Ditto that, I'm leaning toward the black tartan a bit more though.

Yup, same exact cut. They will feel a little bit slimmer because the fabric is finer, but the actual fit specs are the same.

Man, I can't wait for this. I nearly made this shirt in brown, but the Oxblood was calling me.

They'll be really different. The exploded plaid is going to be seriously bold. I can't wait to see the whole thing made up.

I hear you, it's doing the same for me. Thinking of grey or khaki chinos, indigo or black denim...what a great Fall shirt!

I'm going to get the shirts around 6PM. I'll do the white studio shots tomorrow night and post them in our affiliate thread late tomorrow evening. We'll have the shirts online at 10AM Friday. I'll try to take some quick fit shots Friday morning, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to do it before the shirts go live. But the fit, collar, and pocket will be identical to the collab flannels.

Okay, I got confirmation. Our shirts will be split into two deliveries. For Friday 10AM, we'll launch:

Exploded Plaid Flannel
Black Tartan Flannel
Oxblood Corduroy

Glen Plaid Spread Collar
Purple Stripe Spread Collar
Blue Stripe French Cuff (this is Swiss fabric & RIDICULOUSLY nice if you need a dress shirt)
Blue & Pink Stripe French Cuff

The Buttondown collar shirts (pinpoint oxfords & pima cotton tartans) will go live on Tuesday at 10AM. Sorry for the little delay with those.

Ah, sorry - we'll have all those shirts, but they're coming on Tuesday. The flannels, cord, and dress shirts will go live tomorrow morning. Good choices though!

Sure, they're at the top of yesterday's post:
http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...&postcount=419

These fabrics are pinpoint oxford, so it's a finer and softer fabric than regular oxford. These shirts have a slight sheen, and are less casual than a Gitman vintage oxford.

We made a few. It's one of my favorite shirts. The red tone is really subtle when the shirt is fully made up, and it matches well. If you wash and hang dry it, then it's a great casual shirt. If you iron it or get it pressed, it makes a great dress shirt too. Here it is made up:

^ I posted some fit pics of this back earlier in this thread and can vouch for the burgundy oxford. The shirt is fantastic and as Mike mentioned plays well to different styles and color pairings. I wore it two weeks ago with a tie and dress pants for a meeting and it was money.

Mike - No need for fit pics of the new shirts in my opinion since they're cut standard to your others, but can't wait for the full product shots to see how the patterns came together. The blue pinpoint can't come soon enough.

PS: How is Brooklyn feeling today after last night's game? I'm sure you watched? I think Phillies vs. Yanks should be a great series, and sorry I'm your "enemy" right now, but Lee was in a scary zone last night.
