Big and tall black dress shirts?

Hey guys,

I’m trying to find where to get some more of these shirts. The one I have, I ganked from my dad but I want some more as they are going to become my standard dress for work.

I need bigger than normal sizes but I haven’t found a big and tall vendor online who carries black dress shirts.

Thanks guys,

Here’s one –> Dress Shirts –> Fashion Colored Dress Shirts. They have “mostly cotton” ones (maybe the balance is poly?), if that’s the fabric you’re looking for? $40 might be a little steep though.

We like Casual Male Big & Tall. Here’s one of theirs. A more detailed description of what you’re looking for might help. :wink:

Google shows three Men’s Wearhouses in Orlando. Give 'em a call!

Those are the right style shirts, the main problem is fitting me. My neck is, I believe, 21" around, and I forget the rest of my measurements. After the next paycheck I’ll take Krokodil’s suggestion and hit a real gasp store. I just default to shopping online these days.

I’ve found that Men’s Wearhouse is indeed a good choice, if somewhat expensive. The problem I’ve had in the past, however, is that I had to have all my dress shirts altered, as the very large neck size did not really match with the rest of my measurements. On the plus side, you can have the alterations done at the store if you don’t know a tailor. On the minus side, that’s another $10 or so for the alterations.

If you do start shopping routinely there, I suggest getting their frequent buyer card. A $50 gift certificate for every $500 spent isn’t a bad deal.

The link I had has 21" only on the last choice “Tall 18.5 to 22”.

Well I went to Men’s Wearhouse and they didn’t have any shirts for me, though I did get my measurements: 20" and 39". I admit I never tire of the reactions I get from salespeople when they take my measurements.

In any case, I’m still hunting.

Do you have a K&G around? Cheap dress-shirts and they had one to fit my 19" self.

Can you go into more detail about what you’re looking for? Fabric type, price range?

I’ve never heard of K&G so I’m guessing the answer is no.

gigi, I’m looking for a black button down dress shirt. It’s what I’ve decided is my dress code at work and I only have the one shirt. I’ve found one candidate on Amazon, it’s a tuxedo shirt but it’s the right sort of idea. Linky

I tend to wear the shirt with jeans, untucked and with sleeves rolled up, collar undone. But if the sleeves actually fit (a novelty in my life) then I might keep them down and buttoned.

Is that what you were looking for?

I’ll add this to some of the other suggestions in the thread:

http://martinsbigandtall.com/dressshirts.php They seem to have Tall 20/38-39 in black. No confirmation on the buttondownness of the collar.

I get these guys’ catalog on a regular basis, and it always seems like on the small side for them (18-1/2, 33).
