University Stripe OCBD advice

Good day, gentlemen...

Does anyone currently own a JS university stripe OCBD?

I was just wondering if they were traditional fit, slim fit or a bit more "bloused" so to speak. And if that roll is enough to fit a tie under. I've discovered something called fruit and salad and see this shirt as my reward once the bay window has gone.

Just to enter the debate from earlier, my Uniqlo collars have all started to fray, which obviously causes me distress (no pun intended) when I'm strolling through town in my best wares.

Ivy style today was blue uniqlo OCBD, horn rimmed reading glasses, green Shetland sweater from James Meade, blue cords and brown suede desert boots + my new Timex Easy Reader. My style is more Charles from Scent of a Woman than John Nash from A Beautiful Mind at present.

In all my years of hoarding Brooks Makers shirts, I have one candy stripe. (Actually I have 2, but the second one has some problem with the fabric making it unwearable, so that doesn't count.)


some sort of banal legitimacy

Re: University Stripe OCBD advice

That isvery sad to hear Yuca iwonder why ?  In Sancho's case i think a 33 sleeve on a 15,5 collar is quite unusual.

i see far more 15.5 in a 34 sleeve .

I have two blue and two red makers all seven button and a modern made in USA blue uni stripe.

Also i have a red slightly thicker stripe (god knows what its called) and a Brown pencil stripe in a six button placket.

Gutted that i missed out on a green one two weeks ago.

Sleeve garters are your friend Sancho.
