I find their shirts to be very large in the body, almost tent-like. I'd recommend trying one on before plunking down the cash fo 10 shirts. That said, I think the quality is great, particularly for the price.

 

I called their customer service because I was worried about that but they seem to have a pretty good system in place. Can anyone reccomend any othere shirtmakers in the same "league" as CT or TP?

Rickets -- have you tried the slim fit shirts? that might help solve the issue.

bj4224 -- consider Brooks Brothers -- they have some nice shirts in similar price range, as well as some that are even less expensive (I think three for $189 or something like that). I generally buy my shirts from BB, Charles Tyrwhitt or Thomas Pink, and the quality is pretty comparable. There's this perception that Thos. Pink is "better" just because their least expensive shirt features finer stitching and cotton than the least expensive shirts offered by BB and Tyrwhitt, but I think you can find good stuff from all three makers at reasonable prices.

All three companies have sales fairly often. I think you can sign up for alerts via their websites.

Wow, THAT looks like fun!!!!

$1395 for 1-day ain't too shabby.

But NO. Not an appropriate gift for my brother-in-law.

(U know what HE gave me last year? A tool box. Actually, come to think of it, it came in quite handy this year!)

I would only gift something like Skip Barber racing school to someone I really really really, positively, absolutely have the hots for. Which at the moment is Clive Owen. He's dreamy. :-)

Shirts and colognes Tirekicker. Let's focus on shirts and colognes.

Wait a second... is that why the name "Tirekicker"... is this you're secret fantasy? To become a race car driver?

Quit your job. DO IT.

 

Good guess, but alas no. "TireKicker" is a lame reference to the IB due diligence process (i.e. going out and "kicking the tires")...in my own case by doing site visits to a company's properties.

The term can also be used pejoratively when it describes investors in the M&A process who sign CAs but aren't really interested in putting in a bid. They just want to "kick the tires" and glean info from the competition.

 

Pink and CT are Jermyn St/Savile Row shirtmakers

Others you may like to try are Haines and Bonner, Gieves and Hawkes, Hawes and Curtis. Should all be comparable quality.
