Performance Dress Shirt Round-Up - Mizzen and Main vs State & Liberty vs Bluffworks & more

Links & Timestamps below so you can jump around

In my opinion performance dress shirts are some of the best shirts you can buy. They don't require dry cleaning or special care, they are more comfortable as they stretch, and usually have cooling and moisture wicking properties that take comfort to a whole new level above your standard cotton dress shirt. Looking for the best performance dress shirts? Look no further!

It annoys me that your channel isn’t as big as the bigger names like TMF and AlphaM. Your content is soooo much more comprehensive and unique. I hope you continue to grow to their size.

I have Completely overhauled my wardrobe with your recommendations. Ministry of Supply is hands down my favorite. Thank you Jon. Keep them coming.

Mizzen and Main is the absolute best ! I've tried the rest and these guys are unbeatable. Made in USA as well - also their magnetic collar stays are great

[jodyjoyner]

Just bought some mizzen and main based upon reviews and I absolutely love them! Had no idea about performance dress shirts until checking out your channel. Thanks for the awesome content, Jon!!

I think you really undersold the ministry of supply's fit. Their shirts are absolutely incredible and feel amazing. The fact that they designed their shirts around how a man body moves is incredible. I never knew how comfortable a dress shirt could be until I tried them. Also, if you don't love the fit, I believe Ministry will cover your tailoring costs as well. I love mizzen and main, but I almost feel naked at work wearing ministry of supply

Just picked up a Mizzen+Main shirt based on this video. Thanks man

[PKDN]

Thank you for these great videos and advice! Based on this video I ended up stopping in a Bonobos guide shop (not easy for a Canadian like me) and I found a shirt that fit me off the rack for the first time! I ended up purchasing the tech shirts and they're amazing!

[noochy]

Appreciate the time you took to make this video. I never heard of some of the companies on it but since watching it have ordered Woodies, Bonobos and, not sure if on this video, Bugatchi but love them all. Thanks!

[gesu]

Ironically, in my opinion State & Liberty and Woodies looked the best on you. Thanks for the review! To me these are all too expensive for what they are.

[cjjuddaustralianartist]

Love your style man, I particularly like the straight in on point, I can't stand minute-long intros like in other vids. Well done man!

[zachmitchem]

I have been waiting for this one ever since I found your channel! Love it! Thank you for putting in all the effort to do this for us!

[vidster]

Thanks for the vid Jon. Ive been collecting different dress shirts and ties.and i agree this is on point .ty for the hard work putting on and off those shirts just for the peeps wanting to find a great dress shirts for this one (performance wise)

Update - M&M is now making there clothing overseas. You can zero in on the label of their newer items and see made in Indonesia, etc I conversed with their information department and they acknowledged this transition to 3rd world outsourcing. So if you are buying for Made In USA think again now. Funny how their prices didn't even come down going to 3rd world labor.

[mscebold]

Just placed an order for my first Mizzen + Main dress shirt thanks to this video! Can’t wait to give it a shot! Thanks, Jon!

[brandonfairbanks]

I'm glad I stumbled across this vide. I've been buying exclusively at State and Liberty (I wear a 44 jacket and a 33 waist, so the "athletic fit" sounded perfect. I'll have to try some of these others.

[schmenken]

Based on your advice, I ordered a Twillory and a Woodies ... Mizzen & Main is on its way. So far I really love the Woodies, like the Twillory quite a lot, and am looking forward to the M&M. Thanks for the comparison review!

[jmikepow]

Mizzen and Main all the way! I only have about 20 of their shirts now :)

[cspdx]

also M&M has some awesome magnetic collar stays. Collars stand up all day sharp!

[freddieslaughter]

The best kind that I like are Roundtree & Yorke, cotton & polyester dress shirt.

[TylerSmith]

Great roundup. Most of my shirts are Mizzen and Main these days, they're the perfect shirt if you don't mind the cost (last chance section is pretty awesome).
