Charles Tyrwhitt - Yay or Nay? - Page 2

I really enjoy CT shirts. They are basically my go-to shirts now, mainly since the styling is much more refined and the workmanship is much better than anything you'll find anywhere at anything near the price. I've paid as little as $35 for CT shirts, and I very much prefer them to BB shirts that are much more expensive.

I especially like the choice of button or french cuff, cutaway or spread collar, angled split yoke, and most importantly, no pockets. Also, the high button makes the collar lay nicely with the first button open.

Customer service is excellent as well.

I've got a few with no complaints.

Harvie and Hudson is another brand you might consider. I prefer them to CT.

I made my last order on the .com site rather than the .co.uk site hoping it would be faster. Delivery time was about ten days and the postmark was from Belgium!!

I live in the US, they ship from UK. You will see the customs stamp on them when it arrives. Their shipping has typically been 2 weeks for me (they say 10 working days), but my last 2 orders somehow arrived in about 5 days.

Where are you?

CT has 2 stores in NYC if you really need one of their shirts.

Forgive the ignorant question, but why is "fused" important? Longer shirt life?

I take it that TM Lewin and Harvie & Hudson are not as mass market (cheaply made) as CT. Well, I ordered 3 CT shirts last week from their summer online sale. All slim fit, wrinkle-free - so I hope they at fit better than some have said here on the forum.
