Same. I just want something which fits and is comfortable. Maybe because I am smaller sized so have to tailor to get a nice fit. OTR for me usually fit nicely everywhere but the back will be very airy.

 

I only have 10 shirts. Some whites, blue and the rest all pastel colors.

 

I find more important to have shoes though. Try not to wear the same shoe more than once a week so that the leather have time to rest. See many people with many shirts but wearing the same shoes everyday.

 

We are not Marcos.

Yes Cheryl, but xmm??? She aged already... Used to look better.

At her prime, average or below nia to me.

Luckily I'm not.......'cos I'm either wearing my work shoes or my safety boots.........

I mean go there and see look the type of cloth and material they have lo. You mean can tailor made one shirt only?

 

No lah, that's not what I meant. I'm just saying that if you go to the tailor the first time, wouldn't it be better to just tailor one shirt first. Just to see if the cutting suits you. Imagine tailoring a few shirts at the first instance, and if you find that the cutting isn't suitable, it's like wasting $$

If you have a typical asian build which i think you do, the cutting and styles of their clothes are not for you. Of course am not stopping you to buy.

I stopped buying off-rack shirt for some time. For tailored shirt, i could embroiled my name in chinese character on cuff.

You have 4 pairs of leather shoes?! Lol, seems like quite a few of us here have many working wear and shoes. Thought usually guys will not plurge so much on their shirts and shoes, just buy a few will do.

 

Like my friends only have 5 shirts and they will rotate wear back the same shirts every week?!

huh? bro .. i got about 40-50 le (and i think quite standard for finance industry right...?) cant meet client wearing same shirt ma .. later they think my boss dont pay me ah ... hahaha ... white alone i got 5 or 6 different cut lol ...

Depends on your work scope and industry. I agree if you need to meet client, you need to be more presentable and should have a wide variety of shirts, pants and shoes. Sometimes not very good if you always seen wearing the same shirt/pants.

 

Even if you are not required to meet client. If you are in industry like banking/finance or work in shenton way area, usually people will tend to dress to kill and have many different pattern of office wear to work.

I made mine from Mdm Neo at Defu lane, price comparable to Grand city. Return there a few times already, waiting time is quick. Things I like is that alot of fabrics to choose from plus I can also make my pants there. Cutting is good for me. Contact is 82226856.

Ard 50 plus to 60 plus depending on fabrics. Made more than 10 shirts from there, overall pleased with it

[Lethalstrike]

Yes Cheryl, but xmm??? She aged already... Used to look better.

Then i'm sure she is that "xmm" that some bros here are referring to.

 

She's no longer a xmm lah.

Another choice for tailor made.

I like Van Heusen (cotton rich) shirts.

 

This is the only shirt I have worn so far which doesn't require any ironing!

I just need to hang up immediately after each machine wash.

 

I used to buy one at $20+ during a cheap sale at Isetan. Recently, I bought another one and it cost close to $70.

Does anyone know of any place to get such cotton rich, wrinkle-free shirts at a more affordable price?

 

The shirt is comfortable.

 

 

[13177]

Very seldom when you wash your shirt using machine no need to iron and it will wrinkle-free! I find some shirt material very difficult to iron, dont know what material are they using?! But some very easy to iron.
