How does the NOBD II collar compare with the Luxire English spread collar? I would imagine the Luxire collar is wider spread. How about the height of the neckband and length of the points, though?

I really liked the picture of the English spread with 3.25 inches posted a couple of days ago. I just like a little higher collar to complement my neck.

Latest ironed and ready with and without jacket. I really like this collar (English spread with 3.25 points)

The default version of attaching the sleeves is like a "T", i.e. fitting best when your arms are raised to the sides.. Alternatively, the sleeves can be attached to fit when your arms are hanging. So depending on if you want to wear the shirt while sitting at your desk or ballroom dancing one may be more suitable than the other.


Wut?

I don't think you can really have set-in sleeves on a shirt. Shirts take shirt sleeves.

Maybe I wasn't very precise by saying the sleeves can be altered to fit when the arms are hanging. I should have said by varying the angle the sleeves are attached you can make them better fit while your arms are hanging.

There was a discussion about this before: http://www.styleforum.net/t/304965/...g-official-affiliate-thread/5865#post_6696013

Would still be interesting to hear Luxire's take on this.

+1, love my navy denim chambray, but would like a solid navy like the PRL posted as well.

+1 again. I also have the navy chambray by Brembana and it's a great shirt, but I would like another shade of blue as you mention.

I'd love a fabric like this — white stripes on blue.

This just says summer to me.

Yup, seconded (or rather, thirded, given Betelgeuse's support upthread). Would definitely order a grey stripe as a smooth/flat business shirting (i.e. not an oxford cloth and with no sheen/dobby effect), preferably the width of those in the photo (would also be interested in a slightly thinner grey stripe with wider white stripes between).
