Review on Men'S French Cuff Dress Shirt Regular Fit Long Sleeve Spread Collar Metal Cufflinks by Daniel Tonini

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fine quality, fit, & value

For reference: I am 6' tall and 195 lbs; I often have a difficult time finding shirts that will across my chest without being extremely loose in the waist. Some information that may help:- Chest is 46 inches and waist is 36 inches and I generally wear a size 44 suit coat.- Neck is 16.5 inches and sleeve is 36 inches.- In purchasing off the rack shirts, I will wear a L or XL depending on manufacturer's cut, and will often wear an athletic cut for undershirts and dress shirts.- Short of ordering tailored shirts, I have a difficult time finding shirts that have a proper fit - I prefer a cut of shirt that is closer to the body and not extremely loose in the chest, sleeves, or waist.- I had ordered 16.5 X 36/37 in the white and sky blue colors,Material: lightweight material that can be worn year round; woven pattern can be felt on the surface of the fabric, is not "wrinkle free" and will demonstrate normal wrinkles after a days useCollar: stays are sewn into the collar and will not accept a loose collar stay; fit of collar is as expectedSleeve length: as expected; collars are not stiff - they do retain a tie without bulging and will lay flatShirt length: as expected; plenty of length so that the shirt does nut become untucked; would not recommend this to be work "untucked"Cuff Links: surprisingly well made; the cuff links are on the heavy side, but the cuff carries the links well; cuff link quality is better than I expected; Of the five shirts that I have ordered I received four different styles of links and one duplicate- Color: the white is a pure white shade and do not have a "warm" or shaded tint; the light blue color is a pleasant pale color that pairs with black, grey, blue, or brown attire.General Fit: as expected in neck and sleeve; across the chest fits well. The waist is somewhat loose without being baggyFor my daily wardrobe, I wear dress shirts with a french cuff as a matter of course and have paid significantly more money for quality similar products. I had ordered a single shirt to confirm quality and fit before ordering an additional four units.Note that I wear the shirt once or twice per month, so I cannot provide an accurate account of how the shirts hold up. The shirts do press well, and hold shape.A good value recommended for a cost conscious buyer.

Pros
  • Nice shirt, but after washing twice...wrinkles seem to be set in.Will most certainly have to iron it.
Cons
  • The spread collar may not be suitable for some face shapes
