After being out of work for a while I've finally managed to get a new job and realised I could do with some new shirts
Any recommendations on where to buy them? Budget of maybe £15-20 per shirt

Depending on what sort of body shape you are you could consider the 'Next' shirts. Actually pretty decent and a nice general cut.

That will show you how a shirt should fit.

I like my shirts from Next. You can pick them up in your price range.
Got a few from M&S as well.

Get mine from next. Nice material and a decent fit for normal sized people. If you're fat, you're fucked.

I get all my clothes from Jacamo because I'm a man. Oh, and because I can get my XXXXXXXXXXXXL fitting that I need.

Next are good. I always buy the slim fit ones personally. I've tried a few other brands etc, but always find myself going back to them.

Mine are from Moss and T.M. Lewin.
T.M. Lewin ones are better quality, but the Moss slim fit ones (Ventuno 21) fit me better.

Ventuno shirts are too short i find. Either that or my traps are too big.

I used to recommend TM Lewin shirts, then I tried a Charles Tyrwhitt - all over CT nowadays
Same as above on the Ventuno's, struggle to keep them tucked in all day

It's important stuff.
£200 shirt can look worse than a £15 Next shirt if its a terrible fit.

Uh oh, can of worms opened.
There will be people posting in a minutes saying they need tailored as standard cuffs don't fit over their investment watches.

It's actually not unusual for tailored shirts to have very slightly different sized cuffs
