Hi everyone - new to the forum, so please forgive if I'm boring you.
I've searched the forum and not really found what I'm looking for, so maybe I can get some help with a new thread.
I'm looking to replace my entire collection of work shirts (around 7 or 8) as they are getting old and worn. What I need help with is brands and their respective collections.
I have fairly strict criteria for a shirt and I'm not sure which brands are most likely to fit them.
1) slim fit
2) stretchy - doesn't need massive amounts of stretch, just enough to make the shirt comfortable to wear for long periods
3) breathable - i don't mind being cold, but hate being hot
4) completely opaque - this is probably the hardest one to find. By this I mean that no matter what colour shirt I wear, and no matter how bright a light i'm standing under, I don't want anything under my shirt (ie. a vest/undershirt) to be visible.
Fashion wise I stick to solid neutral/dark colours +/- simple patterns (ie. white/baby blue/pale pink/grey/dark blue/lilac/burgundy/nothing bright). Sleeves would be rolled up, so a different inner cuff pattern would be great, but not necessary. Couple this with black/navy/grey/beige trousers, black/brown belt, black/brown shoes. No blazer/suit.
My current shirts are Olymp - they are stretchy and slim but that's it.
Price around £150 per shirt would be my upper limit.
I live in UK, so need to be able to source them relatively easily.
Does what I'm looking for actually exist?? If so, what brands would you recommend?
Thanks all in advance.
