I'm looking for advice regarding what collar size to chose for T.M lewin. I usually wear a european size 40 which I believe equals 15 . 3/4 inches.
The question is then do I order a 16 inch collar or a 15.5 inch collar. I've read posts saying the Lewins shrink a bit, thereby suggesting I go for the 16 inch but I've seen other posters deny any shrinkage. I plan to wash my shirts in 40 degrees celcius and dry them gently on a hanger afterwards.
Also is the difference in chest measurements large between the 16 and the 15.5? I'm a pretty tall and slim guy at 1.90 cm and 80 kg so I would prefer a smaller chest measurement but I think I still need the 35 inch sleeves of the standard 16/35, or perhaps I should move up to the 15/36
