OT? How come on a lot of men's shuirts, the
button holes are oriented vertically except for the
bottom one, which is horizontal?


I have no idea. My Cutter & Bucks do but the Van
Heusens and L L Beans don't.


One reason for the bottom button hole to be horizontal is when shirts
are tucked in, the bottom button won't come open from the tension and
the shirt is less likely to ride up.


That, and the tension of the fabric from a big gut ;-)
