I have a few RTW CHarvet shirts. I happen to like them and theyve stood the test of at least some time and wear and tear. However, they arent worth the sticker price when I can go to a quality shirtmaker like Paris Custom Shirts.

Im at the point where Id rather have fewer but better. I would like to hear more about Siviglia.

I used Seewalt and Bauman a while back. They make a decent shirt too. I never liked the collars but the construction was good. They have more of a Trad cast to them, if I may say so. Their collars, though they have another feature i dont like about them, always struck me as reminiscent of Camelot circa 1961.

Were you measured by Dan Hirsch?  I have never met anyone who tries to sell MTM shirts with a similar lack of even accidental ability when it comes to fitting.

I am dumbfounded at how a company with their reputation could put plastic buttons on shirts that cost in excess of $300 off the peg.

By the way, there are two excellent shirtmakers in your backyard (NYC) in Paris and Geneva.  No real need to venture further.

Edit: That's Paris shirtmakers and Geneva shirtmakers (Both in NY)

Bear with me.
