but to be honest if i were you i'd check out dna groove and buy all my shirts from them,
they are the best in my opinion and will do made to measure.
HACKETT ONE B UT AT 90 POUNDS, MAYBE A FORGETTABOUTIT BUT COLLARS GOOD
AT DEBENHAMS THEVE GOT THIS SHIRT IN A WASTELAND OF ENNUI
ITS 35 NOTES WEAR WITH BLACK LEATHER BOMBER BLACK CHINOS AND LOAKE ROYAL BLUE BROGUES, THERE A COUPLE OF OXFORD SHIRTS AT A GOOD PRICE BUT THATS ABOUT IT, ITS A WASTELAND AS I SAID
A GOOD OXFORD SHIRT FROM RIVER ISLAND ABOUT 20 POUNDSGreen & Jack's Bespoke Shirt (individual measurements) (from £80, greenandjacks.com): Green & Jack's seem to be the affordable face of bespoke shirts.but they can't really be bespoke if they say you can design your own shirt from your office desk, how the fuck is that bespoke, thats made to measure.
From the same price as the Hawes & Curtis shirt, you can choose every last detail of your shirt from the fit to the thickness of your buttons. The online video tutorials on how to measure yourself are easy to follow - and the results are good.
After you have submitted your order, an adviser calls you to talk through all the measurements and clear up any ambiguities and you get your shirt sent to you within 21 days. My only grumble is that the shirt doesn't come with collar stiffeners, only pathetically limp temporary plastic ones. If you're spending this much cash, you really expect a touch more. They offer a perfect-fit guarantee - if you're not happy, they'll do you another one. but not bespoke as they say, before doing this try the m and s its the same stuff man.
Hawes & Curtis Plain White Slim-Fit Men's Twill Office Shirt (15in collar, 35in sleeve) (£79, hawesandcurtis.com): There's a lot to like here. The same textured quality of the TM Lewin effort and this time with a sleeve length that fits. The overall fit is good too - a touch looser than Lewin but still perfectly passable. The fit across the shoulders is particularly good. In terms of the little touches, the stiffeners have a lot more about them compared to Lewin but still fall some way short of Charles Tyrwhitt. The big problem this has is price. It is impossible to justify spending £79 on this when other High Street stores have such generous sales on. But this is another quality contender - if you bide your time, I have no doubt you'll be able to pick this up at a sale price some time very soon.
at the house of fraser has this not bad pink shirt at 120 notes knocked down from 200, its a good buy .TM Lewin White Twill Plain Slim Fit Shirt (15in collar, 34in sleeve) (£27.50, tmlewin.co.uk): The best fitting of all the High Street options on this rundown. The close-fitting body is complemented by a nice hugging fit around the chest, shoulders and upper arms. This is how a slim fit shirt should feel. It looks great too, with the quality textured material. The only problem is you might find yourself hamstrung by ordering options when you buy online. The 15in collar only has 34in sleeve lengths available, which is just too short for me. Another quibble is the cheap and actually quite flimsy plastic collar stiffeners. It doesn't ruin the shirt but it's the little touches that count. That said, this is the best fitting shirt and the cheapest on this rundown, down from a punchy £85. I'll take floppy collar stiffeners for a deal like that.
