Rick,
I hope you consider making some dress shirts with the Italian Semi Spread Collar. For many of us, the regular semi spread collar's points don't stay under the lapels of a jacket.
I'm glad SM brought up the tie explanation
I personally would rather see the inventory dollars tied up with the great new shirting creations, and expanding the suits/jackets/trousers.
There is a lot of tie companies out there and tie deals to be had on the secondary market.
But there isn't a lot of people who make as good of a shirt as you, OTR or MTM for the $.
Guys, we're developing Desklooms for the OCBD program. These are essentially sample colours in the fabric for future orders.
What colours do you want to see down the pipe so we can get them developed.
Thanks.
Ont the topic of the Uni Stripe OCBD, some were expecting them to be available in March. Initially, we had cloth from a supplier ready to go, but then we started getting the feedback on our new OCBD cloth, which we developed exclusively for our use, compared to the cloth that was simply picked up as stocks.
The new fabric is a much, much higher quality and we realized that the OCBD program was quickly becoming an anchor product for us. In that regards, we decided we have to keep the quality consistent. The older cloth had some issues of shrinking irregularly and in some cases with stripes bleeding of colour and availability was very spotty.
Because of this, we cancelled the cloth we were going to use and opted to run our own cloth, the brushed oxford. Cloth typically takes 60 days to Mill and then 30 days to produce the garments. This is the reason we have pushed the Uni Stripes back. We have to deliver the best product and experience possible to our customers, and the older cloth was not cutting it.
Hope that explains the delay in the Uni Stripe Oxfords.

Here is the challenge for our brand. We're in Canada and still 80% of our sales are in Canada. A $60 - $70 USD tie is about $80 - $90 CAD, which is pretty much way higher than what our base of customers will pay, with the exceptions of a few.

The last of my new custom shirts. This was suppose to be the same pattern as my burgundy uni stripe OCBD from yesterday, but the sleeves are considerably longer on this one.
I really like the collar. It fits nicely under my jacket and is wide spread the way I like. The collar has a light lining, but the neck band is too stiff in my opinion.
