This is still what amounts to the sample shirt, with one round of alterations.

I think three hole buttons, though, went with the wind except maybe for Budd.

Sorry to say, but I'm not from The States. I ordered them straight from the man himself.

Do you order directly from Naples?
Can Finamore send shirts abroad if ordered directly from the Naples shop?

Why would he refuse? What did you ask him? Did you ask him to copy something? There must be a reason.

No, I didn´t asked that. But it´s very strange that he did a spare collar for me , and then didn´t sent any simple samples of cotton to choose the right tone. Perhaps the reason is that he would like to have me measured for him or something like that? To avoid the customer then " ruin " his name if the shirt comes odd due to the measures that the customer gives him? That is too much CSI ... Perhaps I pushed him too much and I didn´t like him... I would like to know.

Yes .
Yes they do.

Moscow has a couple of stores that carries Finamore. Maybe it's easier to get them in Moscow other than going to Napoli.
Andrea travels to Moscow once in a while. You could send him an email for the dates he'll be visiting.

I'd want to give you the specs, but I don't think I can give the accurate measurement for the angle in which the collar is cut.
If anyone could tell me how to measure this I'd be happy to give you the specs.
For now all I can give you is the collar height (4,5 cm), collar points (9 cm) and the
spread between collar points (16 cm).
