A huge plus is that they're made here.

But you can just order one of their "standard fit" shirts. Those are $55 each, but require you to buy a minimum of 3 at a time....so...

Couldn't agree more about the quality degradation on the "A Cut Above" shirts. The last set I ordered started pilling immediately, the pockets didn't have pen inserts on both sides, only one pocket has the velcro which seems weird, and loose threads in many places. They have gotten worse each of the last 2 orders I've had. The main reason I have purchased them again is simply no one else has the fit and wrinkle resistance they do. If some one knows of one please chime in, I'm at least willing to give something else a chance.

Pilot House Tapered Pilot Shirts ~ High Quality Airline Pilot Uniforms
I've used this company for years and found these to be the best looking and fitting shirts for the price ($27.95). Made in Canada.
Not a see-through shirt like most Phoenix and Van Heusens and you won't look like you are in a Missy Elliott video.

Just make sure you want a really beefy oxford shirt if you do the PilotHouse shirts. You starch them and they are likely to stand on their own. They are thick.

Another thumbs down for A Cut Above. They have gone from a pretty good shirt to Walmart quality.
Their only advantage is they don't come fitting like a parachute.
Buts that's it.
Someone please give me an alternative that isn't $50 for a work shirt.
