Charles Tyrwhitt shirts too big?
Does anyone else find their shirts to run large? I noticed there's a ton of fabric across the midsection and underarm even for their extra slim fits

so how does the collar fit?
if its tight, ya you cant really size down
@Shrimp the "right" 15 collar size I for my neck I found it to be pressing against the very bottom of my neck so I sized up by half an inch (15.5)
and that fits fine
in that case I'd go for squilliams advice
The shirt is just too big for you, the shoulder seam is creasing past your shoulder
Yeah I might have to look into other brands @squilliam mentioned like uniqlo
too bad there's not alot of brands that have as comparable prices/deals as CT e.g. 3 for $99
I used to buy shirts too tight in the neck knowing I’d never button them all the way up anyway
But if you plan to wear a tie don’t do this
If you plan on wearing a tie you’ll be wearing a jacket so the shoulder and chest fits are less of an issue
I was hoping to find some versitle ocbd so that I can wear them in the office and occassionally on semi-formal/business casual occasions when a jacket is needed
How often do you need a tie
About 4-5 times a year
Do you really need a versatile shirt then? Or can you have one tie shirt and then another you wear on a more casual basis
That's true
Maybe I should invest in 1-2 tie shirts and look for some casual ones elsewhere
