Any TM Lewin slim fit pics?

Hi, I'm thinking of picking up some TM Lewin slim fit shirts but when I searched this forum and other boards, there are very mixed reviews regarding fit. The few posts on here discussing fit say that it is very slim, although on other random Google boards the members said TM Lewin shirts are like "tents."

I was wondering if anyone that owns one of the TM Lewin slim fit shirts has any input? Or better yet, does anyone have a fit pic?

Mostly, I'm curious how the fit compares to Hugo slim fit or Brooks Bro extra slim fit lines?

Thanks!

Not nearly as slim as extra slim fit, but slimmer than the BB slim fit. I have no experience with Boss.

They're not BoO or any kind of SW&D slim, if thats what youre looking for.

The material is incredibly underwhelming, though.

They are much slimmer than American brand "slim" shirts and slightly larger than a Barba or J. Sander.

I have a 10" drop and the Lewin shirts work out reasonably slim on me. Not incredibly so, but pretty decent. I'm on the bigger end of the spectrum though, 17" neck. Can't say how the smaller ones are cut.

Thanks for the replies. They were helpful!

I guess I'll hold off on ordering for now. I was tempted b/c of their recent sale and thought it would be good for cheap shirts. For some reason, every time I check out, the price goes up.

BB slim fit is really huge for me (mainly the arms and chest), so if the TM Lewin is anywhere near those it would be too baggy. I guess I'll stick with BB extra slim fit for now. Hugo slim fit seems to fit the best for me OTR but their quality is lacking for the price range.

They are not as slim as you would expect, for me, being 6.25 and rather slender they are a bit loose at waist, more or less ok on the chest. but it is more comfortable to not have them fiting as gloves if you wear them under the suit/sc, not so good if you want to wear them without putting anything over.

Boss slim fit is too slim for me. Constricts my chest, but thats just me. Agree about the quality. I had a JW Norstrom signature shirt altered to fit me. Cost was pretty good as I bought it cheap from the Rack. Nice buttons & fabric.

Have you looked into MTM options?

If you check out in pounds, it'll show you the correct pricing. Tends to be a little cheaper too, depending on the exchange rate and credit card processing fees.
