Never heard of Trunk Club? Check out parts one and two of this review series, then come back and read part three.

In the first part of my Trunk Club review, I explained what the company does and expressed concern over whether the system would work for shorter, smaller guys. Based on reviews from other bloggers and the fact that the clothing industry hates doesn’t cater to short men, I had very little hope for Trunk Club.

Part two of the series showcased the clothes from the first trunk, which were generally too big and baggy for me. But I said I’d give Trunk Club at least two chances, and that’s what I did.

After reviewing my feedback, Lisa (my Trunk Club personal stylist) packed up a second trunk and sent it my way. I had requested more button up shirts (in different colors and slimmer fits) and spring jackets. I figured pants were a lost cause since all Trunk Club pants have a 34? inseam, which is way too long for any man 5’8? or under.

Unfortunately, Lisa couldn’t find any jackets in stock that would work for me, so she packed the second trunk with three button up shirts, one polo and a sweatshirt. Let’s take a look at how everything fit:

Much to my surprise, this extra small Gant button up fits well. But I’m not keeping it because it still needs alterations to fit perfectly. As with most off the rack shirts, the sleeves need to be shortened. This wouldn’t be a big deal if I found this at a secondhand store or bought it at a discount off eBay.

But just on principle alone, I won’t pay the tailor tax on a $125 shirt. I can get a custom shirt for less.

Let’s take a look at the next shirt:

This is pink Oxford is a J. Press extra small. It’s a nice shirt. It feels great and is obviously well made, but it’s billowy on me, especially in the back. For that reason, I’m putting it back in the trunk.
