Anyone interested in an GMTO for D&J Anderson 100% West Indian Sea Island Cotton shirts? Looks like we can do a GMTO for $160 USD/$199 CAD. Includes MOP buttons. These shirts regularly retail for well over $350 USD for the genuine article.

I'm just trying go gauge interest. Figure out details later.

Without hesitation

Perhaps.

Sell us on it though, what are the pros of a fabric like this?

Would the GMTO only include standard sizes that are available OTR?

Yes

Depends on the exact fabric coloring/available sizing, but yes.

Most likely just a solid white and solid blue fine twill to get the ball rolling. Essential staples.

I'm really liking the new Guabello light-blue check suit. But it, and the matching blue individual slacks which have been up for a couple of days now, are only listed in contemporary fit. Will the slim fit be offered?

It's highly considered to be THE best cotton in the world. Yearly production only makes up 0.04% of the worlds cotton supply. It's the longest staple length of any species of cotton resulting in stronger, smoother and softer fabrics. David & John Anderson is the luxury division of the Albini ground, who also own Thomas Mason. This is better than Thomas Mason. You can barely get Thomas Mason at $160 USD. Go on, Live like a King.

Nope. Guabello only had limited quantity available in this at the time. We snatched it up and could only make Contemporary.

Rick, you thinking standard OTR sizes similar to the summer Oxford gmto? Id prefer a MTO style, potential to change length waist and sleeve length maybe? Also would prefer a modified version of the spread collar with slightly longer points

Let's get this ball rolling! When would this get off the ground?

MTO would be more, because we can't produce in bulk.
