oxford shirts in Germany
Looking to buy an oxford shirt in Germany generally looking for the archetypical shirt fit wise I would prefer something on the flowier side but not oversized if that makes sense. I would prefer something without visible logos. Generally looking around 50 Euros but might increase that if that is not enough. Also interested in which brands I should be on the lookout for with used clothes, brands that are available here prefered

uniqlo has some regular fit ocbds online (in-store I've only seen slim fit)
C&A's regular fit is nice and relaxed on me without being oversized. Shirts are verrry thin but decent option if you want to buy cheap on sale.
I think I'm looking for smth slightly higher quality
I picked up one from officine generale because they have XXS. The fabric is nice

The downside is that they only have candy stripe in this fabric (which is a great ocbd pattern however)
I've heard good things about Seidensticker, but haven't tried myself

Seidensticker is aight, quality wise like Olymp, Eterna etc. I'd personally get PRL on sale though.
I'm also considering some Gant on sale
someone shared an oversized fit ocbd from uniqlo a couple days ago that looked really nice! tbh i don't really think you'll find anything else for less than 50€ (new) that looks as nice as the ones from uniqlo.
sometimes their shirts also go on sale for as low as 12€ online.
I have a nice ocbd from Gant as well, it's one of the few that only has a small G stitched on the front pocket, instead of their logo.
Yeah I think the one that I was looking at also had not logo on the front
Haven't seen any oversized ones from Uniqlo but I may also need to adjust my budget or go vintage
yeah i recently got the regular fit one from them and do like it https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1131638836485697617/1157312132703072276
The collar on the new ones look really good, certainly more substantial than what most other brand offer in Europe/ Germany.
Yeah maybe I will just go with the regular fit one from Uniqlo in light blue to see if I wear the style often there are a bunch of things I kinda want to spend money on clothes wise atm so saving a bit is nice
I have an old one from Uniqlo and a newer one and the quality has definitely gone down. Still a good shirt for a low price. I haven't been able to find something new and better that is not at least twice more expensive. Vintage stuff like RL or BB on Vinted is better and cheaper though, if you don't mind going vintage
BB = Brooks Brothers right? Did not know they were availble here. In regards to RL I just don't like the logo on shirts
I also wanted to start buying more vintage stuff
Yes, there's lots of brooks brothers on Vinted
ah good to know. I will have to take a look clothes shopping can just be a bit overwhelming
thanks at everyone answering here:)
every brooks brother shirt on their site seems to be non iron weird
Btw I'm sure you already know, but avoid non iron fabrics
yeah that is why I was suprised
Which brands other than gant/bb/rl should I be on the lookout for on German vintage sites
Honestly man I would just get one from Uniqlo for 30 euro, and see if you wear it a lot. If yes, go digging for vintage stuff
on German vinted most of them them are non-iron BB shirts, and tbh there aren't even that many.
Gitman Bro / Gitman Vintage. I got two Gitman Vintage ocbds on Sellpy a while ago.
Ah good to know. I saw mostly non Iron on Brooks Brothers EU as well. Is there any way to tell?
will be on the lookout there as well
Yeah their online store is pretty terrible here in the EU.

might need to turn to my old favorite Uniqlo I guess this is a U shirt. Thanks for your help as you were saying I think we might have simmilar tastes
Charles Tyrwhitt has some as well btw. Forgot to mention them. They are decent.
you can find Drake's ocbd's on vinted or sellpy as well! I think currently there's one for sale for 80€
tempting I do wonder how different they are to the more budget ones
A lot better, like a lot a lot
also one of the very few that are made in the UK.
I tend to not care about where something is made but let's not discuss that
I get that but in what way
yeah, me neither; but still interesting that they are actually made in the UK and not somewhere more common like Portugal / Spain / Romania etc. in Europe.
In every way, design, collar, fabric, construction, buttons
