Here's a Trend shirt. Lower left. Light blue stripe. Split yoke, 70's height collar, snug all over, the way I like it.

Mustapha, thanks for sharing. Perhaps you'd consider moving the top button just a smidge also? I thought the second button was not supposed to show, but maybe that rule is only for suit jackets. Yes, I like the work he did. I like the shoulders and the sleeves...no puckering or folds. How many cleanings have you done on the jacket so far?

If your looking for some good shirts there is James VII located on Richmond St West. www.jamesvii.com
Theodore 1911 in Toronto also does MTM, I believe they do all the work in the basement. You can go down there and see people sewing stuff.

Is it done yet? How did it go?

I believe Theodore 1911 actually outsources their bespoke/MTM work (another tailor blurring the lines between MTM/bespoke in Toronto). IIRC David told me that they get the work done in Italy.
Not to get into the debate but it really depends on how you define bespoke. I once had a tailor that claimed that there were no real bespoke tailors left in Toronto (regardless how the various "bespoke" and "custom" shops bill themselves). When I asked to clarify, he indicated he did not know of a single tailor in Toronto that did not start off with a standard paper block pattern during cutting and most use quite a bit of sewing machine to save costs.
I just went to Raji's. The service was poor. The shop was disorganized and messy. I had to ask three times about shirts before he would give me an answer and then informed me that custom shirts come in a minimum order of 3 (for $600), custom shirts elsewhere start around $130 and can be bought individually.
