is it just me, or are Todd's shirts REALLY comfortable?

TruckWhatTruck · Post by **TruckWhatTruck** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 3:29 pm

i've been wearing mine all day, and it's fantastic. the cut is perfect, and the material is tough enough without being too heavy. i'm actually considering buying three or four more just to circulate as regular, everyday attire.

am i a lunatic or has anyone else noticed this?

kind of wishing they came in different colors, now...

I agree!

I think I am quite comfortable in Todd's shirt. Yes, I am very comfortable in Todd's shirt.

I just wish he made long sizes. My sleeves aren't long enough, and the waist comes untucked occasioanlly, but the XL is too big in the body without giving me the extra length.

Great shirt...I do all my yardwork in it as well as my gloves. Best way to break them in. As a matter of fact I always do my yardwork in my Indy shirt and pants, then I get in the shower with all of it on. Keeps the stains but gets rid of the sweat and potential smell!

Without a doubt, Todd's shirt is one of the most comfortable items I've ever worn and it looks great, too!

TruckWhatTruck · Post by **TruckWhatTruck** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 5:48 pm

maybe we can all start lobbying Todd to make more colors and longer sizes, so that we can enjoy an indy style shirt for every day of the week...

I'm really glad to hear all of this positive feedback regarding Todd's shirt. I'm seriously considering getting one but the shirt length and it's knack for coming untucked concern me.

understandable reservations, but i have to say, the comfort factor really makes up for them.

also, the shirt doesn't look half bad UNtucked.

For what it's worth, I ordered a large and probably should have got a medium. I'm 5'9", 40 chest, 34 waist. For me a large doesn't have any untucking problems and I had my wife bring the shirt in on the sides. I find that the sleeves are a bit longer than what is SA. Nothing I can't live with, but I wanted to give you a reference.

And if you think about it, that's really the screen accurate way to go. Indy has a hard time keeping his shirt tucked in too!

Thanks for the comparison. I'm 5'10", 42 chest, 36 waist so I think a large should be perfect!

It's really kinda hard to tell what an SA sleeve length is. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only time you ever see Indy wearing his shirt with the sleeves rolled down is in Pankot Palace. There's no way to know what is an SA length for RotLA or LC. As such, I just want a shirt with an SA fit. Meaning, Ford's shirt fit him great in the movies. I want mine to fit me great. And extra inch and a half oughta do it.

I REALLY like mine. And yes, he should offer other colors, I'd be down for a white.

He used to have pictures up in another thread, but the links are broken now. I really liked the cobalt (and olive drab would look good too).

i think anything in earth tones or relatively neutral/toned-down shades would be great.

I might have to look into a Todd's shirt.

I have one of the original WPG shirts and I was really disappointed with it.

Felt like I was wearing a potato chip packet.

unlike the debate with Todd's jackets, the shirt doesn't really have a shortcoming, that i can see. it's more SA than most, great quality and fit, pretty decent color-wise, and HALF the price of an AB! i don't think it can be beaten.

definitely look into it, rob!

Oh' man, TODD's shirt...

What can I say, It's simply fantastic. The structure of the shirt is solid and can take a good beating. The material is comforting to the skin and the shape of the shirt does great things to promote the physical features of one's body.

That totally sounded like a commercial.

I love mine. I wear it to the office on casual Fridays. Everything thinks it's pretty cool although they don't know it's an Indy shirt. I had to go with the XXL because of my broad shoulders and chest. I just wished it was a little longer and tapered more at the waist for more of a form fit look. But, I can't complain. I think Todd makes a great shirt.

It also would be nice if someone offered these in a synthetic material for travel and what not. Like ExOfficio or Royal Robbins clothing. They would dry a lot faster as well.

Todd had this poll about colors, which the pics had shown; I guess he took them down.

BTW I love my Todd's shirt. I understand the shirt is a little short but I guess that's more SA.

Bowie · Post by **Bowie** » Fri Sep 26, 2008 11:10 am

I agree with everyone above! Todd's is by far the the best looking and most comfortable. I have two and could very likely see getting another.

for Todd!

Interesting. My Todd's XL is considerably more form-fitting in the body (i.e., below the chest) than any other XL dress shirt I own. But I concur they could be a bit longer.

been looking for this thread and yes I agree I love my Todds shirt, it's comfortable and works well with me and my job,need to carry stuff so pockets work well with me. I thin I might have to get a couple more.

My shirt is a Wested, and I love to wear it fishing because of the spray, but I have to admit, it isn't the softest thing I've ever worn.

Can anyone with both Wested and Todd's shirts compare them for me?
