I bought one from Lance recently, and the quality looked about par with other Finamore shirts I've ordered from him. Can't comment on fit as I didn't try it on. Ended up sending it back because it doesn't have removable collar stays-- something you might want to consider before ordering if that would bother you as much as it does me.

Ah, thanks for pointing that out about the collar stays. I was about to buy one of those shirts, but you've saved me from having to return it.

Given that the "usual" Finamore shirts are made by Andrea Finamore, I cannot help but wonder whether there is any connection at all between the "usual" Finamore and Fabio Finamore.

I was a bit interested in Lance's stock, too, but I really don't like sewn in collar stays as it removes the opportunity to fiddle around with the stays to get the ideal collar roll...

Okay, maybe I'm being an idiot, but do the Fabio Finamore shirts lack any collar stays or do they have collar stays that are not removable (sewn in).

The one I received had collar stays, but sewn in, so not removable.

Single yoke is normal in high-end Italian RTW shirts. As I understand it, split yokes are a bit of a marketing gimmick in RTW, one the English swear by. Plastic buttons, on the other hand, well... not so impressive. How's the fit?
