Anyway, I just posted this in a new thread, which I shouldn't have. Sorry. I'm somewhat interested in this shirt from yesstyle.com. I've read that their clothes tends to be smaller than the measurements say they they, shrink a lot, etc. Anyway, if I wear a small in brands like Rugby, J. Crew, H&M, etc., would their medium probably fit me well? Also, are there any reasonably-priced alternatives to this shirt from somewhat more reliable sources/labels (I was thinking maybe Fred Perry on sale someplace)? If this is worth copping, any comments on whether the light blue or dark violet check would be easier to pull off? Thanks, wmmk

That shirt seems a little overkill... I think the gingham is just too big.
Definitely look into Fred Perry though, their shirts fit slim.

They look awful, almost two dimensional. That is also one of the nastiest stitching jobs I've seen.

All the pictures on this forum look two dimensional.

The shape of those aren't that bad actually. I'd prefer either no strap or the strap to be thicker but you could always just see how you like it in person or take it off. Normally i hate everything schmoove/swear. Those 2 brands make mostly miserable stuff.

Whatchu getting? I'm gonna email or call and try to get those grey pants tomorrow (if they're open) or monday. I want that caped mac really bad but know i'd never really get to wear it for another year. So so so so pissed those suspender pants aren't in my size. I might pick up a simple obedient sons shirt from those guys too.

I got the Tuesday Jacket and the Ted trousers. I was thinking about the Mac but I have way too many coats already.
