I became a big fan of AI Stone

They're on sale now - 4/$100.

Do you feel the quality is comparable to or superior to Tyrwhitt? BB? Which other brands would you compare them to?
Do you find the cut to be comparable to Tyrwhitt?
How about the non iron aspect? Looks sharp fresh out of dryer? Do you get the sleeve crease lines?

Anyone else with AI Stone reviews?

The look was nice, but they didn't last long. Press line along the sleeve split after a bunch of wears, along with the standard rapid fraying that occurs with most shirts eventually, just happened more quickly here (for me).

On the other hand, if you have well defined muscles and want to show off your "guns" but make it look like an accident, they're a great way to go!

How would you compare them to Tyrwhitt in terms of durability and build quality and lifespan that it stayed in nice condition? (Tyrwhitt is also tight enough that it displays your bodily contours or muscles, I think. Feels like it'll split at the elbow if you stretch, though, particularly if shirt isn't brand new and is starting to wear on points that take pressure. I've ruined Tyrwhitt's like that. Usually left elbow, for some reason.)

I feel like it wore out much quicker, although I have more Jos. A. Bank shirts than CT (only bought from CT once).

Also - they split even though they weren't so tight - they were just that compromised.

Is there a thread for "You might NOT be a DDFer if..."?

Hey, I'm old school, still like the Jos. A. Bank - although I regret not reserving a room in my house from when they had them on sale for ~$12.

Non iron aspect is most important for me.

Can these be hung and worn right after drying ?

Also if I buy 4 for 100 and they don't fit right, am I out 100 dollars?
