tfw you win shirts and worry you should have waited for the Shopify drop to go live. But I guess Eidos is worth a premium.

Also, im proud to say we are close to a million page views! If anyone can get a screengrab of it at exactly 1,000,000 and post it here, ill send you a free tie.

Between digging through 5 year old threads to find a golden egg and watching your view-count, I'm not sure what my life has become. Oh, if 18 year old me were to know the adventures that would follow...

Anyone who ordered the ochre herringbone slub summer wool Hertlings in 38 or 40 who regrets that decision and wants to get rid of them let me know. I've worn the olive ones twice now and absolutely love them. I wish I had these in 5 different colors. Ochre was sold out before I thought to order them.

Looking forward to measurements on the shirts coming up.

ok... shirt came saturday, finally got around to some quick pics and fit. First off, Shirt is by Oriali Firenze.


As you can see, details are nice.... MOP buttons, great color, and the fabric is soft as a babys ass.

Now, for fit...im 6'2, 200lbs. Heres how it looks on me...

Pros: nice details for this level of shirt. and the collar shape is probably the shining star of the shirt. Ill put the fabric as a pro...its very soft. feels great..but wrinkles like a mofucker.

Cons: fit is a smidge baggier than i like in the chest.

All in, for $75 and under, (assuming the pricepoint) its a damn good purchase. Any gripes i might have would be easily mitigated by picking the details myself. (only gripe is i rarely wear french cuffs these days)

THANKS A MILLION TO SPOO! looking forward to the sale going live. No brainer of a purchase.

Okay, so, as I've already stated, I received my shirt a couple of days ago. I received the Alexander Uomo shirt, which was the same one @Caustic Man received. He offered a great review and he understands the details related to tailoring/fabrics/fit better than I do, so I'd suggest looking at his as well. The construction is great for the price point. No complaints whatsoever. There are good details such as nice, thick buttons (even though they're plastic), nice stitching, and a great collar. The fit, even though on the slim side is not at all skinny.

This is always exciting.

Darts to slim up the body, but again, definitely not a super slim fit.

And some photos of the shirt on me. For reference, I'm 6'4" and 270 lbs. I normally wear a size 17 (43) in regular sizing (Sid Mashburn, Brooks Brothers, etc.) and I wear a 17.5 (44) in slim shirts (Isaia, SuitSupply, G. Ingese, etc.). I relayed this to Spoo and he shipped me a 17.5. This was a good call. The shirt fits like a freakin' glove. No alterations needed whatsoever, not even the sleeves (incredibly rare). I normally wear about a 35.5 inch sleeve and this shirt was perfect. A note about the length; CM stated that he thought it could be a little longer. I agree, although even with my height, it works well.

I apologize for the iPhone photography and awkward poses to get some side shots. Also, as a bonus, I'm wearing some Kent & Curwen pants I recently purchased from Spoo. These have become one of my favorite pairs of trousers.
