I've been looking to purchase a couple tattersall (country check) shirts with regular collars, not the button-down variety. I worry that at most of the more obvious places, i.e. Barbour, Orvis, Ben Silver, one is paying more for the particular brand name than for the quality of the shirt. At other places, i.e. L.L. Bean and Lands End, they all seem to be button-down collars which I'm not partial to.

Do any of you have experience with shirts from Cordings, Brockwell of Bakehurst, Hoggs of Fife, or "Joseph Turner" tattersalls? Can you suggest other brands? I'm looking for the best value for the money, not necessarily the least, or most, expensive, something that I can wear with a tie and sportcoat / kilt jacket.

Cordially,

David
