Charles Tyrwhitt Spread/Cutaway Collar shirts???

Anyone familiar with their spread/cutaway collar shirts? I have been stocking up on CT classic collar shirts in the super slim fit cut. Looking to get a couple new designs and I am out of options with the classic collar.

Are the spread/cutaway collar shirts fine to wear without a tie?

Specifically talking about shirts like this: https://www.ctshirts.com/us/super-slim-fit-sky-bl…

 

The shorter points and wide angle of a cutaway collar will go ultra-wide when you unbutton the top button, and may tend to "levitate" with the points floating in the air. You can get a sense for this from (sorry if the image goes too large: WSO doesn't give any control over image formatting)

Different collars have different angles/lengths, so the look will vary. The good news is CT has free returns, and include a return label in the box so you don't have to worry about printing one.

All of my CT shirts are the full "spread" collar. I have a few white ones as well that are the "extreme spread" collar, which look great with a windsor tie knot.

I think their full spread shirts work perfectly fine without ties. I started wearing these when I was an analyst in banking and still wear them pretty often (no tie) along with Proper Cloth - they're great daily beater shirts. I also use wurkin stiffs with mine. Given the collar design, I could see how these shirts may not work well for all face shapes and necks.

I know some of the athletic-fabric type shirts like Mizzen+Main have become popular over the past few years but I still can't get comfortable wearing those to the office. Plus I am not a big fan of a lot of their prints/patterns, which are kind of helpful for masking the athletic fabric.

Full spread would be the same thing as the link above right? Thank you for the input.

 

I think "cutaway" in your original link and the full "spread" are slightly different. They are both a rather wide collar shirt, but I think the "cutaway" style is more of a straight line while the "spread" has a slight curve to the collar. If you look through some of the photos on this link (all CT dress shirts with "spread" collar checked), you should be able to notice a slight difference.
