MULTI-COLOR CHECK COTTON SHIRT. Size 40. Extensive Hand Finishing.

Description

On consignment with us is this red/white/black cotton check civilian pattern shirt that will fit an individual with a
40” chest
. This shirt was worn a couple times but remains in beautiful condition. The only sign of having been worn is a mark on the inside of the collar (
see last photo
).
This shirt was made by Doug Towne and features an extensive amount of precise hand stitching. The main (long) seams are machine-sewn but all other stitching is done by hand including the button holes.
This shirt features a falling pattern collar w/ one button closure, 3 button front plaque and 1 button on each slightly gathered cuff. Buttons are a small size and we believe they’re Mother-Of-Pearl. Rounding out this shirt are underarm gussets, small side seam splits and the fabric’s selvedge edge is used for the bottom hem.
Here are some additional measurements.
PLEASE
check these measurements against your own respective sizes to insure this shirt will fit correctly on ALL points.
COLLAR: 18"
(measures 18 1/2” on the shirt so will fit an 18" neck comfortably when buttoned
SLEEVE: 36”
(as measured from the center of the back of the neck, over the shoulder and down to the bottom of the cuff)
FRONT LENGTH: 32"
(base of collar to front bottom hem)
BACK LENGTH: 34”
(base of collar in the back to rear bottom hem)
ARMPIT-TO-ARMPIT: 25”
(not an actual point of measurement in tailoring but a lot of gents ask for it
Just to mention it we have a virtually identical shirt to this one also on eBay. The only differences is the size, (34) and that shirt is entirely hand sewn (every stitch hand pulled). Other than that they are identical (fabric, pattern and buttons). Oh yes, the other shirt (the size 34) has never been worn.
