So, this is probably over analysis on my part, i.e has an easy or obvious solution,but I have been looking to buy more dress shirts.
Either from Brooks Brothers, Charles Tyrwhitt, T.M. Lewin, or Harvey Hudson. I am looking to spend around $200 for 3 shirts, about $67 per shirt. I take a 36 1/5 35.
In my ideal world I would love to get a slim fit, single cuff, spread or British spread/cutaway, 100% cotton, Plain Blue or light Blue, White, Blue White Striped, an end on end, maybe a grid pattern as well.
That being said I am absolutely willing to change a bit, but to get some of these pricing deals I need to buy all from the same place. It seems color or size becomes a significant issue. Cuff is near impossible, so I am looking at both double and single cuff. I am building the foundations of my wardrobe now, so I would like to try to stick with the colors or close to them, size is important it needs to fit. I am wondering maybe there is alternative shop to look, considering these do not seem to have exactly what I am looking for? Maybe I need to get it made, even if it is done in china etc.
What would you recommend? Shirt or color substitutions? Different places to buy? MTM or bespoke? Also, I am in Boston if that impacts decisions, options, or suggestions.
