The muscle fit works best as a standalone piece during cooler months or as a base layer under open shirts

as these won't have much give once on

The tapered cut works well if you prefer a slimmer silhouette without going full slim-fit

with a tight twill weave that resists wrinkling through a full workday

Pair it with crisp shirts or casual linen for the office
