Detachable Collars Stateside?

[3PcSuit]

Hello everyone. As someone that generally dons a tie every day, I try to wear something a little bit nicer on Easter. Am looking to get some new detachable collars for my Toomey neckband shirt, and maybe some cuffs, but I am saddened to see that, sinc emy last order, Amazon Drygoods is on the verge of closing.

As usual I have put this off to the last minute. Only looking for a high wing and maybe a varied assortment of others. Back in '06 when I bought the last batch of this stuff, I found Drygoods and one other U.S. company. Anyone know whom I'm talking about? I have a 15" neck if that helps.



Thanks all for the advice. Would prefer to stay in the U.S. solely due to time at this point. Notice a lot of companies in U.K and I assume there are some in Canada. Watching Law & Order U.K. I understand why so many! ;-)

These are the only places I could find with detachable wings.
2-3/8" http://www.premierclothing.com/Shop/p/100-wing-tip-detachable-collar-style-060-d/
approx. 2" http://www.gentlemansemporium.com/store/001573.php

If you are really in a bind, you could make one out of a Clorox bottle.

Hey, thanks for the quick response. Any other companies that stock detachables?


Could've sworn there was one somewhere in New England or on the East Coast. . .



I'd jump on the 2-3/8" if it weren't $19. Even though it's cotton reusable and that's nice, IDK about paying more for a collar than (granted) a cheap Chinese shirt.

All I've ever used is the disposable type. Seems like those aren't as highly-rated that you've found. I like the really high ones. Any idea what Amazon Dryuygoods is/was? They used to have sizes, but looks as if they took them down.

Guess I need to make some calls in a hurry though! Can't believe it's Wednesday already. . .

You all forgot about Darcy Clothing and Luke Eyres!

Best regards, Dr

P.S. If the location is suitable for you...

Something tells me this ain't gonna happen by Easter. [huh]

Wanna make a $100 bet?

 

[3PcSuit]

Ouch, $40, but I can still make $60 on the bet

3:1 odds anyone?

Looks like the high wing was 3.5" front, 2" rear, I doubt the 3.5'/2' they quoted is correct.

 

[3PcSuit]

Right? I just found that myself.

IDK about 3-1/2 xc 2 INCHES. Seems really high front.

ADG's contact info was 1-800-798-7979, info@amazondrygoods.com. Might try calling them and seeing if they're still in business.

THey are still in business, but they're out of a lot of collar types. LOL, don't want to look like one of the Wright Brothers. Wore those collars a few times for kicks, and am STILL embarassed looking at photos of me in them in the 21st Century! ;-)
