I am curious.
what sort of fabrics are they in, and what do they charge


The solid white is a cotton royal oxford, the blue with white stripe third from the left is a cotton end on end. I'm not sure about the other two, I think they're just basic super 100s cotton or something like that. Something pretty standard. They're from the Brooks Brothers shirting books, not the Thomas Mason books.

These all ranged in price from between 175 and 225 I think, but I always take advantage of the MTM event trunk shows, which I believe this fall was a 40 percent discount. In the past it's been buy at least three shirts and get 25-30% off, and if you come during the trunk show days there is an additional discount. They always have an event in the fall and an event in the spring.

Do they actually take your measurements? How is their MTM program different from their online make your shirt offering?I'd like to see pictures of shirts worn if you have any.

Yes they take your measurements in the store just like any MTM shirtmaker does. I'll work on the pictures. I'm not sure if every Brooks Brothers store has a MTM specialist, but the big stores provide full MTM service for shirts and tailored clothing. I believe posters have discussed the gentleman at the Madison Ave store who runs their MTM department. I also learned that Brooks Brothers even has a custom tie program. The shirts are made in South Carolina.

Just received a blue chambray shirt made by New England Shirt Company via David Wood in Portland, Maine. I believe it was made specially for David Wood.

This is my first experience with a New England Shirt Company product, and I'm mightily impressed. Beautiful fabric, beefy buttons, nice styling.

That is a great discount. I ordered several shirts through the MTM program several years ago. I think I received one free after ordering 5.
