When I find a decent OCBD I try to buy several as it seems brands keep changing sizing, collar construction etc.
Kamakura; I’m not a huge fan of the “regular” Kamkura OCBDs, but the sport line OCBDs are amazing! Drakes are also nice but pricy.
Yes, I prefer the Kamakura sport line to the regular shirts because of the unlined collars. I'm tempted by the Drake's shirts. How do their collars compare to Kamakura? Are the collars more like the regular or the sport line?

Drakes button downs (Oxford cloth and other fabrics) are absolutely my current favorites, but they’re pricy. The collar roll is excellent. I try to get an OCBD and a chambray button down or two during archive sales....

Thanks. I'll have to give them a try.

This is really good.

Your pastor let's you wear a turtleneck to church?

I've been hitting it out of the park with @SpooPoker recently. This flannel jacket arrived last week. It needs some waist suppression and longer sleeves but ill take care of that in 4 weeks when it warms up. For now, I'll enjoy it.
