@Duke Manteereally great to see all your shirts in their full glory; very interested in the jacket department as well 

the coral stripe shirt is one of my all time favorite patterns!

also noticed in the CSF thread you are somewhat growing tired with FW? is this just on the denim or overall collection?

 

[Duke Mantee]

@SLAB Thanks buddy - jackets will follow once I get through the shirts 

I think I have too much - I know I call it a collection, and it is, but there’s less and less I can justify as new and original. Like all brands, FW re-use fabrics, designs and parts of designs and so it becomes more difficult to justify to myself why I’d want to buy something I probably already have in some form or another.

There are exceptions to that approach but all I referred to was a being a little bored - I’m sure it’ll pass

@Duke Mantee This is such a killer look. You pull it off so well...like it was made for you.

Serviceman blue grey chambray and Fearless trouser

I lost the left pocket button.

Under the collar and shoulder area.

[Snake]

Fearless is perfect for the Summer. Light weight wide herringbone fabric.

[Duke Mantee]

@Snake Another great combo - the serviceman is one of my favourite fabrics

@Suitedupmon Thank you - much appreciated 

[Duke Mantee]

Signalman + Bakehead

[SLAB]

the Fearless is indeed suited for summer. Very light weight, perhaps a bit too much for me. I have the grey/navy one; although I fail to see the navy in there

Serviceman still in stock? 
I’ve  been wanting a nice SS chambray for summer time 

[CSL]

One that I regret not buying was the red chambray Neal shirt. Hope they reintroduce that at some point.

@ecsong187 I doubt the Serviceman is still available. It's from 2012. You can check out the Ironalls short sleeve shirt. It's the last chambray short sleeve shirt release by FW.

@SLAB Yeah, I know what you mean. The version I am wearing is beige x brown and somehow it looks light grey.

And the green one... I'd love the green chambray in the skid row cut..

What is the difference between the "Neal" and the "Bakehead" shirts?

The Neal shirts have a much better name

[Dr_Heech]

The Neal shirts are louder, and always have to have the last word ...

Everything - is the easy answer

The patterns are slightly different, the Bakehead was derived from the Neal as a nod towards the growing western market who were seen to prefer a more ‘fitted’ work shirt (one of my pet peeves I mentioned elsewhere)

The ‘moriarty’ (below) is another variation

They also used to be seen around DB all the time and recently seemed to have disappeared.

[Duke Mantee]

Right, this next batch should take us to 80 shirts ... nearly there
