The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts - Page 130

This is my size too. I am yet to find the right fit for a 6'1" build with 35" length arms. My main problem is the shoulders. They are usually too wide.

The waist fits well on me, but that may mean nothing to you. Shirts are one of the most personalized pieces of clothing to form a good fit.

If you're near a BB store (not factory), go in for a fitting. If not, order a $40 ESF shirts from their website. They have a great return policy, but you'll have to eat the shipping costs.

Is linen slim fit shirt acceptable? Or is linen shirt ideally a loose fit?

No and yes, in my experience. It should be looser, but that one was way too loose for me. Unfortunately most linen OTR shirts are.

I just ordered two of their 100's slim fit shirt, 14.5/33 (buy one get one free), I'm 5-7ish and around 120 and they are not really slim fitted at all. Just cut in enough that I can wear it with out being able to hangglide in them like other shirts. However, if you are a bigger size and and can order down, might work out for you. I know people who the shirts look good on. Quality is ok tho, and lots of sleeve lengths and collar options.
You can try this first tho, its a great deal - their oxfords for $20 a piece, up to four of them and free monogramming.

Is it only in white?

Believe so.

I'm 6'1 165lbs and wear a 15.5/35. I just picked up 4 Charles Tyrwhitt slim fit shirts, and they are pretty slim (I can't compare to BB ESF because the BB I've been to didn't have them). The shoulders are very narrow - more narrow than I expected, but I'm happy with them. I have about half a dozen PF shirts that I've picked up on clearance or during big sales. Their slim fit is good. Quality is okay - obviously nothing like the RLBL shirts or anything, but they hold up well. I have a few shirts that are already 5 years old without signs of wearing.

You should watch out for the material, some shirts will even turn out to be slimmer than you thought.

Hi, I have a question about the fit of Aquascutum slim fits. Comparable to Express/UC of Benetton/Hugo Boss Black or other mall brands, how does the Aquascutum slim fits squeeze in between those brands and etc.?

The Nordstrom 'Athletic' Fit shirts fit me perfectly. First OTR slim fit I've not taken to the tailor for blousing around the waist.
16 34/35. Quality is very good for $50.

Has anyone tried the Costcos Kirkland slim fit shirts?

What other shirts can you compare it to?

I should've posted 'trim' fit. Sorry. For under $50, The Lauren Slim Fit are also pretty good OTR. Usually $40 at Macy's. I buy a lot of clothes for the variety, so these work well. Other than that, I have to get everything tailored.

I'm 5'9" 160lbs, 15 1/2-neck, 41inch-chest, 28inch-waist, athletic build. Tried the BB ESF and overall its a decent fit around the shoulders with sleeves not being overly baggy. However, would still need to get the shirt darted to take the waist in. I personally wouldn't pay full price but definitely worth considering if your able to find a particular shirt you like on clearance.
