BB mainline is rather crappy even though I do have some of their extra slim fit shirts. I don't know about Tyrwhitt.
I would pay a little more and go for the BB luxury line shirts (in slim fit and then dart them). A much better shirt and when you catch them on sale, they go for about $60. Once you have a few of those, the regular line BB will sit in the back of your closet.

If they don't have the size/color that you want, check back in a week.

I like Tyrwhitt much better than BB.... better fit, better designs, better collars (spread or cutaway), no chest pocket, choice of french or button cuff. Had a few BB shirts but sold them in favor of the CT shirts.Originally Posted by bjornb17
This is why I recommend BB luxury line. More options and NO POCKET

Just as an FYI, you can actually get CT shirts shipped for about $35/each by using the below link (through 6/15/11):
www.ctshirts.com/JOSH
That makes then $39.50 each.
Put two shirts in cart, and then use the code "STCA" to take $20 off $50.
So you're really comparing a $35 CT shirt to a $50 BB shirt.

Well, not exactly comparing a $35 CT to a $50 BB shirt.
The link I posted above has mainline BB at $39.75 and luxury (which leaves ML in the dust) at $67.50. Take an additional 15-25% off due to their montly sales and ML is $30 and luxury is about $50.
