Trying to find a dress shirt that can be closed at at the collar and doesn't swallow me is tough. They just don't make 17 1/2 neck shirts that fit a 36 waisted guy with short arms unless you pay $85+ for them. I have found a good tailor can do it all on a less expensive shirt and get me into a nice looking dress shirt for under the $50 range. Polo's should be a snap for them.

Thats a good idea, I had forgotten all about that. I used to get all my uniform shirts tailored when I worked for Public Safety (Poor college department so all the uniforms were hand me downs that were clearly worn by stereo typical oversized guards).

I hope the tailor I pick is 2a friendly.

I have two of their Longtail Polo Shirts and its just too billowy/wide for me (the length is GREAT though). If I were 20lbs heavier it would work better. But I look/feel a little funny in it because its SO wide too. Their Slim fit longtail t-shirt is great though. Its a little tighter than I would prefer for CHLing but its not printing just a slight bulge with the G19 OWB, its would be totally invisible if I were carrying IWB .
I have not tried any of the regular T-shirts or Henleys yet though. I was planning on getting one of the henleys soon though.

EDIT: I'm 6" and 172lbs
