The great white north, eh?
I don't know if there used to be a thread for clothing & fashion complaints, but if there was it seems to have faded away.

I either have a big neck or narrow shoulders. If I get a top that doesn't have shoulders draping down onto my arms, the fit around the neck often seems off.

I wear a lot of golf shirts for casual wear, as they seem to look better on me than t-shirts do. But on any that have a shorter 'V' in the neck I end up getting the problem shown in the picture--a hole forms at the right corner of the bottom of the stitching--obviously a stress point. And when I wear button up shirts, even if the collar fits OK I find that having only the collar button undone is uncomfortable with most shirts, I need to undo one more button, which is an awfully casual look.

I wish I understood the proportions issue causing the problem well enough to be able to better eyeball clothes to figure out which will have this problem less than others.

(ETA: you can see in that pic that the shoulder seam is down onto my arms, but I still had that problem with the neck. :doh: )
