I just received a new batch from the factory. The old thread is getting a little confusing so I thought I would start a new one. Shirts are all French cuff, with large MOP buttons, and pattern-matching. All shirts have darts in the back (except where noted), more form fitting. [More] Fit is slim, slimmer than nearly all RTW, probably about the same as H&M and Zara. Fabrics are all 2-ply 100's and above from Italian mills. Reviews have all been positive. VMan says:
Construction, fabric, and detailing are superior to similarly-priced shirts. I would say this is on par with shirts in the $200-$250 range (Robert Talbott, Zegna).
Serg says:
I believe the actual construction on the shirt is equivalent to RLPL. One specific area that appears to be superior to most every shirt I have seen are the buttons.
Size 15 Neck: 15 Shoulder: 18 Sleeve: 23.5 Chest: 20 Waist: 17.5 Length: 26.5 This corresponds to a 15-32.5 in conventional retail sizing. This was previously called size Small, but I have decided to use numerical sizing from now on. Photos of me wearing one. Shirts in this size are $95. Size 15.75 Neck: 15.75 Shoulder: 19.5 Sleeve: 25.5 Chest: 22 Waist: 19 Length: 28.5 This corresponds to a 15.75-35.25 in conventional retail sizing. This was previously called size Medium. Photos of VMan wearing one. Shirts in this size are $105. Shirts #3. Pure white, fabric is a little sheer. 15.75: 1 available. #4. 120's. No back darts. 15.75: 1 available. #7. Rare yellow MOP buttons. No back darts. 15: 1 available, 15.75: 1 available. #8. Pink twill. 15: 1 available. #9. Blue thin stripe. 15: 2 available. A1. Pure white, diamond texture. 15: 2 available, 15.75: 2 available. W1. Blue twill micro check. 15: 1 available, 15.75: 1 available. PA1. This is a shirt we custom made for VMan. The fabric is a superior 120's. You can order a shirt in this fabric, size 15: $105, size 15.75: $120. Delivery will take about six weeks. There are also still two shirts from the sample sale that are still available for $70. Boxers Currently only available in size 30, which should fit waists 28-32. Slim fit, no tags on the waistband to irritate you. Same high quality fabrics as the shirts. $25 each. #2. SOLD #3. #4. #5. #6. Payment, shipping Free shipping in the US. International: $10 for shirts, $5 for boxers, flat rate (e.g. 3 shirts is still $10, 1 shirt and 1 boxer is only $10). Google Checkout only, or 3% more for PayPal. Please place your order via the website order form. Questions: email [email protected]. Do not PM.

Already sold 4 shirts. Next batch will probably be mid-January. Seeking shirt model -- NO LONGER I worked with VMan on the sizing for the 15.75. I am seeking another person to work with on the next larger size. This is not a model in the sense of being photographed, but one that I will base the measurements on. Ugly people may apply. Criteria:
  • 40-42 chest.
  • Slim, about drop 6. Not overly skinny or muscular.
  • Approximately 16.5 neck, but am flexible about this.
  • Preferably already has some well-fitting shirts that we can copy the measurements of.
  • Reasonably available via email or IM.
  • At least 100 posts, preference given to well-known members.
The job will involve measuring shirts that you have and discussing ideal measurements for the size. I will then make a shirt for you in that size. You will have to pay for it, but at a substantial discount. Retail will probably be $120-125, so it would be less than that. No longer accepting applications.

I have added a gaggle of new shirts and one new pair of boxers to the first post.

If you'd make a 17.5 with a 51-52 chest, 48 waist and 36-37 sleeves i'd be interested in a number. 2 button cuffs please.
