NEW YORK CLASSIC FIT - Spread Broadcloth

Beautifully made, nice fabric and very nice shade of pale blue. I was a bit unsure about sizing, so I contacted customer service with my measurements (and a couple of other questions). The response was quick and very helpful – I was advised to get a size 42. Still a bit skeptical, I decided to order two sizes, 42 and 41, and the 41 fitted perfectly out of the bag, so I sent 42 back. However, after washing the shirt, it has shrunk just that tiny bit to make me regret my choice. It is not unwearable, but the 42, after shrinkage, would have been perfect, just like I was told. The shrinkage is very clearly indicated in the size chart to be 2%, which I think is completely normal, and if you do the math (I didn’t) that equates to a little less than one full size at the chest (3% between 41 and 42). So, in conclusion, the sizing issue was 100% my own mistake, but now I know exactly what size to get next time.

I would love to see more options available in the NY classic fit (or “untucked”), especially when it comes to collars (there is of course the possibility of MTO). The “sport” looks great for less formal button-down. One option that I can’t find, even in MTO, is a casual unlined point collar - this would be very useful too.
