What owners report about Turnbull & Asser button-ups

Forum posters rate Turnbull & Asser shirts among the top tier of English ready-to-wear for construction, citing dense stitching, hand-sewn side-seam gussets, and consistently clean finishing. The recurring gripe is price rather than quality: several Ask Andy posters call the shirts good but dreadfully expensive, arguing similar quality can be had elsewhere on Jermyn Street for less. Reviewers also note the styling reads business-first — the house medium-spread collar does not sit as well worn open — so the line suits tucked, tailored wear better than casual use.

Strengths: Owners consistently report first-rate English construction — dense stitching, reinforced seams, collars that keep their shape — with quality described as flawless and consistent across the range.
Watch out for: Reviewers say you pay a steep heritage premium, and the formal cut and collar styling limit the shirts' usefulness worn casually or open-necked.
Sizing: The old generous cut has been phased out for a decidedly slimmer ready-to-wear block, so longtime buyers report the current fits run trimmer than they expect; Regular remains the roomiest of the three fits.
