The Washable Tyfold Collar is an exclusive design by RJW Shirts. This collar comes from the vintage range of Cluett, Peabody & Co Inc - the mega collar company of Troy, New York.  Designed in 1902, the Tyfold was released on the American Market in early 1903. The Tyfold design employs the unqie feature of a small cut out at the front for the knot of a bowtie or necktie to sit over. As moderm neckties are quite thick and bulky - it is recommended to use the thinner vintage type neckties or bowties with this collar. The Tyfold measures 2.25" at the centre-back. It sports 1 collar stud hole at the centre-front and 1 stud hole at the centre-back. The left-side of the collar has a Lock Front feature (collar stand extension). This collar is made with Plain White Cotton - but other fabrics are available.

Different cotton fabrics are available for all washable collars - please view our Fabrics page for more information and contact us via email for further help: rjwshirts@hotmail.com
