Burgos makes an excellent shirt. I have had bespoke shirts from several different makers in France, UK, Italy (like many of the contributors to this and other threads). In my view Burgos scores particularly highly in several regards. First, they did the best job of any maker in nailing the rudiments of my pattern first time. The body is cut really well, without cheating by using darts. Second, the level of hand-work in their shirts is impressive; it is quite lovely. Third, Carmen and the team are easy to deal with and understanding (Carmen using email and mobile!). Fourth, the pattern matching, for those bothered, is by far the best I have seen from any maker. Lastly, there is no issue in the range nor quality of shirtings; indeed, I quite like the Spanish fabric that has come in for some criticism elsewhere (clearly, it is not Riva, but it has its place in a shirt wardrobe). They stock loads of other Italian fabric.
It would be remiss of me to not point out that the pyjamas I have bought from Burgos are wonderful also. They are without doubt the best I have ever had. I bought a couple of pairs when I was measured-up in Madrid and have bought another four more recently. Simply fantastic PJs.
