash, and don’t provoke HR, this is - quietly - a sensible moment to act.
