Opinions on Finamore dress shirts

[sho'nuff]

Some decadent looking shirts from virtualclotheshorse.

I was wondering how you guys like them and how they compare in fit to say rlpl, rlbl, barba, and borrelli?

these will run you exactly $161.1 (when using sf 10% discount) shipped, retail is $585

Good resale value after you don't wear them but get tired of them anyway.

Why you call them decadent, means decay??

While I love them and specially that wide spread collar.

I bought that one but I got to reduce it to get it as a real european slim, minus 10 cm each side.

They look good but the lack of measurements keeps me from buying from VCH.

"marked by excessive self-indulgence and moral decay"

i use the term to describe anything luxuriously superlative. unnecessary in normal /practical usage circumstances and only for pure enjoyment of the thing, which will degrade my moral /values of other more important aspects of life. sort of like that.

I like them but I'm not payign the $500 price tag that they are charging in the Borrelli store.

is it really that bad?

are they particularly blousy , or you just want them ultra slim?

how do they compare to rlbl or barba?
would i be able to wear these finamores match fine with slim tapered dress pants or better outfitted for pleated pants?

The fit varies depending upon the source. The ones you show have a way too large of collar for my tastes.

 

[sho'nuff]

do these finamores fit sort of like this:

?
i know they may be slightly more blousy than that above but is it in thes same ballpark or a completely different ballpark?

I bought a Finamore from Lance and like it a lot. I may have it tapered. It is fuller than Borelli and Barba. Why don't you drop Lance a note? He will give you the exact measurements.

yeah talk to him all the time. he is on his iphone alot and out and about so i dont really get the measurements.
s o you like them in terms of fabrics i suppose. but even if you dont taper it, would the fit still be in the realm of a good silhouette or just a boxy older man's silhouette?
thanks

ShoptheFinest has a large stock of Finamore shirts. Priced at $129. Have purchased many in the past. Quality similar to Borrelli. Higher than Barba. Feel and style close to Borrelli. Perhaps slightly slimmer. Have been pleased with the shirts.

Yeah ian has them I forgot. He does charge los angeles tax so they come out to 141 around there and will charge shipping if you don't pick up so the price is around same. Lance I've been dealing with for awhile and I have a bit of loyalty to him.
