Ha!  Not to worry - I'm a dyed-in-the-wool large.

I've seen pretty much the same options across the usual range of dealers, but no trace of that buffalo plaid.  You're probably right - it'll show up with retailers' second shipments.

Also of note is the scarcity of what South Willard has listed as a "Natural w/Blue Ticking Stripe."  They're the only store I've seen offering that one so far.

Thanks much, for Kensington's re-post, mike1445.  There are some beautiful shots in there!

And thanks for the info on the ticking stripe shirts, ThomSquared.  Though I'm always partial to blue shirts, something about the one at South Willard has really piqued my interest.

Also Mike, I would jump on that flecked charcoal as it is gorgeous in person and the fabric is unlike anything I've owned by Gitman, that XL is literally the last one they have and they aren't making anymore.

What do you wear the flecked charcoal shirt with? It's grey and I don't have anything in my garderobe that is grey, except for a pair of jeans. I can't get it for $90, used, which is a little bit too much for an used shirt. 

i was hooked on the idea of a grey oxford shirt for a while but the color was always just a bit too close to a light blue oxford that I didn't even feel like I was wearing blue but that my eyes were playing tricks on me. I like the idea of this because its got a greater contrast in the light and dark threads then the flecks add a little character. I think with denim or duck canvas colored khaki would both be good basic looks

Is there any difference between the oxford shirts' fabrics? I have one fine-striped OCBD from MrPorter and one plain coloured ecru shirt from MyHabit. The ecru shirts itches like hell, while the fine-striped shirt from MrPorter is soft against the skin.
