Rookie question here:
I can't find a business casual shirt that fits me well. I'm on a small budget, and I typically wear casual J Crew or Banana Republic shirts to work with chinos or corduroys. I'm 5'11, 175 lbs and have a 32 waist, so I'm relatively slim, but my shoulders are really wide. If I get slim fit shirts in size large, they look okay through the waist, but are tight as hell in the shoulders (and get untucked easily when I reach for anything). If I get a regular fit shirt, they look ridiculously billowy throughout the waist.
Do I need to be getting regular fit shirts and having them tailored? Or do I need to look for some brand that can fit my odd shape well?
