Opinions on Finamore dress shirts

Great shirt,worth a repost. How much is Finamore MTM?

I like the patterns and colors of the shirts but I mostly only wear french cuffs so unless they were I would not wear them.

The shirts are all MTM from finamore. If you want them made with french cuffs, you just tell them to make them with french cuffs.

I can´t say the same about his owner that refused to do shirts for me.

I even sent him a remember email last week, six months later his " come to naples " answer and no answer this time ( and won´t be )


Awful service. And I even offered him a show on one of the best shops in my country owned by a friend of mine who has shows by tailors of famous brands ( and high prices as 3800 for a mtm Armani black label )

As a businessman, I can´t believe this things happens on any bussiness.

I went Barba.

Still salty?

What did you say to him that got him pissed off anyway?

Beautiful shirts. I hope you enjoy them. Did you ever meet with anyone from Finamore in the US or do you live in Europe? Thanks.

I purchased one Finamore black label shirt a few year's back. Unfortunately i have found the quality to be very ordinary, definitely a few notches below Borrelli (although Finamore are less expensive). The cotton is inferior, buttons have fallen off. Not a very good shirt for the money. While i realise it's only the one shirt and may not be indicitive it makes it very hard to justify purchasing any more.

Yes I am still salty ( never heard that before, must mean bitter ) I don´t know, I sent him several questions about shirtmaking and a link of robb whatever where it said that he was doing the shirts for the english maker Turnbull. He told me to come to Naples, that is an unacceptable answer . It never happened before but on girls, honest ( refuse I mean ) He must be a narcisist , that is the one reason. Do you agree? I went Barba and Delsiena mtm and got in my mail tons of swatches .

Interesting experience. I wonder what their reasoning was for treating you poorly.

Sometimes things get lost in translation. If you really want a Finamore shirt go through a store not direct.

There are none in my country, I wish it was as easy. Never lost any envelope ...

Try Calling them. Are you still interested in buying shirts from them, or is it just that you're still curious about why they ignored your emails.
