So when you say
a package of four shirts that we can mostly all agree upon
do you mean that each person who goes in on the group buy would receive one of each shirt? Or are you suggesting that you would only buy four styles, and we can pick and choose from those four styles? Lel, you can look at zissou's profile to get his measurements. Actually, users asking for each other's measurements when this information is typically provided in user profiles is a pet peeve of mine. Nothing personal.

I'm guessing I'm between L and XL. I'll take a detailed look at the swatches tonight to see if I really am interested in this group buy.

Sorry I meant measurements as in actual chest size, they give me a better feel than "I wear a Medium/38".

so every size is basically skin tight?

Yes. I really don't want to get into sending one shirt here and one shirt there. Each purchase = four shirts. Everyone gets the same shirts.

Lel- I have an actual chest measurement of 38". I would post very detailed measurements of the shirts once I got them.

Looks like it, unless you are a very small person and buy an XL. I am guessing they are like the typical ribbed shirts- quite slim, but expand a lot. I will verify this with the samples.

Here is a Japanese website that sells them, but the pictures aren't great. A 3-pk of the longsleeve shirts is $60...

Looks like pretty nice knit shirts. I'd jump on board with this if we're doing a large order.

I won't order samples until I get the swatches, which they are sending me now. Just to let you guys know, I will be out of town Thurs-Thurs, so I won't have much to tell you for a little while.
