Yup. Best slim shirts I've found.



That 100% used to be me. However, then as i continued lifting it kind of just wasn't working anymore. I was in the 16 1/2 34 sizing in slim fit or extra slim fit and it fit fine everywhere except my chest/shoulders where it didn't really fit at al.

I just bought some new blazers/sport coats that are 46'' so I can't get away with them anymore. I loved them and the prices too

Tyrwhit or Proper Cloth or similar is what you're looking for

I'm a 17.5/18 neck and still buy slim fit. Brooks Brothers, etc. should be fine. I have a number of WRX dress shirts that are stretchy and nice.

Beware of ordering slim fit from any overseas brands, like Charles Tyrwhitt. Their slim fits are Euro slim fits; I couldn't even get my arm halfway down a sleeve.

Brooks Brothers all seemed like garbage bags to me, even slim fit. Tyrwhitt are a lot better at a fraction of the price. Even if you misfire on which fit to go with while you try some different ones, it doesn't cost you much.

I bought some BB shirts a couple years ago when they mailed me some ridiculous promotion (like 100 bucks off 100 or something). Not good.

The outlets, like most, are selling completely different products so I assume they're far worse. Outlook seems pretty bleak to me post-bankruptcy/purchase.

My Brooks Brothers would tailor them for me. But I would buy my suits there also. I’m a 46 long going into about a 35 waist.

Always had to get suits cut up.

To clarify, my BB was a retail location, not an outlet.

Every size imaginable and I feel like a very good quality at the price. Shop their (frequent) sales. I’m the opposite of Pencilneck, finding a 19” collar without the shirt being a tent to sleep 4 was a challenge.


I'm not a slim fit. I have purchased a number of shirts from Charles Tyrwhitt, I am beyond pleased with them. These are great shirts, and I have had them tailor sleeve lengths for me, as well as trousers. Recommend highly.

Baw fit. You’d fit in well at LSU sporting events.

Outside of getting shirts tailored


I went to Indochino in New Orleans to get custom fitted for a suit and dress shirts, and the dress shirts weren't as bas as I thought. $139 and they run a lot of sales. Make an appointment to get measured and try it out. Mines came out damn near perfect.
