Thanks! Yes it is a different suit. That one was a bit too small on me. My mindset is I'm not trying to horde as much as possible but switch things out if and when I can for items that personally fit better or are more interesting or regularly wearable. In this case, like I said, it was...
Does anyone have this shirt? Can you comment on fit or add an actual photograph? Might make for a good cheap vintage-inspired shirt, but I'm always hesitant about Peterman's fit.

The final installment needs to be Indiana Jones and the search for the Lost Horizon. Involves the search for shangri la & living forever ala Capra's Lost Horizon & the various versions of She. The themes completely compliment the time he really lived in; shangri la was a pop culture...
I was thinking maybe some colored/striped collarless shirts might work with the aging collars, but I haven't found a shirt that fits just right yet [huh]

Also, the pocket watch pockets, mountain pockets, various buttons and variety of fabrics used. No argument, they are far too expensive. But if you don't buy them - who is to blame for our economy not recovering...? :p
Plus, there's some really cool features on the original shirts & japanese reproductions that aren't found on the target and dickies versions. It boils down to one of the mainstays of this site - details, details, details! ;)
Heartbreaking indeed! In my case, I wasn't clear that this was the reason behind the rip, but knowing this has happened to others certainly leads on to believe that dry rot is the culprit. I think I remember reading your post on that some time ago. On the other hand, what other option is...
Oye! Now you tell me :eek:
I'm considering taking the money from that button up leather jacket I sold and going for a Deckard suit as a default summer suit for myself due to fear of ruining this original one :eusa_doh:
