Just got this shirt in and damn it's pretty rough. The pattern matching, detailing and stitching is very poor. I used a comparable summer flannel by Proper Cloth to show the difference.

I know pattern matching is not really something you see on work clothes so I wont complain about it, but then at least make it sturdy. The side seam is just single stitched. Even my dress shirts have a double stitched seam and all my quality work shirts are usually tripple stiched. Absolutely poor workmanship for 165. I dont know how this brand still has a reputation.

The barrel shape around the belly kinda makes me look like a lil fat boy. Shoulders and arms are good. Anyone had any luck getting the round shape tailored out? Might sell it otherwise.

In the EU we're kinda cut off from most US and Japanese brands. The ones that sell here are really up there in price. Recently found out Lee has a 101 line with Made in Japan shirts for reasonable prices. This one was 100 euro (from 200 on sale). Its a great airy and neppy denim. Great overshirt for summer. Also scored a two 101 made in Japan shirts on Vinted. Lee is widely sold here and people sometimes price them as regular Lee shirts. Got one with tags for 12,-.

I dont really see their stuff talked about here, but for those in the EU that are looking to pick up some cheap quality shirts this is a great brand to look for on Vinted or other 2nd hand sites. Brand like Filson, RRL, IH etc are all priced like new on these sites.
