Breathable Business Shirts

Buy good quality 100% cotton shirts. Job done.

This pretty much, no problem with my Charles tyrwitt shirts but cheap "100%" cotton ones I've picked up in an emergency from somewhere like tesco feel horrible to wear.

Only problem with 100% cotton shirts is they're a pig to iron.

Another vote for Charles Tyrwitt, very good value and quality

Hint - search for TM Lewis on google, the first google advert will be for Charles Tyrwitt shirts at a discounted price...

I’ve tried most of the jermyn street tailors and found Hawes and Curtis to be the best. They are all reasonably similar but Hawes and Curtis have an additional button which keeps the shirt nicely tucked in.

Also coming to shout about CT Shirts ... all my shirts are from there.

I find non-iron shirts are less breathable than their regular equivalents. But that could all be in my head...

TM Lewin, CT and M&S are the go to brands for cheap but decent enough office shirts. The first two nearly always have a sale or multi but offer on too.

Minor correction - it’s TM Lewin, I don’t get the advert when I search for it tho? I do get a 10% off link just searching for Charles Tyrwhitt.

Also as a general rule don't ever buy a single shirt from CT or TM Lewin, they have always got multi buy promotions on. If you're only after a couple of shirts yourself, chat to a friend, I used to pick up a shirt a month by splitting a multibuy with the guys at the office.

Top tip, instead of using the steam button, spray lots of water then iron, works a treat

Maybe you're fatter and more unfit than 10 years ago?

£60 for a single shirt? The world truly has gone mad.

Primark shirts are excellent!

They all look like they're on sale for around £30-40, not bad if they can outlast multiple cheaper shirts and they're comfortable to wear. Few things kill a shirt like sweat.

Nope lol

I use dunnes stores shirts and sweat cobs so have to change shirt every 30 minutes like a barn line dancer. Dont think its shirts fault, i bottle up anger eg when a certain person speaks, a certain person types to loud etc.. All the usual good stuff

I now swear by a brand called Olymp who are a German company with several different designs and fits. I go for the body fit level 5.

The difference is they are engineered to fit like t-shirts so are more comfy all day so you sweat less than a formal shirt. Expensive and I'll usually pay between 60-80 per shirt, but they outlast anything available in Next by 4-5 times.

Some German clothing specs I find impenetrably obscure to understand. They ought to hire translators with common sense.

Only buy TM Lewin nowadays. Used to buy from M&S (their cheap ones) and they were a pain to iron and not comfortable at all. TM Lewin non iron shirts are fantastic, comfortable and look good. Just pop in store and ask them to figure out your size properly, otherwise wrong sizing can affect how comfortable you feel.

You must be joking. I bought £200 worth of HC shirts a few months ago and after two weeks I sent the lot back for a refund. I agree with everyone on trustpilot.
They are absolutely awful to iron (easy iron lol) and crease like crazy. Just getting out of the car looks like they've never seen an iron.

Not a patch on CT.
