Which one did you buy?
They have some nice items. Atrocious website and it looks like stock availability is a big issue,, but I like the vibe they're going for. Curious to know how the quality turns out.

Got this one. The site is… pretty rough. Seems like there may also be an element of offline interaction no matter what you order, since I don’t think I got the option to select a size. The designs are great though, and I like that they have both cotton and wool options.

I like Sid Mashburn and Todd Snyder both as well.

I like the one Sid Mashburn one I have a lot. My only issue is that either the buttons are too small or the button holes are too big because it's constantly coming undone.

I still stick with RL, the price to durability ratio is just spot on, and the fit works really for me

Zegna, great stuff, especially if you pick blended ones like cotton and silk, or cotton and linen

Cucinelli, Loro - I don't see the point, they are good at knitted cashmere and wool, and LP at cloths, especially given their hideous MSRPs in the US

bought some from Scaglione in silk recently and at this price point, absolutely love them, very European cut, and the silk is rather resilient, put them really through the test at Coachella and they took it well

Also, I don't see the point of spread collars on polos. But sizing is the first (literal) barrier to entry there.

I like the structure of the collars on thoes polos, but such a wide spread on polo collas looks a bit odd to me.

Organic cotton Fideli polos are my favorite. The knit is ideal, not heavy or too light. Soft right off the rack. They run slim cut so I size up.

They list rather capacious chest measurements on the website (I am looking at the Zero organic shirt), but nothing about sleeve length, shoulder width, etc. Any surprises, there?

No surprises about sleeve fit on the organic cotton tees or short sleeve polos. I normally wear a 52EU and need a 54EU in both. Surprised they list measurements as Capacious as they taper in length. You'll want the size up unless you are have an extreme drop from shoulder to waist.
