I've been wanting a popover for quite a bit now, so I'm still chuffed. They are cheeky little buggers with that "for town and country " on the label though haha. Oh well, thanks for the info gentlemen, $15 for a beater popover is still nothing that I'm going to kick myself too hard about (the 45s on the other hand...).

I have 2 of the first Gant popovers when they relaunched them and they are 2 of my favorite shirts, it's only the monkey arms that stops them being perfect.

Mine have the mock union stamp, I hope you enjoy wearing yours as much as I do YSR.

English Squire is Made in the USA btw. The canvas is a pure cotton twill; no poly-blend.

Haha, I know what you mean... it surprised me last night on one of my routine insomnia induced eBay grazes. I probably could've shaved another sawbuck off the offer but I'm pretty happy with it... Am I wrong about the measurements though? They seem like a pretty solid "M" (38-40) fit, no? I might need to shorten the sleeves an inch, which shouldn't be too difficult; just raise the cuffs, presumably. 45 chest = 22.5" laid flat which is standard for a full cut harrington/jacket and not any bigger than my Drizzler. Length falls on the short side but that's just the cut of the jacket. I hope it works.

^ Made sense as people tended to wear proper waisted trousers and tucked their damn shirts in.

Again I've been searching for a similar drizzler  or Barracuta in  same colour?

Those are severe, man.  Real cool.  They'll make good shades I think.
