I don't know why. Almost all the Finamore's collars have such a feature.


You use triple FIH or the normal double full-Windsor to fill the hole?

I don't, actually I am quite fuddy duddy and sometimes even pedantic.
However, there are enough people who get their shirts that way so that they can flip it when they want...for them it some kind of cool "feature".
