It's basically a small point collar. The medium poplin I have for sale in my signature has one; there is a close up photo in the thread if you want to see what if looks like with the top button buttoned.

Does this fabric look familiar?

Also for those Gant Rugger fans, what about this?

I have a large neck, wide shoulders slim waist. I am 184cm, 186 pounds. I like my shirts to be reasonably trim through the body. Usually shirts than fit me nicely in the body won't do up at the collar and/or have shoulders that are too small.

For instance in Brooks Brothers ESF, I will buy 16 or 16.5 collar size but then need to get the back darted fairly heavily. I am usually a size 40 suit.

From the measurements page and what is said here about the fit, an M would be right in everything except the collar (15.5"), which won't do up if I were to wear an M. On the oxfords, this might be a problem, but not so much on the dish towel. Ideally I think i'd get the L collar (16.5") and the M body shape!

So - do you guys think M or L is the way to go? Do the oxfords fit any differently from the casual shirts such as the dish towel?

Quoting an earlier post of mine because I received my Dishtowel shirt today. Fits nicely, and the collar even does up which means its at least 16"/16.5".

The casual shirts, or at least this one, must definitely fit a bit looser than the oxfords. Think I would get an L if I buy one of those.

Perhaps this isn't uncommon with oxford cloth - BB Subpima Oxfords definitely fit about half an inch to an inch smaller in the neck than their regular shirting line IMO.

I would go with the M if you don't plan on doing up the collar, L otherwise. Gitman shirts are pretty casual anyways, so I would just go with the M so you don't need to tailor an L

I count 7 buttons--guessing it's a small.

I'm 6'1' 35" waist, 44" chest and no way I could fit M. L is slim on me.

Unless you meant a 38" chest, them M may even be big.

If he indeed has a 38 inch chest, the M will be big, no doubt. If you have a 38 inch waist, the large should fit you perfectly as I am also 6'1 with a 38 inch waist.
