looks like it may just be that the right shoulder is significantly more sloped than the left. it's hard to tell from the pics where the sleeve begins.

This might be a record (10 days). Placed the order on the 6th. Got confirmation on the 8th. Received the shirts at my office on the 16th. Great job Ricky!

I just got a shirt in delivered in 10 days. Really nice, except the measurements were not exactly what I ordered. It fits, but is 2 inches longer than I requested. oh well--at least it will stay tucked in.

I ordered two more shirts last night, and they were confirmed this morning when I got up. Credit card was also charged.

Maybe they are becoming more reliable.

I got a extra fine cotton Jantzen 8058, HKD$360, White Super Compact Poplin with Blue Medium, Gingham,100's 1 ply,100% European Cotton.

It was a lighter blue than I expected, almost a sky blue.

it's very smooth and soft, not very thick. Makes a very nice spring shirt. Best thing I did was get "soft" for the collar interlining. It is much less stiff than my other jantzen collars, but it stands up fine. It's actually quite a nice collar

They seem to have revamped the website again, changing the "latest material" page to "Pure Cotton" and updating the pictures/descriptions.

The pictures still suck, though.

Can someone from Ontario, Canada share how much it cost them to get a Jantzen shirt shipped to their home/ office?

I guess the ~$58 cost is in USD

If anyone can share the info that will be great!

Last time I ordered two shirts it worked out to be basically $8.50 CAD per shirt for shipping - and I would guess that Toronto would be the same as here in Vancouver.

This makes me a tad concerned. I ordered on the 5th, got confirmation on the 6th, but have heard nothing since. Still totally within a reasonable amount of time, but still it has me wondering. I only ordered one shirt, so maybe that makes me less of a priority.
