Win it: Any one of ratio/clothing’s shirts

August 1, 2012 By Joe | Heads up: Buying via our links may result in us getting a commission. Also, we take your privacy rights seriously. Head here to learn more.

In Person: ratio/clothing custom shirts – $89.00 – $159.00

Consider this week of giveaways a thanks.  Without your readership, your emails, your terrific comments, and your willingness to spread the word, Dappered wouldn’t exist.  The collection of good guys who frequent this corner of the internet is by far the greatest achievement of this website.  Good luck, and once again, thanks a million.

Go full custom and you risk screwing up a measurement and your shirt will be off.  Stick with off the rack and you’ll never get a shirt that’s spot on in either fit or details.  Ratio Clothing’s unique sizing method is the perfect mix of these two.  You get the consistency of the off the rack measurements that you’re used to, in a much, MUCH higher precise form, which also takes into consideration your chest size, preferred length, and body fit.  And you pick the details.


Much more precise, without going overboard and exposing you to self measurement errors.

.
Add on top of that the ability to customize the collar, cuffs, back pleats, placket, and pocket, and you’ll never have to settle on a shirt with a detail you’re not thrilled with.  The quality is top notch.  Fabrics, patterns, and colors cover everything from basics to chambray to gingham.  And they’re made in the United States.

Some of the custom design options Ratio offers.  Click for the full walk through.

There aren’t a lot of companies or brands in men’s style that almost everyone agrees on.  But ratio seems to be one of the rare few that has impressed just about all (see the original in person here).  They’re a splurge, but what you get in return is well worth it.  Forget the fancy house or the fast car.  It’s fair to say you’ve made it when you’ve got a closet full of ratio shirts.

Win it: To enter to win any of ratio’s custom made in the USA shirts, send your first and last name in an email to contests@dappered.com w/ the subject: “ratio”.  One entry per person.  Deadline: 11:59pm E.T. 8/2/12.  Good luck, and thanks to Eric at ratio for providing one of their shirts for Reader Appreciation Week.

UPDATE:  Congrats to Ben B. who won the drawing for the shirt.  Thanks to Eric at Ratio and everyone who entered!

    I’m sure my odds are better by being first in every day… Right Joe? Right?

    I must be second each day, haha.

    Well if first is the worst, and second is the best, I guess that makes me the one with a hairy chest. And I kinda need a shirt, or even better, an Indochino suit to cover that up.

    echoing kyle’s q from yesterday… the quotes around the subject line… keep forgetting em. does that make a difference?

    Their light blue bengal stripe. It would go pretty sweet with that brown Indochino suit you promised me, Joe.

    My ratio clothing shirt as featured on dappered is the best fitting shirt I own. I made a mistake in one my measurements, yet Eric had the shirt remade. Eric is still answering emails personally and it makes all the difference

    Just want to send my thanks to you Joe and the rest at Dappered for
    doing a reader appreciation week. It wasn’t necessary, as you guys continue to generate great content, but it’s much
    appreciated by your readers.

    Nope, you’re good.

    A white and blue stripe shirt would be a great addition to my wardrobe. Not sure which one yet.

    Thank you for doing this give away! Ratio makes a great shirt. My first one just arrived and the fit was perfect.

    Shoes, check. Suit, check. Shirt, check. Ties tomorrow…AND a vintage Porsche on Friday to cement the look.

    There truly is NOTHING like a perfect fitting shirt. Just ask me after I get an off the shelf shirt home and look at myself in the mirror… looking I’m doing a “fat guy in a little coat” dance. Argh!

    Ha, right after I order two more, you’re giving em away. Seriously though, these shirts are nutzo high quality for the price. Just make sure you iron them or take them to the cleaners (at least the pinpoints)

  15. S. Figer says

    August 1, 2012 at 11:03 AM

    I was just about to get one! Hopefully I’ll have two by the end of the month…

    This really is a great treat Joe/Dappered. This week of giveaways cements you as one of my favorite clothing blogs…keep up the good work!

  17. Nathan says

    My buddy ordered a few of these shirts and they were top notch. Definitely a good investment.

    I was wondering if theres a way for you guys being able to send a confirmation email to know if you guys received an email. Would be pretty good. Thanks btw!

  19. Steven Bremer says

    August 1, 2012 at 2:25 PM

    I would like to have the same thing.

  20. Pierce says

    August 1, 2012 at 2:35 PM

    Joe, how do you do this? You could be executive of GQ.

  21. Joe says

    August 1, 2012 at 3:38 PM

    Flattery will get you no extra entries.

  22. Joe says

    August 1, 2012 at 3:43 PM

    Don’t worry guys. Just checked. You’re in.

  23. Aaron J says

    This looks amazing! I have the hardest time finding properly fitting shirts, and will be sure to pick one of these out when I save up some funds.

  24. Arthur says

    August 2, 2012 at 10:47 AM

    Joe, you rock for doing this. Every item is pure class. A big congratulations to the previous winners.

    I own 8 or so Ratio shirts. Can’t say enough good things about them.
