The Perfect Shirt Checklist | How To Buy An Amazing Looking Shirt? RMRS Style Videos

About this video

Centeno presents a comprehensive shirt-buying checklist covering over thirty evaluation criteria. He walks through fit considerations including collar, shoulders, torso, sleeves, and cuffs; discusses fabric types, weights, and weaves; and explains shirt style elements like collar types, cuff styles, buttons, pockets, and back pleats. He emphasizes that proper fit is foundational and recommends custom shirts through Tailor Store as a solution for hard-to-adjust elements like armhole height.

Key takeaways

• Centeno argues that fit is the most critical factor in a shirt’s appearance, and recommends specific measurements such as two fingers’ space at the collar and 1.5-2 inches of play in the torso area
• Centeno explains that fabric choice affects both function and formality—he recommends cotton for durability, linen for summer breathability, and notes that synthetic blends offer stretch but require careful ironing
• Centeno recommends paying attention to construction details like stitches per inch (at least 8, ideally 12), reinforced collar bands, and extra buttons as indicators of overall shirt quality
• Centeno suggests that custom shirts are worth the investment because certain fit elements—particularly higher, smaller armholes—are difficult to find or adjust in off-the-rack options
