So, I have been told that I have an odd Neck Size / Arm Length Combination. I've recently lost around 30 pounds and am now 178 lbs, standing 6'3". As I don't wear a suit everyday for work, none of my dress clothes fit anymore. I went to Brooks Brothers for a new white shirt and I wanted to try a slimmer style shirt (I have been so sick of the "muffin-top" look from all of my shirts...always so much extra fabric!!!) and after taking my measurements, the gentleman informed me that the Regent style (their slim fit) didn't come in my measurements. I am a 14.5/15" neck and a 36" arm.
What do I do here? I spent a while at Macy's and was getting the same results. Pink, Ralph Lauren, everyone seems to not carry a shirt in that size. Am I forced to get something made custom? Brooks Brothers is $160 for a custom shirt and I'm nervous after putting in everything on their site, I may get something I end up not liking and is non returnable. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Oh - and 1 side question (same topic I guess) - can one get a suit re sized? Since losing weight, my suit pants are held up only by my belt and the jacket looks ridiculous. I was seeing mixed results when scouring the web on this topic.
THANK YOU!
