How do you soften a stiff new button-down mens dress shirt?

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

I have several mens dress shirts for work. Some are very soft and comfortable, but some seem to stay stiff and uncomfortable despite 10 or more regular washings. There must be a secret I don’t know about.

Mist it with water, and put it in the dryer on high. Let it bang around in there. Maybe the stiff ones are not 100% cotton.

Need to know if a US size mens shirt is the same for the UK size?

Sunday, June 28th, 2009

Hi, trying to buy a mens shirt from the U.S (Not a dress or formal shirt so no neck size) which will either be a 4XL or 5XL. Can’t figure out if they are the same size in both countries? Google no help, just confusing as for instance ladies say for example can be a 30 inch chest but will NOT be the same size in the UK to the US but the inches are the same. Different web sites say different things – HELP!!!!!!!


It is confusing. Brand to brand sizing can be different and that annoys me as I do most of my clothes shopping online so I have to send it back. I’d recommend sending the store an email asking about the sizing rather than just going by a general sizing if you’re unsure. They should be happy to help.

Has anyone had trouble finding mens dress shirts that fit right?

Has anyone had trouble finding mens dress shirts that fit right?

My neck is 17-17 1/2 but the shirt at the bottom looks horrible when its tucked in and way too big. I have a bodybuilder physique where I’m larger up top and then my waist slims down to my hips ( V shape body). Just trying to find shirts that are slim or tailored already so that I don’t have to buy 5 or 6 shirts and get them all tailored. Anyone know any stores that sell shirts for men with this body shape or more narrow and body fit clothes.

Thanks! I tried JCPenny which was where I had to return a shirt but they didnt have any custom fit ones so to speak. Just whatever the neck size was pretty much they all are the same in the bottom. I guess I will have to check out Macy’s or another department store else tailor shop/mens wearhouse to see what size I am. Thanks for the responses so far …

Look for shirts that are labeled as “Fitted Dress Shirt” – That’s how manufacturers indicate that the shirt has more of a taper at the waist line than a standard shirt. Most major brands, including Van Husen and Arrow offer fitted shirts, and you should be able to find them at most major department stores – but you may have to ask a sales person to help you, since they are sometimes buried under the regular shirts.

If a fitted shirt doesn’t offer enough of a taper, then you may have to look at on line sellers that specialize in shirts for bodybuilders (such as http://www.hotbodz.com/ )- but the selection in mens dress shirts from the specialty shops is usually quite limited.
