Those don't really exist.

I mean, wait.

Those don't really exist, do they?

The white one is a cutaway. The other two are more moderate spreads.

Best in the biz. Very thick MOP, nice rounded shape, easy to get through the buttonholes, unlike those Altoids that Borrelli uses. Like little precious stones, which I suppose they sort of are.

I voted for the bad one... not because I think you are a liar or that you are shilling for Kabbaz... but because I enjoy being contrary. Enjoy your $600 shirts, I'm going back to sleep on my matress on the floor of my room after I make the last packet of Ramen in my cabinet.

LabelKing will vote for that one too, and probably mafoofan and one or two others.

I do appreciate the vote of confidence from you, though!

The hand shanking of the buttons is outstanding. Cross stitched and wrapped at least four times for each button. Another NY shirt maker will use these buttons if you ask them, but they charge $50 extra for that, and use a parallel stitch with no shank. The threads unravelled pretty quickly.

I'd vote contrary just because of those awful hangers.

Manton,

Can you take some close ups of the sleeve-shoulder joint? and the collar?
