What do you have the most trouble finding RTW? Why?

[kaxixi]

For me, it's probably winter weight trousers. Some runners up: a navy blazer, comfortable shoes, outerwear, and Phineas Cole on sale.

Most of my troubles stem from this forum. I have developed a better sense of the feature set I want in an item, and the exact item isn't all that likely to show up at a discount.

You?

Too skinny to buy RTW dress shirts.

Dress shirts. 16.5 neck, 37 sleeve.

^^ That's what I thought. How skinny are you?

Dress shirts are sons of bitches

Small neck, relatively large chest, long arms

5'11", 135-140ish, 15.5" neck.

Sheesh. How do they say put it on here? Eat a cheeseburger?

Shirts, 15 neck with 34/35 sleeves. Sweaters too. I usually take a large due to my broad shoulders and chest, but with the skinny neck I end up with huge openings that can't cover my collars.

Shirts, I'm like 5'8" and pretty skinny. 14.5's still fit like tents most of the time.

At 5'6" Most pants and trousers have a rise that's too high. With how great MTM can be done it's tough to even want to bother OTR.

Likewise.

Hardest thing I have finding RTW: any garment more than 60% off.

Basic, plain suits. As in a grey or navy worsted.
