What's the general consensus on S&M dress shirts? Are they a solid value?

Been very happy with pretty much all of mine, the very first ones did feel a little “cheap” in terms of fabric quality compared to the higher end of shirts I own, but got better over time. The only real critique I still have is I find the OCBD’s a little stiffer than I like. But overall great value.

Personally, I would spend a little bit more and get Kamakura, especially after getting the right fit.

Cool, I just ordered one of the extra slim Chambray shirts and was wondering what to expect

I have a bunch. Wearing a poplin right now. Haven't found a better fit combined with collar preference anywhere else. That said, I don't pay over $60 for a shirt. I can't see needing anything else in terms of quality.

In my opinion yes, very solid. Have a bunch from them: poplin, twill, brushed cotton, denim - all very good quality for the money. The fit is great also.

Thanks all, looks like I made a good call trying one out

If you find your fit, I think you won't be disappointed with the quality. Especially when buying them on sale. I have shirts from Kiton, Isaia, Barba, Borrelli, Charvet... but still, wear S&M shirts often and gladly )

I attended my best friend's wedding this past weekend and wore this outfit to the rehearsal dinner. Almost everyone had on navy blazers and gray slacks but I did encounter one or two other gentlemen who had on brown sport coats. I ended up having a robust conversation with one of them about the versatility of brown as a color. The fact that I had so much navy in my outfit made me unintentionally coordinated with the rest of the crowd.

Hey guys!

3rd day of my African-print shirt week with this very special shirt to me, made for my daughter 1st birthday in 2018

Morning. The external pockets on these pants add some interesting lines to this fit.
