Top 10 Best Selling Men’s Shirt Brands in The World

Suit up–it’s time for a look at the 10 best selling men’s shirt brands in the world. Do men have style? We’re about to find out.

As a lover and wearer of men’s clothing, I can understand why you clicked this article. For me, brand will always take a backseat to fit–still, the best is the best.  I love the simplicity and clean lines of “men’s” clothes. What are gendered pieces of fabric anyway? What is a “boy’s hat”–as the Park Slope Parents’ of yore once asked. What is gender even? I don’t know but when she finds out Katie Couric is gonna tell us, so don’t worry about it.

I love suits, tuxes, shirts, ties, and all of the accessories that go with them. What’s not to love about a tie clip? It does exactly what it’s supposed to do, provide form and function. I like well-designed clothing, but practical always wins out. Whereas when I have perused “women’s” clothing it always seems extraneous, full of extra fabrics, layers, buttons, bells, whistles and other items of panache.

Traditional or stereotypical women’s fashion is generally more diverse than men’s. While men have shirts only categorized as short sleeve, long sleeve, collared, V-neck, and crew neck, women have tops classified into tank, tankini, strappy, halter, sleeveless, turtle neck, boat neck, half sleeve, 3/4 sleeve, empire cut, collared, bare back, and so so so much more. Because there are as many styles to choose from in general when it comes to menswear, or at least ready-to-wear menswear, men can often turn to brands to base what they want to buy. There is less fluctuation in general.

You might think that the most popular shirt brands will automatically be part of this list. Popularity is not a guarantee for selling well in the fashion industry, and there is no single known formula for a fashion brand, or anything, to sell like hotcakes. Also, WHAT are hotcakes and where can you buy them? I have never seen hotcakes on sale anywhere. This expression must be updated. Perhaps, sell like iPhones?

Shirt prices range from bespoke handmaid shirts costing hundreds of dollars to 3-pack t-shirts from a discount store. One might take the angle that affordable shirt brands would dominate this list, considering they sell more than the expensive ones.  That is certainly the method we used to compile this list.

In looking for the top-10 best selling men’s shirt brands in the world, we only have to look at one angle, their sales, sourced from Forbes. We also sourced data from Complex and eBay. Data from these websites were averaged according to the listed rankings.
