For more than a quarter century, CEGO Custom Shirtmaker founder Carl Goldberg has been custom-making dress shirts for everyday New Yorkers and show business professionals alike. CEGO claims to have the largest selection of international shirting fabrics in the city, but the store is probably better known for its rigorous quality control. You receive a sample shirt two to three weeks following your fitting, and after wearing and laundering it a couple of times, you bring it back for corrections or reconstruction (free of charge) before receiving the final product. CEGO is also known for its lower-than-average prices (starting at around $100 a shirt), which makes its shirts more accessible than the typical bespoke garment.
