fitted shirts

brooks brothers.

they have an annual sale coming up... 3 shirts for 149$... thats an absolute steal for awesome shirts
 
Fitted dress shirts?

I get Stanford brand, wrinkle free from JcPenny's.

Can usually catch a sale for about $15 each.

Looks nice, fits nice and isn't stupid expensive.

I have better things to spend my money on 😛

their slim fits are still a little big. i know zara does the fit well, but they dont have a huge selection.
 
Downtown LA baby! Garment district, 50 bucks/shirt, Canadian ones using 100% egyptian cotton w00t


Or Off Saks, also quite good; 50-80 for $150++ shirts

Wearing one right now. They aren't bad - the fit is really good, but I am sure quality isn't exactly up to brooks brothers. I just wish they came in more styles and colors. Last I went to JCP there was only 1 table of them in assorted blues. They had plenty other shirts, just not "fitted".
 
Brooks Brothers, Johnston and Murphy, or Jos. A Bank depending on what I need specifically and who's having the sale. To be honest, I don't often enjoy spending 100-300 bucks on a shirt. Though having a few for certain occasions is nice. 😉

Honestly? For "cheaper" shirts I just go to Express, I like the selection of colors and price - can spend like 20 bucks for a nice shirt on sale. They may not be "fitted" but heck, an XL from express fits me well enough for most occasions. Shopping at places like Penny's/Macy's is just a waste of time.. the selection of shirts in 17.5 37-38 is just abysmal.

Zara costs more, and dont have variety of sizes or specific length sleeves

I'm really, really slim, (5'10, 145 nominally (though 150+ currently)), and between BB, Jos A Bank, Express, Nordstroms, BB absolutely fit the best. (express comes 2nd. JaB is worst)

That's not the only reason why I wear them, though... it's their superb non-iron treatment. Express looks 4 years old after 1 wash. BB looks like it came straight off the rack, day after day

That's my big point about spending more on a few shirts too. I notice the same thing with my Express shirts, they age quickly when washed. So I pretty much keep my Express shirts for hitting the bars/clubs/etc.. and BB/JaB stuff for business. Sometimes quality is worth the price. (I happen not to mind spending a lot on clothing every once and awhile for well fitting long lasting stuff)

I'm with you. I have a bunch of cheaper clothes that are compromised in 1 way or another. Now I get stuff that cost more, but I use all of the time because theyre higher quality.

In that respect, I would have SAVED money buying the expensive stuff in the first place.

It's all about the fit. I have a thick neck, thickish upperbody and lats and a small waist. Their shirts are really comfy and the ones that I get are cut well to my size. I can occasionally get cheaper shirts that fit well also. But the quality isn't the same after 10 or so washs. You can tell it is more faded.

I have a few nice DKNY and TH shirts.

I'm not too fussed. As long as it is comfy, cut well and fits I'll have a go.

Use to be Gap, but screw them. Their selection stinks now.

Gotta check out a new stre I recently found: A short man's world... I almost cried.:heart:
 
All of my fitted shirts are from Banana Republic.

It's not that I necessarily love their shirts...but it's one of the few places to buy nice, modern cut shirts in Alaska.
 
TJ Maxx, Macys, JC Penney. I try to buy dress shirts when they are sale for $20-$25. I have better things to spend my money on than $50 shirts 🙂
 
i agree that zara shirts fits nicely, but the sleeves are a little too long, so i may have to get then shortened. it sounds like banana republic would be a good place to try in addition to zara's.

zara's shirt qualities are of dubious nature though, i would much prefer my charles tyrwhitts, but they do not come in fitted...
 
I have BR slim shirts. the quality and feel is only so-so.. fit not that great either.

If you want CT shirts, there's Thomas Pink who is also on Jermyn St and they make slim cuts
