Folded Up Shirt Appreciation

Agreed. Beautiful collar.

I'm not so sure about the Keaton, it's a bit extreme. I've got one, a contrast collar on a dark royal blue body, and the collar is a bit effeminate.

I agree -- it's a bit extreme (for me, at any rate...); guess that's why I wear the few Keatons that I have so rarely -- at most once a month. Nice to have for variety, though....

It probably doesn't help that it's a very contrasting collar.

On a white shirt, I could see trying one though I don't know how much I'd end up liking it.

The problem for me is how ostentatious it looks - I don't think it look particularly effeminate.

Yeah, I see chicks in extreme spread collars all the time.

Since everyone's posting Keatons, here is mine. It's obviously not conservative business dress or an everyday shirt imo - especially w/a contrasting collar - but when you want to make a statement once in a while, it's great with a DB suit.

I've done a great deal of Jantzens in a makeshift Keaton collar but have learned to prefer them with no tie space. Your shirt is beautiful, however. In fact they all are...I love this thread.

Cego (a/k/a Shirtmaven) has the same fabric (Ferno) available for custom shirts. He has it in red/blue, blue/navy (shown), and blue/gold.

Cheers.
