So I’ve learned that if you follow Charles Tyrwhitt on Instagram there is a near constant 3 shirts for $99 deal at any time of year. I’ve been grabbing their linen shirts lately and at $33 each with the deal they have to be one of the better steals out there. As I think DH said years ago in this thread, that 3/$99 deal makes a quality shirt the same price as a shitty shirt you’d find at Kohl’s.

You don't work in I.T., do you? If you're going through that many linen shirts, you're either a lawyer, an insurance guy or you go to a lot of funerals.Originally posted by SteelBlue View Post"The mind is not a boomerang. If you throw it too far it will not come back." ~ Tom McGuaneComment

No, I wear them casually in summer and don’t go through them at all, they will probably last forever for me. I have a uniform at work..Comment

Full disclosure, I know nothing about linen shirts, other than it sounds fancy. In my world, you dress like you just finished a round of golf. If you're a project exec, you look like you just finished at Doral. If you're me you just need to look you just finished golfing at a place where you need to know someone to get on. If you're an architect, look like you golfed at a respectable public course. If you're an analyst or below, the Top Golf look is fine.Originally posted by falafel View Post"The mind is not a boomerang. If you throw it too far it will not come back." ~ Tom McGuaneComment

After being devoted to Brooks Brothers non-iron pinpoint Oxford shirts for two decades, I’ve switched allegiances (at least for white shirts. Roundtree & York Gold Label (Dillard’s brand), spread collar, fitted cut is my new #1. They come out of the dryer looking like a million bucks, and full price are $55 (and you can snag them on sale a few times a year).Jesus wants me for a sunbeam.

No dry cleaning needed with these bad boys (well for the first six months anyway).

But I did look at their shirts for the first time in a long time. I do have several Daniel Cremieux ties.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

I may give them a look. I've been pretty solidly Charles Tyrwhitt for about 15 years, but I think they have lowered their quality in the last few years to try to maintain their familiar price point, and I'm not loving it. $55 feels like the right price for a quality dress shirt right now. But I'll still get them dry cleaned. I'm not a peasant.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a shirt dry cleaned
"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. UchtdorfComment
