Thanks for the information. The Jos A Bank shirts are great and I have about 20 of them in rotation -- they're my primary on-the-road shirt. But they must be pretty cheaply made as you can usually get them for $20-$25 despite their fake $75+/-list price.

The polos are great too, just picked up a bunch for $20.
