Hi Kostas I too have ordered 2 more striped BD in Canclini Squires60 fabric which I’m really looking forward to receiving
Very happy with Apposta and their service
Agreed! I even became their affiliate partner on my blog, that's how impressed I was with everything. Good service, good shirts, nice people. Let us know how they end up!

Would you mind explaining your term “perceived weight“ in your fabric definitions please And is there any correlation between this and sheer or the fabrics weft and warp
thanks
The perceived weight is how we interpret the fabric weight, in order to portray its characteristic as close as possible. The weft and warp of a fabric is not a description of it's weight, but it's weave.

My shirts arrived today. Love the turquoise linen. Here’s a very quick pic. It feels the shirt is a bit longer, I very slightly also increased my sleeves length (like 0.1 inches) compared to my previous one, it might feel slightly longer on the pink poplin (haven’t tried yet) but my idea was that it will shrink about 0.5 inches after washing a few times.

Behold Kostas “Tommy Vercetti” ha! I love the color.

Love the colour very vibrant which fabric did you go for and did you opt for the Regular button down
I go for 83cm length which is more than enough for me at 6ft tall

I chose the "Shirt Linen Zephyr Italian linens" and it's pretty spot on like the picture. I chose the regular button down yes. The length was about 79 cm and I am 1,79 cm tall.

They also fixed a shoulder problem I had where the fabric slightly bunched up on my neck and now it's gone and saved in my profile. Great service. Took a week more than the planned delivery date but I don't care, they are excellent.

Hidden button down collar shirts are fastened with small discreet buttons.

Great looking collar! I really need to sort measurements for my first shirt from them (although who knows when we’re headed back to the office!)

Here's my turquoise linen BD. I love it and have been wearing it 2-3 times a week now. Glad to be their partner/affiliate on my blog. Their shirts are phenomenal.

Could I suggest that you add the spread measurement between the collar points in your collar styles section of your website
I think this would help greatly when trying to decide which collar style to go for
Thanks

Just another heads up for Apposta
Purchased 3 more shirts during their 20% offer Canclini and Thomas Mason fabrics and I’m really pleased with the fabric and finish
Some how I managed to get my shirt profile right first time so it’s now too easy to choose the fabrics I like and get the correct fit
