Another mail out campaign received from Charles Tyrwhitt, another 3 shirts for $99 code. Enjoy!
personally, I would go CT, but there's genuinely not much between them so it's mainly personal preference. TM Lewin is sized slightly differently so depending on your body shape and size one might be better for you than the other. Both brands are competing in exactly the same quality and price class so it 100% just comes down to whatever fits you better.

I assume it's the non-iron everyone goes for?
Yep. :)
I have very specific filters I apply when buying shirts from CT
Extra slim fit
Non-iron
41cm collar
86cm sleeve
Single cuff
Lighter weight
4-way stretch
Really helps filter down to a few shirts for these deals to add to my collection.
What do you do when your collar size is 39 but you fit in extra small Ts?
Could try one of each of the extra and super slims. Return and/or exchange what doesn't fit
Thanks Op. Love shirts from CT. I have been buying them for over 10 years now and are of high quality so they last ages!! Great customer service from them as well!! Thanks.
Warning to people that the price is charged in UK pounds I believe, so if you use a credit card that charges for foreign currency conversion, you will be hit with an extra charge (approx. 3%).
I find this type of advertising deceptive. They need to specify you will be charged in pounds, not give the impression it is charged in AU currency and then get hit with a conversion fee.
Also postage was $15.95 for me not $14.95.
got charged in AUD using paypal.
careful, paypal will give you a rotten conversion rate!
got charged in AUD- $114.. what is rotten about it?
got charged in AUD, used 28degrees mastercard
It seems that you have to buy all three with the same colour? I don't want three shirts with the same colour. People will ask, "Didn't you wear that shirt yesterday? Like that Seinfeld episode with the woman who wore the same dress every day. But I knew a goth guy who wore all black every day.
EDIT: I was wrong. You can order three different shirts, then apply the code at the checkout.
"If you return an item we will deduct $5.95 from your return credit to cover return shipping costs"
Also
"We will deduct $7.95 from your return credit to cover return delivery costs, however exchanges are always free of charge. "
So which is correct? Not that it matters, I can use paypal refunded returns shipping. Also no mention of re-stocking fee on their website.
Just received the shirt last night. Their Slim size is still too FAT. Extra slim is okay. Should've gone to Extra Slim fit
You asian built? Wide shoulders with thin waist?
Thanks OP. Been waiting for this for a while now.
Has anyone ever bought a suit from CT? If so, what's the quality like?
Do they ever have sales on complete suits?
Has anyone else found the CT cuffs to be too loose or is it just my skinny wrists?
This is my first time trying CT. I do need to go one size smaller on the sleeve length but the cuffs seem a lot bigger than I expected. Especially the double cuff.
From memory, the TM Lewin ones had a "normal" sized cuff.
No I have no issues with the cuffs on either TM or CT. Isn't your problem related to having the wrong size shirt?
Only my sleeve length is incorrect. Need to go down 2cm.
Does the sleeve length affect the cuff diameter?
Just wanting to check if their cuffs are generally a larger style.
Only good for fat people.. IF you're fit and want fitted, don't bother.
Extra slim fit, probably won't fit a 'fat' person.
Extra slim fit still has way too much excess material around the waist..
Extra slim fit will fit a skinny 6fter person. If you are short and skinny you might struggle.
FYI - You can order 6 shirts, use the code and only pay $213.95 (so one lot of shipping).
EDIT: Qantas shopping is also doing 6 points for every dollar spent at CT. pretty good if you are going to spend a few hundred and aren't going to roll the dice with cashback.
Which of these shirts are the best in terms of quality? I prefer non-iron shirts, but others might like feedback on iron shirts too.
So based on your direct experience, CT vs TML?
