Has anyone got any good options for slim-fitting button-down Oxfords? Don't really wanna go to AA due to comments on here about poor quality.

Cheers.

Laughing out loud nah man I just respond to the thread with personal experience, but the stuff i buy is cheap so i stick with uniqlo, designer stuff seems a bit expensive for me unless they're from TK Maxx Laughing out loud

Uniqlo but I recommend trying it on to see if it fits you, I've had mine for quite some time and there has been no problem regarding quality.

Ended up buying a M and a L in the Polka dot Gitman so before sending the M back, does anyone want it to save themselves on shipping?

I know you get hard over everything Uniqlo, but I 100% agree with you on this.

Looking for sizing advice. If I am an L in a Uniqlo Oxford what size would I be in a Gitman Oxford - L or XL ?

New to the forum but eager to join in a this seemed fitting....

Some great fitting and semi-technical oxfords are coming out of the Outlier camp - blazed cotton (moisture wicking and what not) and cut to move.
http://www.outlier.cc

Garbstore have some unorthodox (read: engineered tailoring) Oxfords harkening back to the early labor days. I think they are on sale for ₤50 or something right now, just checked - they are and are in blue / tan / light gray
http://www.garbstore.com

Another brand that does inhouse stuff only in Camberwell that I can't remember but the prices were solid and construction was flawless - new outfit but doing it right for the UK. I'll update when I remember.
