So I finally started expanding my wardrobe and venturing out of the Express dress shirts. I've always worn a size small or medium but the collars could never be buttoned without choking me.
Now that I found other brands that have separate measurements, mainly collar width and sleeve length. I'm not a fat dude at 5'9 and 155 lbs with a athletic build. My neck measures out to be a comfortable 16.5", so I should go up to a 17" collar width right?
I tried on a few "slim fitting" shirts with a 17" collar and it felt like I was wearing a size XL. Wtf.
I assume I will need to get most off the shelf shirts tailored then. So I mainly will need to buy shirts with correct collar and shoulder width, and everything else can be altered?
Balloon arms can be altered easily as well?
Thanks!
