I probably wouldn't switch over just buttons. I like MyTailor for what it is, and I've received a good number of perfectly fine shirts. I've got a few quibbles here and there, including the buttons, so I'm experimenting here and there with others.

True, I did read what you wrote in the other thread. I hope you find the perfect collar that has eluded you so far, whether with mytailor or another maker.

Ehh....the shirt looks bad. The fabric is so thin, that it's see-through.

The placket doesn't seem to lay flat by the stomach. Are the buttons correctly spaced? The sleeves appear to be a bit baggy from your elbows down to the cuff. They are bunching up and wrinkly excessively. There seems to be excessive fabric in the lower back that makes the shirt bunch up excessively again. Shoulder area might be excessively sloped causing excess material to bunch up behind the neck. If you pull your collar up to remove the bunching, you will see how much extra space is there. I am not an expert at shirts. Maybe I am being too picky for a MTM shirt. Edit: Arghh... I just saw Shirtmaven's response. He already address the shoulders and excess fabric at the waist.
