I fell in love with Caliban shirts while living in Europe. Good price, good quality, nice fit and with the exception of a few classic (but a wee bit forward) in terms of style/fabric.

I've not been able to find a good source for them here in New York. Does anybody have any leads either in the real world or online?

There is an Ebay Store by the name of "beverlyhillsbazaar" that always seems to have a lot of New Caliban shirts for sale. Think he has 5 or 6 of them today. I have never had any transactions with this store and am, therefore, unable to give any feedback on reliability etc.

Nice find brmoore.

I have a question about the Caliban shirts. I see the chest measurement of the 16.5 x 35 as 47 inches. It sounds like these shirts might be slightly large throughout the body (and possibly arms). Does anyone know if these are more of a slim fitting shirt or a "regular cut".

Thanks!

I purchased from this store for the past 2 years, and it has good products, great return policy, and customer service by email is good.

I have bought from them without any problems, but others on this thread have had issues (either with them or with the same ebay seller operating under a different name). If you run a search for Beverlyhillsbazaar, I think you will find the threads.

Thanks for all the info guys! Appreciate it. To answer the question on fit I find the regular line to be just fine and I'm pretty skinny. My ideal shirt is a RLBL 15.5 but a regular Caliban in 15.5 feels fine, not too blousy, not too tapered. Give it a try.
