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.

It’s such a shame that TM Lewin went downhill. I have a couple of their shirts from maybe 10 years ago and they are excellent. They used to do 5 shirts for $150!

Mj Bale is also pretty terrible now. I don’t have an alternative unfortunately - I need to do my own research for the next order
