Neapolitan Cuff Shirt

The understated charm of Italian tailoring

Also known as the Portofino cuff or Italian cuff, the Neapolitan cuff is a rare and high-end finish that combines the codes of the single cuff and the French cuff. It is a buttoned single cuff, but fitted with a lapel folded back towards the rear that mimics the shape of a double cuff. This unique construction creates an elegant relief and a sophisticated play of lines at the end of the sleeve, without requiring the use of cufflinks.

The quintessence of Sprezzatura

This cuff perfectly embodies the philosophy of Italian elegance: a refined sophistication that nonetheless appears completely natural and effortless. It brings a subtle touch of originality appreciated by connoisseurs, allowing one to stand out discreetly in a professional environment or at a social event. Its structure offers excellent hold while retaining great suppleness when worn.

Our style tips: how to wear the Neapolitan cuff?

This connoisseur's cuff pairs ideally with pieces inspired by soft tailoring:

• The dressed summer elegance: Wear a Neapolitan cuff shirt in cotton-linen under an unstructured wool natte jacket, with light canvas trousers.
• The bold business style: Pair it with a pinstripe blue suit and tassel loafers for a resolutely transalpine look.
• The styling tip: Wear this model without a jumper to let the unique architecture of the cuff be appreciated, which should remain the centrepiece of the lower half of your silhouette.
