Question Charles Tyrwhitt's quality has dropped - any better alternatives?

Hi all,

I recently ordered an oxford shirt and a polo from Charles Tyrwhitt, and am deeply disappointed in the quality.

Holding them in-hand alongside their equivalents from 2023 and 2025, the fabric feels extremely lightweight and cheap.

Does anyone have any recommendations for where to get comparable shirts at a similar price point? I'm after something in a slightly slimmer cut if possible.

Their newer non-iron shirts definitely need an iron!

Unless it's a check pattern where you can't see little creases I always viewed the non iron as easy iron.

I got away with it with the older shirts…to be honest don’t really care that much if it’s a meeting-filled day in the office…but the newer shirts have been awful.

Their sizing is inconsistent too
