Four season flannel sounds like a unicorn to me but that looks good.

IRL the knot looks smaller (for some reason), but agreed. I went for the Double Guido knot because the back blade was so long - will do a FIH next time. I concede that smaller knots look way better with this collar.

He has tried that in the past. No dice.

Terrible photo, but this kind of cutaway I think looks best because the height and spread are in proportion.

Cayman's looks like it is too high and wide.

I love cutaways, but this looks ridiculous.

+1 - that's just an awful collar. Reminds me of those old Udeshi collars.
