Description

• Border: loom-woven blue dhaka framing the band collar, the straight offset placket, both cuffs and the full hem

• Closure: gold ball buttons on fabric loops down the placket

• Fabric: cream shirting cotton, light and crisp

• Silhouette: regular fit, straight hem worn outside the trousers, long sleeves

Most daura shirts close on a curve, the front panel sweeping across the chest to the side. This one closes on a straight line set off to the right of centre, the way a daura is cut when it is made to be worn as a shirt rather than under a coat, and the dhaka border follows that line from the collar to the hem. It is the daura in its simplest form: cream cloth, one blue border, gold buttons, and nothing else.

The body is a plain-woven shirting cotton with a dry, crisp hand, and the border is dhaka woven on the loom, its stepped peaks built up thread by thread in blue and grey, so the pattern stands slightly proud of the cream ground. The border runs around the band collar, down the offset placket, around both cuffs and along the whole hem, which gives the shirt a frame that a wrap daura does not have. Four gold ball buttons sit on fabric loops along the placket. Each shirt is cut only after you order and checked for fit, finishing and cultural accuracy before it ships. Each one is tailor-made to your measurements — after ordering, Bhutib contacts you directly to confirm fit and preferences.

Wear it with suruwal trousers and a dhaka topi for Dashain, a wedding or a puja, or over dark trousers on an ordinary day; it stands beside the wrap-front daura shirt with its curved dhaka border and the rest of what Nepali men wear for Dashain and weddings. Each shirt is stitched for Bhutib in the Eastern Himalayan hills.

Questions buyers ask

How is it different from the wrap daura shirt? The wrap daura closes along a curve that crosses the chest; this one closes on a straight offset placket, and its border also runs along the hem. Both are daura shirts, cut to be worn without a coat.

Is the dhaka border woven or printed? Woven on the loom. Turn a cuff and the floating threads of the pattern are visible on the inside.

Can I wear it with a suruwal? Yes. With suruwal trousers and a topi it is a complete daura suruwal for a wedding or Dashain; with plain trousers it is a shirt.

Questions people actually ask

Will it fit if I’ve never been measured?

Yes. Choose your usual size. Before we cut, we message you on WhatsApp for two numbers — your chest or bust at the fullest part, and your height — and adjust the pattern to you. A tape and two minutes is all it takes.

What if it doesn’t fit when it arrives?

We alter it free. Courier it back to us in Kalimpong (that leg is on you); we adjust it and pay the courier back to you. Or take it to a tailor near you — every piece is cut with margin for a small local adjustment.

Is there anything to pay on top of the price?

No. Delivery is free across India and the price includes tax, so the amount you see is the amount you pay. Two exceptions, both quoted before you order: a size above 4XL carries a small surcharge for the extra cloth, and a personal customisation beyond a standard size is confirmed with a 10% advance on the order; the rest is paid on delivery, as usual.

Can I cancel, or change the size or colour?

Before we cut, yes — tell us on WhatsApp and nothing is lost. After cutting, the piece is made to your measurements and cannot go back into stock; if it does not fit, we alter it free.

I’m buying for someone I can’t measure — what do I do?

Choose their usual size and add their WhatsApp number in the order notes. We confirm the rest with them, or with you, before we cut.

Need a size we do not list?

We cut it. Smaller than the smallest size shown, larger than the largest, and for babies and children too. Message us the measurements on WhatsApp; for a child we need chest, shoulder-to-foot length and sleeve length. Above 4XL the extra cloth carries a small surcharge, quoted before you pay.

Can it come faster?

Sometimes. Tell us your date before you order and, if a faster courier reaches your pincode, we quote the difference. Either way, tell us the date and we cut yours first.

Will it reach me before my date?

Allow 6–9 working days from the day you confirm your measurements, anywhere in India, a little longer for remote pincodes. Tell us the date in the order notes or on WhatsApp and we plan around it.

Do you ship outside India?

Not through this website yet; it ships within India only. Message us on WhatsApp and we will arrange it, or order from our Etsy shop, which ships worldwide with free shipping.

Is the colour the same as the photo?

The photos are of the actual cloth in daylight; screens differ a little. To be sure, ask us on WhatsApp for a photo of the cloth before we cut.
