Get shirt stay thats posted above, not sure where in Trinidad sells them, but it works well...the Y shaped one is good, but sometimes comes loose, there is another that acts like a belt and secures ur shirt nicely, but u have to have a slim waist for it to work well. I have to get a new one had both for a while now, which I got as a gift some years ago...so looking for a replacement now

Amazon for it bro.
I never had an issue with the Y shaped ones and I've been using them for years.

Dan just get a tailored fit. If it moving then it's because some dimensions of the pants isn't suited to you.

Recommendations of good tailors and shirt stores.

Bought two shirts by van heusen same cut but both fit different. The other issue I had was that the colours faded after a few months.

Van Heusen quality varies enormously depending on where it is assembled ... There are even locally assembled ones now.

Local assembled Van Heusen is crap. don't buy.
If you get the US ones somewhere then go through.

I have noticed that the VH shirts sold locally have changed quite drastically.
The materials they use to make it are very poor quality.
The only way they stay smooth is with heavy use of spray starch and when ironing them they give off a chemical scent that reminds me of tar/pitch/petroleum.

I bought a VH about 3 years ago and I ended up spoiling the shirt when some other clothing colours ran in the washing machine.
Went back to the exact store last year and bought the exact shirt, only to realise that the material is crap (as described above) and it was the exact same shirt I bought from the exact store 2 years before. I bought some other VH shirts and the majority of them are made from poor quality materials, even though they are labelled with the same Polyester/Cotton.

I think consumer affairs really needs to get involved here.

Wish I kept my receipt.
