Great find and thanks for the heads up re the archivesale being open again! Managed to grab a linen summer shirt - which I had already flagged as a potential archivesale buy.

Does anyone have a good idea re the sizing of shirts going from s to xxl, versus regular shirt sizes? I’m a 16.5 regular, will that be the equivalent of xl or l?

I don't know about your exact sizing, but in my case the M matches my other 15.75 shirts pretty well.

I think 16''-16.5'' is a solid L. XL usually means 17''++

I contacted Drake's a while ago about that. I am a 17.0 and they recommended XL for me. So I guess, for you, it would be L. (I ordered a shirt heeding their advice and it worked).

I am similarly sized. 16.5.

16.5 (42) in Drakes numbered sized shirts fit me perfectly.

For their Letter sized shirts, Large.....

Canal Street Moving Sale Report: No 16 1/2 shirts at all (but they do have XL and XXL). No ties at all. Some suiting and coats 50-70% off. Shirts are $95, 3 for $245. Knitwear still pricy. Tees $55, scarves $45. Really does seem like they're trying to lighten the load of what they have to move down the street to the new space. Not as good as one of their Sample Sales, but I did get this shirt for $95 instead of the $145 of the archive sale: https://www.drakesarchive.com/usa/c...n-lyocell-two-pocket-work-shirt/category/167/
