Zegna Shirt Observation

[beansprouts1]

So I was checking out some Zegna shirts yesterday and I noticed that among the same type of shirt (solid blue button down) there was a serious disparity between the thickness of MOP buttons between different sizes.

The 15's and 17's I found had all very thin, crappy MOP buttons, whereas the 15.5's had extremely thick, nice buttons. The differences were not just with single buttons, the diminished button size was consistent throughout the shirt. WTH is up with that? I'm a 15 so I was kinda pissed.

Were they Zegna or Z Zegna (crap line made in Mexico)? If Z Zegna this is no surpise.

regular zegna, with the white label. i dont think z zegna even has MOP buttons, though i'll admit their shirts fit me OTR better than anything else though.

They probably scaled down the thickness of the buttons in relation to the size of the shirts. Although thats not right is it, because you said the 17" shirts also had thin buttons. Not sure, I've never noticed this.

yea the button sizes were completely random. I think there were also some 15.5's with crap buttons. What caught my attention were one 15.5 and one 16 with some of the nicest MOPs i've ever seen.
