I'm thinking of ordering a few shirts from either T.M. Lewin (www.tmlewin.co.uk - they also have a .com.au site) and/or Charles Trywhitt (www.ctshirts.co.uk). Preference is for the former as they have the neck/sleeve length combination that I'm after while the latter will charge 8.95GBP to alter sleeve length beyond their standard offerings.

Has anyone here purchased from either of the two? Any opinions on the two with regards to their quality, or any other "Jermyn Street" tailors that offer a good value?

FWIW, I love shirts with a nice stiff collar, and crisp cuffs.

Are Next any good for you? Sorry, not much call for formal shirts in Cairns!

I bought from T.M.Lewin a couple of times - good quality shirts, you can select +/- an inch of the sleeve length (not considered "personalized" tailoring, so there is no delay in dispatching the order).

He's BE's unofficial representative for House of Fraser. If you ask nicely, he'll measure you for a suit.

Target and a can of starch.

Class! (Well in Aus at least!)

I was being serious!!!

Shakes head sadly & walks away!

Both are very good. In my opinion, Charles Tyrwhitt are higher quality. But having said that, the quality does vary across ranges.

And use a bit of Mr Sheen on the flip flops for the real "Colonial Squire" effect!!!

Having discovered TM Lewin a couple years back I wear them for work exclusively.

Simply Can't get the same quality for the price.

I get a Windsor collar with double cuffs and love them.

Delivery takes about a week to Oz.

I used to get shirts from TM Lewin delivered to Oz 8 months ago was my last purchase. From memory it's VAT and GST free and they regularly have offers. Much better quality than anything under $200 in Australia.

Definitely agree. Used to wear Lewins everyday at work and they are great. Thomas Pink might be a cut above if you get those online??

I've always wanted to look like this, I'm in.
