I am new to the forum because I am looking for a particular type of pinned collar **** and am having a hard time. I am hoping to get help from you experts.

I am looking for a white, pin collared shirt and have no idea where to purchase one. The closest example to what I am looking for is Here
worn by Matt Bomer in his primer photos for White Collar. I have plenty of collar bars for some reason, just no pin collar shirts.

Thanks for any help,

-Terry

Collar **** tends to distract from an otherwise well thought out ensemble.

Thank you corniche. I will def take a look at the boss line. I think the club, pinned collars look very classy.

The reason your having such a hard time finding them is that they have gone out of style over the years. I suppose the wardrobe person for this show is trying to bring them back or something(god only knows why). You may be able to find them on ebay or something or once man masters the art of time traveling you can go back 15/20 years and get them. If one was only so desperate to do so.

I have to say that, no matter how many times I see this typo, it never gets old.

Whilst using this time machine we should go back to cuffed trousers, double breasted suits, and bow ties because they aren't in style. No one should bother wearing this stuff anymore.

Some would recommend pinning an ordinary collar. Otherwise, you may have to go custom.

I've always been a fan, but they're definitely coming back. It's probably another Mad Men effect, since I think one of the characters favors them.

I saw Alan Cummings wearing one as host of Mystery on BBC the other day, and a friend told me he recently bought a RTW shirtwith a pin collar by mistake. When you start finding them without looking for them, you know they're coming back.
