Two shirts today, I didn't realize dunhill shirts were made in Italy. Passed on 4 canali shirts that didn't fit, also a shirt from The Shirt Shop (Store?), that was to big. I found a new goodwill outlet center, should be hitting it this week. PM me if your interested in the shirts.

^^^If it makes anyone feel any better, while I do have a pretty good poker face, when I saw the TF, I did mutter "Good Lord!"

Had a glorious day today. Sadly everything is a size larger than I would normally wear, however, after trying on it's not too bad. The sleeves are all too long but that's easy to fix. Chest and collar look good. Should I keep or sell? What say you? Lorenzini

P. Bateman - to my inexpert eye, all of those shirts are too big for you. The shoulder seams are hanging off the ends of your shoulders, instead of resting where your clavicle meets your shoulder. This is how I wore my shirts until about 6 months ago, but now I can't go back. That's my $.02, anyway.

Sell - the shoulders are all too big. Sell them and buy one shirt that fits you really well.

Actually, with the sleeves shortened this one looks like it'd fit you pretty well. Can't tell how well it fits in the neck, though. Nice haul!

Epic finds! Borelli and 2nd brioni are great, they'll prob look pretty great with some alterations (note, cant see too well as im on my phone now, nice patterns though) ! I'd be glad to take em off your hands but they don't look much like 14.5's

If it makes you feel better, he's only been around under his own label for 6 years.
