FS: NWT Borrelli Shirts in many sizes, colors, and styles

Thread Starter 
Here are a bunch of NWT Borrelli shirts. A few different sizes and a few Royal Collections thrown in as well. I will combine shipping for multiple purchases. I've just given the basics, as I don't need to go on and on about how great Borrelli shirts are. Please let me know if you have any questions about any of these items. Updated to clear up any confusion over sleeve length. The sleeves are measured two ways: from the point of the shoulder with the shirt laying flat to the end of the cuff and then from the middle of the shoulder to the end of the cuff, which is the more traditional measurement. Sold shirts have been deleted. Size 14.5/37 Chest: 21 Sleeve: 26/35.5 Peach color Retail: $370 $125 shipped Size 15/38 Chest: 22 Sleeve: 26/35.5 Retail: $400 $125 shipped Size 15.5/39 Chest: 22.75 Sleeve: 24.25/33.75 (note the shorter sleeve length) Royal Collection Double Cuffs Retail: $595 $175 shipped Size 15.5/39 Chest: 22.75 Sleeve: 26/36 Double button collar Retail: $415 $135 shipped Size 16/41 Chest: 24.5 Sleeve: 26.75/36.75 Button-down collar Retail: $375 $125 shipped Size 17.5/44 Chest: 26.25 Sleeve: 27/37.5 Royal Collection 60% cotton/40% linen Retail: $590 $175 shipped

Are these slim-fitting or a more standard cut? Can you post measurements for the 14.5" shirts and the 15" shirts?

Are those second measurements the sleve length? As in the first shirt is a 15 neck/38 inch sleve?? I am a 15/34 and I have fairly long arms. It's hard to imagine someone with 4 inch longer arms. If that is right, that is a shirt cut for a very tall skinny dude. If the sleves were shorter I would be interested in some of these.

15" is the US neck size; 38 cm is the EU neck size.

It also corresponds with american suit sizes. 15" neck US = 38 cm EU neck = 38 suit US.

I'd like to know this as well. Also, if the neck sized run one way or the other (tight or loose for their stated measurement).

Updated to reflect sleeve and chest measurements for all of the shirts. I'm assuming that these shirts were all made for the American market. While they are not slim fit shirts, I don't find them overly billowy. I find them to be fairly trim in the chest with high arm holes, but slightly looser in the waist. The neck sizes seem to run about 1/4 to 1/2 inch larger than the sizes listed on the shirts. I hope this answers everyone's questions, and I hope I've responded to everyone's PMs. Please let me know if there are any more questions.

I have some of those exact shirts from the Borrelli Boutique in NYC. They are from Spring of this year. The retail is a bit higher on the Exclusive fabric ones, I know I paid full retail for some DOH. I have the 15.5 Blue with green stripes exclusive and it was euro cut. Not sure of your source but there is a good chance they are Brook cut which is cut slimmer then the American market but not as slim as the euro market. It is sold exclusively in the boutique or a modified version in Bergdorf Goodman that is between brook and American cut. Hope this helps. Some great deals on VERY recent collection goods.

Just a quick question about sleeve sizes. Could you "translate" sleeve sizes on the 15.5/39 shirts. I am slightly short in arms and need a 33" sleeve. Really gorgeous pieces!

The 26 inch sleeves translate to about a 35.5 inch sleeve length. It's a fairly easy alteration for a tailor to shorten the sleeves by a few inches.

Just to clear up any confusion on the sleeve length, I've posted both the length from the point of the shoulder to the end of the cuff AND the sleeve length from the middle of the shoulder, which is the sleeve length people are probably more familiar with. I hope this is more helpful for everyone curious about sleeve length.

Hi there, first post for me. So I could not PM you.

I'm interested in the 15.5/39 light purple shirt. Is it still available? If so, are you willing to ship it to Canada? How much total? Thanks!
