I have one CT extra slim shirt. It seems to be somewhere in-between SM slim and SM extra slim. Like others, I suggest starting with SM slim in the same size.

I wear the same size as you for Tywhitt, and typically go with 15.5” slim 35 or 36 sleeves with Spier and Mackay. I find it’s a great fit for me, and I probably wear things a little less form fitting nowadays, and the slim just hits at a nice spot for me.

FW18 green tweed back in the rotation. I see someone selling a 40R slim in the b-s-t thread... that will sell quick.

either/or. I wear a 38R contemporary suit, this is my camel DB in 38R:

and this is my polo coat in 40R:

both are comfortable, slight edge going to the polo coat for range of motion with a jacket underneath. I can wear a suit jacket under the camel DB, it just feels slightly more constricted (if I’m driving or something). I’ve thought about selling this and buying the current one in 40R, butI don’t know that it’s actually worth the hassle.

I do wish they were longer though, by a good 6” or so.
I think the 38R is more flattering. I would not size up.

does S&M ever run promos on custom shirting? I want to order 3 shirts in the near future. I vaguely remember a promo in the past but don't remember the details.

A couple new 3-piece suits just dropped. But no sign of the 2 VBC blazer suits yet.

Take my money, Rick!
