Added bonus shot. My wife supports my obsession, but says I need to have some fun with it. I found both of these under the tree. Also a little symbolism with the dragons (my birth year).

TC,this is great.I like the collar more than your initial shirts,not that they weren't good. Looking forward to pictures of worn shirts.

Thanks! I agree with you although as a creature of extreme habit some accidental variation isn't necessarily a bad thing. Fit is superb on these. I will post some pics once I've had a chance to break them in.

Its a special run by Grandi & Rubinelli, and will only be released in July 2011. Not available for cut length sales to small timers like us, but the NY bespoke shirtmakers should have it.

I could easily order 6-7 shirts from the wool / cotton series - great stuff. Too bad I'll have to wait a year before I can wear'em.

it is for the fall collection.
I have ordered 15 meters of a few patterns assuming the mill accumulates enough orders to put in to production. There are some nice things in the in stock book, but not that many.

Where did you see these?
Geneva doesn't keep inventory.

Yup - saw these cards at a friend's place (she is a designer). Geneva does have the blue Pronto stock book though, but, as you said, no inventory on hand.

Lot of stuff in Pronto that I like.
