Are you people out of your fcuking minds?!? Since when does madras have to be from Injah?
Ah... the relationship between the lower orders and wit has always been an uneasy one- if it were a book, it'd have to be a short one. Like a Viz comic, presumably.
Yeah and shortly after I'd replied to a PM from Harpo telling him people were friendly on this forum...
Poor Harpo.
Don't spoil my buzz, I'm still hard from telling off Zucky...
Ahhhhh - Modsturbation! What can compare?
I think I remember Fred telling me he bought one and that the collar was better in reality that looked from website?
Not really. Pour épater la petite bourgeoisie
you do seem rather obsessed with the middle classes..
I do indeed have the LL Bean Signature Madras - collar is smaller but fine, similar to the Land's End Madras collar. Nice shirt. I am not so happy with the Tattersall shirt I also bought from them....
Thanks for the info Fred. When I went to the LL Bean website I was rather taken with the tattersall shirt and was contemplating ordering it
It would be an ok shirt for $30 but not at the current price......
Well, well, well - a spat in my first thread! Nothing more than a bijou wankette, however - nothing that I can't handle, coming as I quite obviously do from the, ahem, "lower orders".
Is it, I wonder, my parents' background that is worthy of scorn, or my present state and habit? Ho, hum.
Anyway - yes Klook - it is the signiture ones I fancy - especially the one you picture. I was also a bit dubious about the collar, but thought they'd be worth a go. Strangely the ones on their website are shown, gasp, WITH THE COLLARS UNBUTTONED! Someone really should have a word....
Great look, Moose!
And collars, like lapels, have fluctuated in size and cut over the years too. I've got room for it all.
^^^Looks good, doesn't have to big as long it rolls nicely.
moose: how does the overalla sizing / fit compare to last year's le shirts. last time around i ordered a size l and it was rather baggy. if the sizing / fit is quite the same this time around i'll go for an m.
Can't say Heikki as last year I ordered 'M', and this time around 'S' - I find it trim enough but I like my shirts a little on the looser side. Sizing down one in a LE sports shirt should never really be a problem though.
They look good. I never gave these any attention but now they come in small... hmmm.
