Did anybody get the $20 dollar gift code to work in conjunction with the $30 shirts?

Personally I find TM Lewin shirts miles away better in terms of material and construction comparing to Tyrwhitt.. But on the other side, Tyrwhitt suits are stunning.

Spot on! I love TML shirts but CT jackets, suits, trousers and knitwear are superior.

I have 2 pairs of their sterling silver cufflinks, but I've had hundreds of shirts and haven't found them to be long lasting at all.
Shame, because they're very reasonable, they just wear out too quickly!

I can't comment on TM Lewin because I've never owned any of their shirts. I would love to try one, but they don't offer a single shirt in slim fit with button cuffs and a spread collar. :facepalm: Boggles teh mind...

That's one of my main complaints about them as well. They have so many French cuff shirts. CT at offers all shirts in barrel cuff.

Personally I prefer double cuff, so I wear bespoke or TMLewin shirts with Charles Tyrwhitt cufflinks!

There are basically none with single button cuffs, but I like two-button cuffs.

(Unless you want a more-spread collar than that, of course).

Yes, I would only go for their "cutaway collar", which looks very similar to Tyrwhitt's "spread collar". But thanks anyway!

I can dig it. I guess my definitions for collar types owe a lot to BB -- so the standard Lewin collar looks spread enough for my taste (and is more spread than the CT classic).

I think I'm going to wait for the sale and pick up some TML pinpoints. I need some staple shirts.
