For the taller and/or skinner people in here, where are you picking up quality slim fit and/or fitted threads?
Since discovering it via a facebook ad (the only FB ad I've ever ordered something from), I've been buying up shirts from 5th and Lamar as they come out. It's a gem, but the selection and production is limited.
I need at least the length of a large, but the fit of a medium is a solid look on me.
H&M has okay stuff, but it wears out quickly.
I'd love to get a solid list going here, for everyone's benefit.

Search lifestyle section. We have more than a few threads on fitted shirts.
The cycle of disrespect can start with just an appetizer.

Why not just get custom made? Certain places in DC, for example, will make them for about 50-60 per shirt.

Yeah, go custom. Once you start doing that its hard to do anything else. That, or find a decent tailor, but one thats long enough, and have him take it in.

Try Hugo Boss Slim Fits. Great shirts with really no alterations necessary (at least for me). Fit great, straight off the rack.

I like 7 diamonds a lot. They are kind of pricey, but the cut is beautiful. Nordstrom and Buckle always have a few.

Another vote for custom. Failing that, also try Joseph A. Bank. Their commercials used to drive me nuts. Last year I once drove all over San Diego for two days looking for ascots and good fitted shirts. JAB had some of the nicest shirts and in a variety of sizings down to the half-inch.

VK recommended the United Colors of Benetton v-necks. Worth a look.
