I suffer from the "dad bod" with a slight athletic build resulting in a broader shoulder/chest and fitness neglect resulting in a slight beer belly. This means i'm in between sizes in most department store brands. To get the right slim fit in chest/waist I end up trading off in a smaller neck size. To get the right neck size, I end up with excess fabric in the chest and waist, resulting in the "blousing" effect. Enter Proper Cloth. Based on one recommendation, I took an off-the-rack shirt that fit me close to what I wanted then sized down from there. It took a couple of tries to get the exact measurements right but the process was painless in both time and money, given their policy of no-cost alterations on your first shirt. Proper Cloth's customer service is top-notch and responded quickly to my inquiries and remade my shirt to new measurements without question or delay. I plan to rebuild my dress shirt wardrobe from Proper Cloth over time.
