Help bees! DH has been wearing Kohls shirts but wants to up his style game. We're having trouble finding slim fitting, no-iron shirts in our podunk town... help!
I have seen some listed at Brooks Brothers ($!) and Express. Anyone have feedback on the quality of either or other suggestions? Help please!

BB is worth the money. There are usually pretty decent sales, so watch for those if you have the time to wait.

I second @MsLipGloss -- BB are definitely worth it, just have to wait for a good sale.

Banana republics are great but a little expensive. Thankfully BR always has sales.

Bb is worth the money. That's what my dad and bil wear. The best is if you go to the outlet or find a big sale that they have.

The best truly no-iron ones DH likes are LL Bean but the material is very thick, in case climate is an issue. Jos. A. Banks has a Traveller's Collection that's no-iron that also works well.

Charles Tyrwhitt are my husband's favorite! I refuse to buy BB because the non iron coating causes them to rip on the seams at the forearm (not only my husband, but my coworkers and I see it on other men in meetings too!). LL Bean are great, but they are more casual and only have button down collar.

BB is nearly all my husband wears; they hold up well, are easy to care for and extremely well made!

DH loves the Traveler JosABanks ones. He wears the slim fit. Brooks Brothers are too baggy for DH. He also said Banana Republic have some nice ones too.

Another vote for Charles Tyrwhitt. They run sales often (I think) so dh has never paid full price for a shirt.

Nordstroms brand has nice slim cut shirts. My husband is really thin and they look great on him.

DH really likes the Kenneth Cole slim cut ones at Macy's. He has a couple Calvin Klein ones that are nice as well.

My DH also really likes the brooks brothers shirts, and he doesn't usually like to spend money on clothing. It's worth it if they are on sale..

anotehr vote for charles tyrwhitt! They always have sales, usually 4 for 200, which is really good. DH loves the slim fit no iron shirts.

Second the opinion that BB is worth the money for no-iron. And their non-iron come in French cuff, which DH loves (he complains the the LL Bean shirts are too casual - they only come in button- down collars). If you have an outlet near you, they usually have great sales.

Eddie Bauer actually has great ones! They're like my DH's uniform for everything.

Yet another vote for Charles Tyrwhitt! DH will only wear their shirts! And he is very picky about fabrics, fit, etc. He won't wear BB because they are never slim enough for his frame.

Another CT or BB fan. DH wears the classic fit, but the quality is worth it-- is there a BB outlet store near you at all?

DH likes Kenneth Cole & Calvin Klein slim fit, we found them both at Younkers. He likes them better than his Express shirts!

@LemonLong: Same here!
My DH is tall, thin, and lanky and the Nordstroms shirts look perfectly tailored. They have regular fit, trim, and extra trim. We got them during a promotion for $19.99 each.
