    Where would I get nice work shirts for about €100. I have two nice Polo ones but want to look at something different.

    M&S shirts are great value for the money. They wash and iron really well.

    Yeah I got a few M&S shirts myself and they're nice alright.

    Why would anyone "aim" to spend 100euro on a shirt?
    I don't get it...

    can absolutely recommend charles tyrwhitt - www.ctshirt.com/block - that link has 50% off their prices - still works until end of year and even for subsequent orders
    www.tmlewin.co.uk is ok but I didn't like the quality, can't comment on premium shirts from them however since I rarely need french cuffs
    www.jantzentailor.com - unbeatable value for tailored but hard to contact and some fabrics plainly suck while others are great

    Cause not everyone works in a factory. M&S shirts are great and all that, but if you want to look good you'd be better off trying shirts that fit whatever build you are so you can look neat and respectable, as opposed to looking like you've just been on a threadmill for the last 5 hours

    Still, €100's a bit excessive, don't you think?

    His money, his choice tbh.

    (But if you want a proper discussion about how much money one should spend on clothes, start a new thread - could be interesting!)

    but how else can you get a shirt that says "I can spend 100 euro on a shirt"
    :)

    For €100 I'd buy 10 extremely good work shirts in M&S. The ones for a tenner are practically impossible to tell apart from the ones that cost €40+.

    For €100 I'd expect a shirt to be hand-woven by Tibetan spiders and permanently stitched onto my body.

    Tall, athletic types like myself look very suave in an M&S shirt, but granted that squat dwarves with overactive sweat glands may need to up the cost of their work clobber to try and look equally presentable.

    And drink bottled lager no doubt?

    Thomas Pink on Dawson St, IMO is by far the best for shirts in Dublin

    I bought some M&S shirts a while ago on the advice of a friend and I haven't even opened half of them.

    They're just not comfortable and if I'm wearing them day in day out I want to be sitting in something that I hardly notice. I was constantly fidgiting in them.

    It's well worth spending extra on a good 100% cotton shirt. And, usually, and unfortunately, the better quality the shirt the more expensive it is.

    T.M. Lewin is better, just opened on South Annes street. Great quality shirts, not cheap tho'!
