Yes, indeed it is.
Partly my poor ironing is to blame, but the shirt is not where it should be in terms of quality for the $175 or so I paid four years ago. Of course, at the time I really didn't know much better.
Note the poor pattern matching at the shoulders. Single yoke. Plastic buttons. Fit wasn't all that hot either. I do better by myself with Jantzen, although the fabric of this shirt is superior to anything Jantzen offers.
Just a note on Ayala -- he did not make these shirts, as he is not a shirtmaker. For suits, jackets, trousers and the like, his construction is quite good, with the exception of his button holes which are kind of sloppy.
