I've been heavily stocking up on dress shirts lately and i found myself wondering what exactly it is that makes a dress shirt "good". I've got shirts from lots of manufaterers in lots of different materials. I've found good fits from companies as vastly different as Brooks Brothers slim-fit, RLPL, RL Rugby, Brioni, Eton, Michael Bastian, Paul Smith. I've also found some great fits from H&M, J. Crew, Morona (the Target Brand) and Hugo Boss. There are a few obvious differences such as perceived material quality (the Eton is as soft as a baby's butt). I guess the question i've arrived at that i thought i'd throw out to discuss is:
Besides fit and material quality, what seperates a $30 shirt from a $300 shirt?
Please note: the purpose of the this post isn't to ***** about shirt prices or argue that a $30 shirt is just as good as a $300 shirt. As i mentioned, i have both and will continue to buy both. Justtrying to further my education and spark some conversation.
thanks!
