I would like some wide candy stripe AND shirts for the brighter weather.
I am struggling to find it currently.
Recommendations welcome.
While not BD, T&A has nice candies. H&H makes custom shirts in candies.
Thanks. I checked the BB which wasn't available and is linen based which I try to avoid in shirts. Otherwise perfect. I do have some from previous seasons - LE do a nice one but I would like to go even wider in stripe. I did check Mercer and they have good Bengal width stripe but I did not see a very casual summery one.
I do need to go into JS soon - so will also check when in there.
I'm going to sound like a stuck record but Drakes do some.
They do and it looks great, but their chest to neck ratio is wrong for me even sizing down on neck. Good call though.
Bespoke is not really my thing yet. I'm not desperate to sort it. Spring ranges and options during my work travel will no doubt turn up some new options.

Excellent, thanks.
This popped up in my instagram ads, not sure about the collar though. Some newish Scani brand

Nice to see. BB on Regent St has a beautiful one in the window. It was cotton rather than linen but only in 14.5 collar online.

These look nice, only 16.5 left though...

Yes stunning. Exactly what I envisaged when I started the thread.

Those wider vertical stripes are sometimes called "awning stripes." This might help if you are doing web searches.
Anyone out there tried the JS Raglan jobbies yet?

There were only the three versions when I was there, Captain. The uni stripe oxford looked nice too, but I didn't try it, I've more than enough shirts in that cloth.
The new crop of madras shirts hadn't landed at that point, so can't report on them, alas.
Second vote for Drakes - https://www.drakes.com/shirts/white-pink-stripe-regular-fit-cotton-shirt-with-button-down-collar
