Dress shirts with more substantial collars (UK <£100)
Hi, I'm after some striped dress shirts but I most affordable options in the UK (TM Lewin etc) have fairly small, cutaway collars which I hate. I prefer a more substantial point collar (swallow collar perhaps?).
The most ideal collar style I've found in London is Fursac (pictured) but they set you back about £180 a shirt which is a lot. Does anyone know any cheaper, UK-available brands which make dress shirts with a collar up to these standards?
Also, I notice that the Fursac shirt collar has an edge that curves somewhat to get a stronger point, does this shape have a name that other manufacturers might use?

I think "forward point collar" might be your search term for these?
Couple of examples:
