    Nobody locally carries men's shirts without button cuffs anymore!  When did that happen?  FH needs to show off the cufflinks I got him.

    Where oh where online can I find a nice, ivory men's shirt with real cuffs before 11/27?

    Bees, I know you can help me!

    @Meowkers:

    We hit all of the local dept stores, Macy's etc & Men's Wearhouse, Brooks Bros, etc.  Unless you want a white shirt for a tux, no French cuffs!

    Brooks said they don't carry French cuffs anymore but they could make one!  WTH?

    Brooks Brothers has great, non-iron shirts. They run sales periodically, and you can order online (although an outlet will have the best prices). They can be pricey, but they really last and the absolutely never have to be ironed. My FI wears dress shirts pretty much every day and often wears cuff links. ::love::

    Other retailers that carry shirst with french cuffs: Jos. A. Bank, JC Penney, Mens Wearhouse.

    @sassy411: That's crazy.

    Brooks Brothers French Cuffs

    Website has free standard shipping on orders over $200. But that probably won't get there in time. I'd just order them online and pay for faster shipping.

     ETA: Just saw you said you wanted Ivory. That might be harder to find. White is easy. Other solid colors, like blue, are easy. So are stripes or other patterns. But I hardly every see ivory.

    that's insane.  FI almost exclusively wears french cuff shirts, (he loves cuff links) and we've never had problems finding them.  Where are you located?

    seriously, try nordstrom rack.  they have tons.

    they had french cuffs at macy's in a box, but they are only in standard sizes so we went to men's wearhouse and bought theirs + extensive tailoring. it was really expensive so i wouldn't suggest it unless you can't find it anywhere else!

    @Meowkers:

    I wish we had a Nordie's Rack here--we're in Palm Springs.  I think because this is a golf, resort type place, the retailers don't stock dressier stuff.
