Hi everyone,
I hope that there are some style people who live in Tokyo who might be able to throw me a bone.
I recently came to Tokyo for a one year gig, and found some part time work at a job that requires me to own a whole lot more dress shirts than I already do. The only catch is that my proportions are in general larger than much of what Tokyo has to offer. I'm a 17.5 in neck, 35 in. sleeve (that's about 44-45 cm neck, 88 cm sleeve). This is just past the largest size most stores offer, both online and in brick and mortar. I'm even *just* out of range for Brooks Brothers here!
I'm trying to find some reasonably priced (though I can understand if this isn't possible--this is Tokyo after all) dress shirts that would fit my size. Does anyone have any ideas on where to look?
On a side note, my sizes are just right for Uniqlo's standard XL size dress shirts. Except that they're slightly too long, and everything looks billowy. I'm hoping to keep this as a last resort, but if I end up having to just get Uniqlo shirts hemmed, can anyone recommend a reasonable tailor in the Setagaya area (from Shinjuku back on the Odakyu line, or on JR Yamanote)?
Thanks so much in advance!
