      M&S for me, though I wish they did red in their casual range. I may pick up a couple at Next, but I wasn't thrilled with their "non-iron" McDonalds shirts in the past.

        Next quality is horrendous in my experience. While the cut/fit of their clothes is good, longevity wasn't.

          My white shirts from Next were all some other shade than brilliant within a few washes. I use Daz now, so maybe that would be different, but I just can't wear white any more, it's so boring. Can't have the boys at the office knocking me for having no style!

            Totally this. I got one shirt ages ago and no matter when I ironed it, straight out the washer or dry I couldn't get it looking smooth and sharp. Awful.

              Well remembered! Suits only, occasionally a pair of shoes if I'm in there. Shirts I don't bother with from there. Had one a long time ago and was OK'ish but TM's were hands down better so stick with them now.

                Need more than one? I got a catalogue today from Charles Tyritt and they are doing 4 for hundred notes (non irons and the rest.)

                I have one, nice quality.

                I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

                  Glad this thread got resurrected as I need some new shirts and I've been meaning to try iTailor.

                  I can recommend Boss (again) for OTP shirts. Good quality fabric, hard wearing and a good fit for me at least. Good range of styles and colours as well.

                    I only wore crisp white ironed shirts as a permie working in London - either CT or Hawes and Curtis. Since moving to contracting end of last year, and my first contract being WFH, I felt the need to grow my casual shirt collection - got 5 CT shirts for 100 over Christmas sale and they are good quality so far. Now I don't look like a bum even when WFH

                      Anther TM here. Lucky enough to have a factory outlet near me (Cheshire Oaks, where there's a Jaeger outlet also). When measured for my suit I got measured for shirts also.The TM the label tells you the neck size (as you'd expect) and the arm length, so as good as a tailored one if you like the cut.
