I bought 3 shirts on suitsupply outlet. The sales associate says my neck size is 14.5 but majority of the shirts I try, they are really tight on my shoulder and arms.

Do you guys think half size would make the big difference on neck?

Not too much unless you really want to have a perfect fit for the neck. The extra .5 in shouldn't be much of an issue, but at the very least you should have better chest and arm comfort

Is it so slim that you should size up one? Say from 40R to 42R? La Spalla in a 40R seems to fit well for me but its a different type so.
I wear 36 in Havana and Hudson and have to go to 38 for Copenhagen. Not familiar with La Spalla.

Okay good to know! Yes, I thought having a comfortable arm/chest fit would be more desirable than perfect neck fit. (Also, it is final sale after all.)

Thanks for your advice. Have a good Friday evening

Thanks. I ended up getting a 42R Copenhagen. Hopefully it fits or I'll be offloading it.

On another note does SS do alterations for their products bought at the outlet? I'm thinking about taking my recent purchases there because I have not found a decent local tailor.

^ Saphir is a great product, but $39 is a lot when you can buy separates on Amazon.
