Re: John Simons Madras
Actually now that I think about it, I've never seen Dizzy, Sonny Rollins or Chet Baker in madras either... Chico Hamilton is the only one I can imagine in madras...

Re: John Simons Madras
I thought they did really well with their choices this time they all look really nice, Ive not tried these but found the pit 2 pit too slim on the older ones, I'm guessing the cut is the same on these?

You can play a shoestring if you're sincere.

Re: John Simons Madras
I bought one of the 'Bird' full placket short sleeve today.
They are cut a little big, my Medium (I usually take a large in most things) is 22.5" ptp if that helps Babbling Brooks. Nice details like the locker loop, decent size collar and the button down pocket.
The colours on some of them are really vibrant, all of them nice really.

Re: John Simons Madras
What are the shoulders like? Does M = 18"? I can't seem to find any size chart on the site and they haven't returned my e-mail.

Re: John Simons Madras
I purchased the Bird. Can't wait for it to come. Based on the sizing comments above I think it will fit. Here is to hoping it works out!

Re: John Simons Madras
Anybody know the length of the collar points? they look very small in the photos.

Re: John Simons Madras
Shade under 7.5cm when flat
The 'tuck in' popover ones look good.

Re: John Simons Madras
Do they have any striped madras shirts at the moment. The website suggests not, but the website isn’t always the full story.
