Tasting Notes: From the site experience to the measuring videos to the packaging to the shirt itself, Alexander West provided the most enjoyable shopping experience overall. The gingham shirt we ordered wasn't cheap ($130 + shipping) but it gets all the details exactly right. (Especially if you like a collar so stiff it could probably teach a thing or two to Viagra's R and D department.)
