Calvin KleinMen's Dress Shirt Slim Fit Non Iron Stretch Solid
B**R
A very nice spread collar dress shirt that's a true "slim fit" for me.
I'll give you some background info on me before I talk about the shirt. Hopefully that let's you judge if the fit will work for you or you need to size up or down.I'm 6'0" tall and 202 lbs with a fairly muscular, athletic build (44" chest, 33" waist) and low belly fat / no gut. I've always worn a 16.5" neck in a dress shirt with a 34/35 sleeve. I started wearing "slim fit" shirts about 10 years ago when I became aware they were available so, that's what I was looking for.It was time to replace my white dress shirts. I like the Calvin Klein brand in general but..... My experience with the brand has been that the "slim fit" shirts I bought from them 10 years ago were a long way from a slim fit. They were loose and baggy at the waist. The arm holes were like a regular fit shirt. And the sleeves were loose and baggy. I can't tell any difference from those shirts and a regular fit shirt. They are both too baggy on me. I've got a half dozen of them that I never wear.But I do like the styling and fabric quality of Calvin Klein shirts. And this shirt has 4% spandex for a little stretch + wrinkle resistance. And the product listing said all the right things about higher armholes, tapered sleeves, and a taper from the chest to the waist. What the hell, worst case scenario would be I end up returning it. So I ordered one.I'm very happy with the shirt. A 16.5 34/35 fits me perfectly. The spread collar styling is exactly what I was looking for. The armholes are actually high, the sleeves are actually tapered, and there is a visible taper from the chest to the waist. My 44" chest fits with no pulling or stretching at the buttons. The waist is comfortable but not baggy. The fabric is a high quality cotton poplin that isn't very see through for a white dress shirt. The spread collar is perfect. Very versatile with or without a tie.Also, I like the fact that this shirt isn't treated with the trendy "stain shield" stuff. That tends to make the cotton fabric shiny like polyester in every shirt I've seen that uses it. Basically making a nice cotton shirt look like polyester. I'll take my chances with stains and a bottle of Clorox.This is not a skinny shirt for super thin guys. And it's not a regular fit shirt for guys packing some extra weight and a gut. It's best for a fit, athletic build with low body fat. A V-shaped torso. For that body type, you get a near perfect, almost tailored fit.One note, this is a traditional dress shirt as far as length goes. It's meant to stay tucked in with dress pants or a suit. This is NOT something you want to wear untucked unless you don't mind looking like you're wearing a dress. If you're looking for a shirt you can wear tucked or untucked, this ain't it. The spread collar style really isn't right for the untucked look either in my opinion.Well, I liked the shirt and the price and the shirt enough to order a second one the day after the first one arrived.Hope this helps you make a decision.EDIT 2/15/2025: I've washed and worn the 2 shirts I bought once so far. This is an update regarding wrinkle resistance. There is none, LOL. These wrinkle like any traditional cotton dress shirt. They are wrinkled enough out of the dryer to make ironing mandatory. And after about 6-7 on a night out, the wrinkles were plentiful. That's surprising because in other shirts I own with spandex content it provides stretch but also helps prevent wrinkles. Not with this shirt.With that said, I'm still happy enough with the fabric quality, styling, and fit that I'm not too disappointed. But wrinkle resistance is nice. I have some shirts that can go from the dryer straight to wearing. And others that require a very quick light ironing. These shirts require ironing, period, no exceptions. I even ran them back through my dryer on a "steam refresh" cycle that's supposed to help minimize wrinkles. Nope. They still needed ironing.

Nice fit and overall quality
Very nice fit, at least for my body. It doesn't wrinkle much. The material is not too thick, but not even too thn. Overall very good quality.

Not non-iron and not slim fit neither stretch
The materials are ok, but all three reasons I chose it for were all inaccurately described. I wanted a non-iron, slim fit shirt with stretch fabric . However, the shirt I received remains wrinkled after going through the dryer and requires quite a bit of ironing. The fit is not slim at all, neither stretch. Maybe there are different lots. Yes it's a good looking shirt, but be aware -- this shirt is not non-iron, not slim fit, neither stretch.

Slim fit is good for larger builds
Good quality fabric. Not too slim.

Came in with the sleeves ripped
I had better expectations of Kelvin Klein, but these came in with the sleeves ripped.I had a business trip that I had to prepare for. So I prepared a month ahead and bought these shirts a month ahead of the trip. I didn't open the shirt until the meeting.To my surprise, the sleeves were ripped up. I had no choice but to wear it since it was the morning of. I felt awkward and unprofessional.The refund period was over and I couldn't return it. I will reconsider before buying these.It may fit but the tailor did a very very bad job.

Great shirt.
Love the fit and quality of these shirts. I’d buy more if they had more colors.

Served its purpose. Tapered cut for broader shoulders with a slimmer waist
Fits great on my guy. Hes 6ft, had broad shoulders with an athelic build so hes needs a slim fit or else the waist area is swimming since he requires a 17.5 inch neck with a 34/35 sleeve...extreme slim fits never are quite right...the slim fit is tapered enough to look flattering but also comfortable for him to work in and move around.I use for work for mens wearhouse and this is a very popular shirt among a variety of builds and is well made. Hes tried a few brands and calvin klein, along w pronto uomo and Kenneth cole are very good but we always seem to return to the calvin klein collection...they offer multiple white dress shirts, using different stiching, collars, and cuts to offer style, professionalism, and comfortHe does have to use shirt tail garters to keep the shirt from popping out from being tucked under his belt(bending over, lifting, etc). This shirt breaths well and is cotton...wash and dry...if wrinkled...spray some water and get the shirt damp and pop it into the dryer for 5 mins to remove wrinkles...or hang in ur bathroom as u take a hot shower...the heat will help remove some of the wrinkles
