Why are the size numbers here different from the Charles Tyrwhitt site?

Some people have emailed me asking why the numbers on my site appear to be different from those on the Charles Tyrwhitt site. For example, on the Charles Tyrwhitt site the image below shows that the 15.5 inch collar for the Classic Fit has a chest circumference of 43.5 inches. On my site I have the chest circumference at 45.5 inches.

I think my numbers are correct and Charles Tyrwhitt has a confusing layout on their website. The reasons are explained below.

First, look at the image below  and the first table, "Your Body Measurements" and the first row "Your Collar". Compare that to the second table in the image below: "Product Measurements" and the row "Collar Size". You will see that the sizes are not lined up with each other. "Your Collar 14 inch" is above "Collar Size 14.5 inch". My data is consistent with Charles Tyrwhitt website if you use the "Your Collar" data.

Second I measured some additional Charles Tyrwhitt shirts to compare my data with actual garment measurements. As you can see from the pictures below, my measurements are consistent with the data on my site and how I think the Charles Tyrwhitt data should be interpreted.

Charles Tyrwhitt review – cuffs and collar manufacturing

All shirt manufacturers I know of insert an interlining into the cuffs and collars of their shirts to make them more robust. Charles Tyrwhitt use semi-fused interlinings, which means that their collars and cuffs have an interlining which is fused with the cotton of the shirt.

The image below shows a Charles Tyrwhitt shirt I took apart. The image shows the fused interlining (1). The interlining is separate from the material on the inside of the cuff (2) and fused to the outside (3) of the shirt cuff. This is called semi-fused as the interlining is only fused to the outside. If the interlining was fused to the outside and inside it would be called fully fused.

The image below shows the collar of the same Charles Tyrwhitt shirt. The same construction technique is used: the interlining (1) is separated from and not fused with the back (2), but is fused to the front (3) of the collar.

Charles Tyrwhitt review – history

In 1986 Charles Tyrwhitt started as a mail order business. Nicholas Charles Tyrwhitt Wheeler started the firm while studying geography at Bristol University. Before focusing on shirts, Nicholas Wheeler started businesses involving Christmas trees, photography and shoes. His shoe business originally involved tracing around customers' feet and faxing the result to a factory in India. The company was started with £8,000 of inheritance, a bank loan and profits from the sale of an Aston Martin (Nick bought it for £17k and sold it a year later for £100k). From 1986 it took eleven years until the first shop was opened on Jermyn Street, London. Today Charles Tyrwhitt has stores in the UK, the USA and France.

Charles Tyrwhitt review – where are the shirts made?

It's difficult to find good information on where Charles Tyrwhitt shirts are made and the label on the most recent shirt I bought doesn't say anything.

Nor does this label, on a shirt I looked at in March 2013.

The shirt fabric originally came from Lancashire in England and the shirts were made in Essex. Then production moved to Hong Kong. The website doesn't give any detailed information on where the shirts are made, but says that products are made in the China, Czech Republic, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Italy, Malta, Peru, Philippines, Sri Lanka,Tunisia and the UK.  This article says the shirts are made in India, Romania, Peru and other places. Charles Tyrwhitt shirts are also made by Esquel, which has production facilities in China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Mauritius and Sri Lanka.
