Where can I find short button up shirts?
post #1

I wear a medium but even a medium seems too long on me. The small sizes are just to tight on my shoulders and arms though. I guess I am looking for a more fitted medium?? Not really sure. I need a few dress shirts. I am going to be in a wedding in late May.

Fitted shirts may be too small depending on the brand. I get my dress button tops at JC Penney or Kohls.

Have you tried finding shops that offer tops for "younger" men. Like how women have Juniors sizing.

How short are you? I mean I never had a problem finding these kind of tops because they already run smaller.

I was going to say the same thing. I mean dress shirts run tighter and shorter when you know what you are shopping for.

Try looking at certain brands lengths. Some are shorter than others. Find a brand that has shorter shirts and then find a store that carried them.

I would do this. Most of the time you can find a listing of brand sizing with lengths. I can't recall the average length of a men's medium in button ups though.

Check out the articles here about Uniqlo and Express. You can easily buy an XS or an S. If they're still to big, just get them altered. I've had some shirts altered before and the dry cleaners normally charge $10-$20 depending on the shirt.
