Doing the PGA Tour polo today, untucked. Seeing how that works out. Ordered one of those untuckit shirts on sale plus 20% off.
Definitely going to browse Ex Officio some more, and also found Deo Veritas, which will custom make shirts, based on measurements you send in. So once I find a shirt that works, I can have them make it a little bigger or smaller, etc.

"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important
than one's fear. The timid presume it is lack of fear that allows the brave to act when the timid do not."
I have several Untuckit shirts which drape perfectly over my G19 EDC and somewhat chunky frame. They have worn well over the past year with none of the little holes that some cheaper shirts get from carry sights/flashlights/mags. I have been pleasantly surprised and ready to order many more for summer!

If you determine size by finding EO in a local store, then look online for last years styles if you want to save some coin. If price doesn’t matter you can buy direct and get free shipping over $50, or purchase from a plentitude of retailers (REI, EMS, Backcountry, et cetera).
+1 for Patagonia. The brand is a little crunchy, but I conceal an M9 or G19 under the ones I own pretty well. Lifetime warrantee too

I wear a lot of Jos A Bank traveler dress shirts because I have to dress for an office. I like the traveler shirts in tailored fit as the material is a bit thicker and doesn’t print like lighter technical fabrics can. Plus, they don’t show through like thinner shirts do. You can buy them reasonable if on sale and tailoring to shorten or slim them up is like $15. You generally won’t have a “tactical” or outdoorsy look wearing them either if that’s what you are trying to avoid. If you can pull of more of a Carhartt shop shirt look in your daily activities, then most of those shirts are cut longer and wider too.
I do most of my shopping at J.Crew - their regular cut shirts (and slim cut) are great and high quality. They are more dressy than the outdoor brands but you'd never guess I had anything on me.
Many of my casual shirts are from J Crew as well. I just didn’t mention them since OP said they were looking for more dress shirts type. But I do agree with you as well.
Do you have a Kohl's nearby? Check out their men's clearance area - the 60-80% off section. I've picked up many nice cover garments there including button down shirts by Batick Bay, Van Heusen, Cubavera, Haggar, and their Sonoma brand.
