When it comes to buying shirts, most men face the same dilemma: Should I go for off-the-rack or invest in custom shirts? Let’s break it down.
1. Fit
- Off-the-Rack: Standard sizes like S, M, L. Rarely perfect—too tight in the chest, too loose at the waist.
- Custom Shirts: Made based on your exact measurements. Shoulder slope, arm length, and torso fit are all tailored to you.
2. Fabric Quality
- Off-the-Rack: Often polyester blends, less breathable.
- Custom Shirts: Usually 100% cotton, Egyptian cotton, or premium blends. Comfortable, breathable, and long-lasting.
3. Personalization
- Off-the-Rack: Limited style choices.
- Custom Shirts: Choose collar type, cuff style, monogram, and even button materials.
✅ Verdict: If you value comfort, appearance, and long-term value, custom shirts are worth every penny.
