I don't know if they are still around but stores in NYC and Chicago were legendary. Up through the 80's, I was impressed with their goods.Just picked up two new Sulka shirts on ebay for $30 each. Â Can anyone tell me how are they? Â Do they compare to H&K or Charvet? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws....AB:US:6 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws....AB:US:6

Yes, full. Don't think bigger than Brooks though. (May be wrong of course -- but difficult to get fuller cut than Brooks, no?) I knew a lot of Ivy League guys who would wear the stuff. It was well-known to be a purveyor of luxury -- almost sinfully so by standards of the New England haberdasher.One thing I've noticed about the Sulka shirts I have is that they're all cut very full -- comparable to the Brooks Brothers cut, or bigger.
What happened? All I remember was, they were on Park in the 50s for many years, seemingly doing just fine. Then they opened a "superstore" on Madison in the 60s, and within a year they were gone. Very sad.Neil Fox was the one who basically killed the business.
