I was looking for quality shirts for my husband. Ones that withstand a washing once a week without wear, color fading or wrinkling terribly. I had heard that Paul Federicks clothing is of better quality that Joseph Banks or Brooks Brothers. My husband likes to purchase and wear quality cloths especially that he is an executive seeking an new job.
I found through another website that they were offering their shirts B1G1 free and their white cotton pin shirt with free monogram for $20 plus shipping if the buyer were a new customer. I ordered a white and blue checkered and watermelon colored dress shirt. My husband ordered the white dress shirt with his monogram.
We were impressed with the quality of the three shirts. The are made of very solid material and the seams were clearly made very well. The monogram was very clean and the shirt was repackaged so the monogramed cuff could easily be seen. Each shirt is 100% cotton.
Let me state now that Paul Federick's average dress shirt cost is almost $50. This store is moderately expensive to shop.
Ordering is very very easily and took very little time. It was very easy to establish an account to check on the shipping.
The items were processed and shipped quickly. They send their packages through USPS so expect for some wait time until your merchandise arrives.
The shirts initially seem of high quality. While they seem to wear somewhat well and seem durable, they wrinkle to no end. No matter how much we steamed and ironed these shirts, they still were very wrinkled. We decide to take them to a dry cleaner. While the two shirts I purchased him came out 99% wrinkle free, his white shirt had to go back for another round of pressing. These shirts have not held up well in travel and we are constantly ironing them.
These shirts are not better than Brooks Brother. They are just a hassle. Spend the extra $30 or so and get Brooks Brothers. They wear better, do not wrinkle nearly as much as the Paul Federick's shirts and you will spend much less time on your dress shirts
