To wear to work, I typically buy Brooks Brothers non-iron dress shirts. They're expensive (roughly $65-75 per shirt) but they last a long time. I have a couple that I've been wearing for almost 3 years; they're still in great shape and the colors haven't noticeably faded out on them.

I figure I've gotten enough use out of them to rationalize spending so much.

My best shirts are Ralph Lauren and Express. I wouldn't go as far to say they're my favorite brand, but just that they're my favorite shirts.

Same here. I just picked up ten Van Heusen's the other day for $10-$15 each.

Donald Trump, BCBG, and Eagle are very good. You can find them at Macy's for around $20-30 each. They look much more professional and higher quality than the express mx1 shirt. I can't really comment on the brooks brothers ones as I've never wanted to put up $70 for a shirt.

I like the Club Room brand at Macys, they are 100% cotton and not overly expensive. 100% cotton is a must though. Polyester blends are all crap and I hate the way they feel on my skin.

I have about 50+ dress shirts of many different brands. All 100% cotton of course.
Ranges from Canali and Zegna, to Calvin Klein and Tommy.

Same here as well. However, even though they fit "the best," they're still a bit too short :(

For work, its a tossup between Brooks Brothers wrinkle-free and Jos. A Bank "traveller" shirts. I actually like the fit and finish of the Jos. Bank shirts better, but they don't have the colors/patterns that I like.

For going out, Banana and Zara are my faves (though I need to lose a few pounds before the Zara's will look right on me)--some Express shirts are nice too but its a crapshoot with quality; some Express shirts last forever and some fall apart after 2 washes.

Hugo Boss.

But I do have a lot of brooks brothers wrinkle free shirts, I travel a lot for work and you can just take them out of your suitcase and "steam" them in the bathroom
