[resortes805]

After months of subtle hint dropping, El Pachuco is offering vintage style pointy collar dress shirts.

That looks nice.

Ahhh....you found it.....but still no info on materials. The one in the package looks much better than the one on the model.

Wow, those are some LONG collar points.

No french cuffs?

It's a cotton-poly fabric. The pic I took with my camera is more accurate (the pic on the site was taken at an awkward angle).

Thanks for the tip!
I have been wanting something in this style.
How long is the collar?

I ordered one of these, it's a great shirt especially for the price! I hope they make pinstriped ones next! It arrived so quickly... I think perhaps they just walked it over to my house.... HONESTLY!

Pictures, man! Pictures!

 

[Jay]

Does anyone have pictures of this shirt being worn? The website picture is still that awkward one and I can't tell if I like it or not.

Wow, those are some LONG collar points.

and how. i could never pull one of those shirts off.

Now that's a collar you can't take home to Mom!

How's the fit? Are they a slim cut or do they run baggy? Does the collar size run true to measurements?

I think we are all in agreement, pictures are desperately needed!

 

[resortes805]

They run "big" compared to vintage sizes. I usually wear a medium, and I wear a size large in these. I am in Washington DC right now, so when I get back I will measure the shirt, and take some more pics.

Shame they're not double-cuffed - that's a deal breaker for me. I'm surprised, too, that they're poly cotton - surely the vintage oriented market for these would make an all-cotton construction a better seller? [huh]

I'd still like to see one being worn, though.

Have a look at Gene Krupa's shirt in this clip.

Both of those details would add to the cost of the shirt ... and the manufacturer and sellers felts that that their customers wouldn't be willing to pay so much.
