Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Palermo Slim Fit Single Cuff Shirt is a sophisticated choice for professionals who require a sharp, contemporary look without sacrificing the comfort of high-quality natural fibres. This garment is constructed from 100% superfine cotton, offering a refined feel and a clean, crisp appearance that stands up to the rigours of the working day. As part of Brook Taverner's premium cotton collection, it represents a commitment to excellence in corporate tailoring.
Key Features
Superfine 100% Cotton: This lightweight fabric provides exceptional breathability and a smooth handle, ensuring you remain comfortable in demanding office environments.
Slim Fit Design: The tailored cut offers a modern, streamlined silhouette that fits closer to the body, providing a sharp and professional appearance.
Taped Seams: This technical detail ensures the shirt maintains its shape and crisp lines after laundering, preventing the puckering often found in lesser garments.
Removable Metal Collar Stiffeners: Unlike plastic alternatives, these durable metal stiffeners ensure your collar remains perfectly shaped and prevents it from curling over time.
Complementary Silk Cuff Knots: These provide an elegant finishing touch, allowing the shirt to be worn with distinction from the moment it arrives.
Design & Performance
The Palermo shirt is engineered for durability and performance. The use of a herringbone weave (H/B) adds a subtle texture and depth to the fabric, which distinguishes it from standard plain-weave shirts. The lightweight nature of the superfine cotton makes it an ideal choice for year-round wear, providing a cooling effect in the summer while layering efficiently under a suit jacket in the winter.
Performance is further enhanced by the inclusion of taped seams. This is a hallmark of high-end manufacturing, ensuring that the garment retains its professional finish even after repeated wear and industrial laundering. The combination of premium materials and robust construction techniques makes this shirt a reliable staple for any professional wardrobe.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
For a garment of this calibre, we highly recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team, with heritage dating back to 1976, can apply your company logo or staff names with precision to the chest or cuff. Embroidery provides a permanent, high-quality finish that aligns perfectly with the premium feel of the superfine cotton.
While embroidery is the standard for corporate shirts, this item also supports high-definition print. This is particularly useful for larger, bold branding required for promotional events. Regardless of the method chosen, our in-house experts ensure that the customisation process respects the integrity of the fabric, maintaining the professional appearance of your team.
Use Cases
The Palermo shirt is perfectly suited for corporate office environments, legal and financial sectors, and front-of-house hospitality roles. Its slim-fit design makes it an excellent choice for individuals who prefer a modern, tailored aesthetic that pairs well with slim-fit trousers and blazers.

Practical Advice
As this is a slim-fit garment, it is designed to sit closer to the body. We recommend checking your measurements carefully, particularly across the chest and waist, to ensure a comfortable fit. If you prefer a more generous cut for greater range of movement, you may wish to consider a regular-fit alternative.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and premium appearance of your Palermo shirt, it is essential to follow the care instructions provided. Proper maintenance ensures that the superfine cotton remains soft and the taped seams stay flat for the life of the garment.
This shirt is machine washable. We recommend a domestic wash on a standard cycle to effectively remove oils and dirt without causing excessive stress to the cotton fibres. Avoid using bleach, as this will weaken the natural fibres and cause the herringbone pattern to lose its crispness and colour.
When ironing, please remove the metal collar stiffeners. This prevents the stiffeners from marking the fabric and ensures you can achieve a perfectly flat, professional finish. For the best results, iron the shirt while it is still slightly damp.
