Hey guys, Im relatively new to this site. I have been getting a lot of excellent advice on where to shop and what to look for. Im from Canada so we have to pay a lot more then you guys are used to. I visit the states a lot and do most of my shopping at TJ Maxx, Marshalls & Kaufmans.
I need some bigger sizes 17.5/18 neck size. Im not rich like some of u guys, but Im looking to spend below $80. Preferabley in the $30-$50 range. TO be honest the average shirt price I have bought are in the $15-$30 range. I have been able to get a lot awesome deals in the states, but I see that there are some awesome place to shop that I have never been to, and would like some advice, and what to expect if I went to these stores below:
Filenes basement
Loehmanns
Century 21
Sym's
Anywhere else you guys know of swith similar deals, or styles. Here are some examples of what Im looking for.

Once again I have never been to these stores before, I would appreciate if you guys could tell me in detal what I could expect to see at any of these stores. It doesn't have to be Armani because thats more high end. I keep seeing stuff about Zegna, Ike Behar, etc. Do they have nice desinger shirts avaliable all the time. Can you give me some examples of what you guys see on a particular trip. Are the designs great? How is the selection in the 17.5-18 inch neck sizes. I dont really where suits to work, Im just looking for some dress shirts and maybe some ties.
I dont have any Italian stuff yet. I have the typical PVH stuff-CK, Kenneth Cole, G.Beene, Izod, Nautica, Van Huessen, & Claibone & Pierre Carden. I already have a lot of colured shirts, Im looking to add some pinstripped shirts to my wardrobe. Can you tell in particular the kind of prices and what to expect on an average trip to any of these stores. I have found Marshals/TJ Maxx seem to have better stock around Mid January to early February-after all that christmas season shopping is over. Is there a particular time of the year thats good to visit in terms of inventory for these higher end stores? I see that some of you guys have been really nice and really helpful. I would appreciate it if you guys could show a Canadian some of your great American hospitality that I have experienced with all my trips down south. I shop mostly in Buffalo, Erie-PA, Cleveland Ohio, have been to Boston, thinking of visiting NYC/NJ or Chicago again. My family will be hitting up LA for the July Fourth weekend. Any advice guys? Excellent website, really helpful stuff here.
