yeah, the fabrics are generally a bit finer, the assembly maybe a bit better, and some of the touches, like the buttons, are higher quality.

Can anyone comment on their Business Casual shirts?

Additionally, how are there collars? Do they stand up better, the same, or worse than BB collars? Do they stand up well without a tie under a blazer?

Thanks

I just found out that their business casual shirts do not have collar stays, a bit of a let down. 

 

Can anyone comment on the collars of CT shirts? Do they stand up more, less, or the same as BB shirts?

 

Thanks again

I'm a fan of their shirts. I find the collars stiff but comfortable and each comes with brass collar stays.

I know others disagree but I like their non-irons and find they look almost as good at the end of the day as they did in the beginning.

 

UPDATE - Sorry, just realized you asked about their business casual shirts. I have no experience with those . . .

I was interested in this as well. I noticed they have a pair of burgundy double monks on sale for $250. I called but the customer service didn't know who made them. Do you happen to know if these are loakes?

Has anyone bought CT classic fit polo shirts, like this one:

 

http://www.ctshirts.com/men%27s-casualwear/men%27s-polo-shirts/White-signature-polo-shirt?q=usddefault||JH002WHT|||||||||||||

 

Would a size medium of that polo shirt fit just right someone who's usually 15.5 collar, 33 sleeves with CT slim/extra slim dress shirts?

 

Thanks in advance.

A medium is usually sized on a 15.5 - 16 collar. It should be fine.

The BC shirts come with brass collar stays.
