Long time lurker and very seldom commenter. I got this OC from propercloth for Christmas and haven’t had much chance to wear it. The collar is a “Colorado button down” which has less of a roll than the ivy button down. Honestly, if I’d known what a pain the 3rd button is with a tie I’d have gone with the ivy button down.

Material looks nice and soft. Collar points could stand to be a bit longer.

 

[elterrell]

Yes to both. A very comfortable shirt. A little difficult with a tie though.

Here’s a few from me.

It has been a while!

I don’t know if it’s a trick of the camera but I like the combination of blue + grays that have a blue sheen.

I haven't worn button downs for decades, but I love oxford cloth.
Even my pajamas are oxford, which is harder and harder to find.
My most recent oxford shirts are from Hilditch and Key, usually
with a cut away collar. Unfortunately, they were not offering colors
that I like this past season Here's an example that is TOO blue
for me. Look at the texture however:

Well I love that colour. So much more interesting than the ubiquitous and boring pale blue Oxford. I would be tempted to jump on that sale offer but they have very limited sizes.

Thought the group might get a kick out of these - just found them on eBay:

He should have had them up for election week. Would have made a killing.

1960s Cricketeer suit. The vest is reversible so a 4-piece suit. Just got the pants back from the tailor. I may shorten the sleeves.

 

[Count de Monet]

Dude, what a fantastic find. And it looks great on you.

 

[Artigas]

I would leave the sleeves as-is. You can always shorten them later if they start to wear on the edge. Great suit.

Another Friday in-office and a chance to wear an OCBD. Also got a contrasting collar/cuff on this OCBD.

 

[elterrell]

OCBD Friday. New OC although the collar is not button down. Got ballsy and went with a spread.
