I'm sending this shirt back, but is this a normal TS feature? Just noticed this, and checked all my G shirts and none of them had it.  They stitched through the shirt for the Made in California tag and the Taylor Stitch tag. Found that odd and an eyesore. |

I have a 10oz Nisshinbo Utility shirt that has a small leather patch sewed on the back of the neck, and although not real apparent, you can see the stitching on the back. None of my other shirts show any stitching on the back side like this. |

I have two older shirts in the "work shirt" vein that have that. I like it. Don't know enough about the true origins of the style, but I've seen it before. But if you don't like it then you should not have to keep it.

I like it. Its a work shirt with some older/vintage styling (but not to much). Has some stitches for a tag on it unlike a dress shirt. A little rough around the edges is fine with me on this one.
But glad I got the pockets alined

My telegraph jacket and trousers came yesterday. Can't really say I'm a huge fan of either item. The fabric is about half the weight I was expecting and they seem to be cut for people with no muscles at all.

Thought they looked really nice and was considering them myself, but I wouldn't want to put myself in a strait jacket if I did buy them. |

No regular vs slim. The sleeves on the 40/M jacket are narrower in the forearm than a tailored slim Banana Republic shirt. The pants fit ok, but tighter in the thigh than a Gustin chino for the corresponding waist. |

That's annoying. A little looser is fine, it can be taken in. Don't think there's much you can do for something that's too small.

Sent in the return request, disappointed they didn't work out. |

I was interested in their telegraph suit. Can you post some measurements on what you got? Also, do you wear a 40 in other TS shirts? I really regretted not going in on it but now thinking I may have dodged a bullet if it's really slim.

I really regretted not going in on it but now thinking I may have dodged a bullet if it's really slim. I'll post some measurements this afternoon. It was my first TS purchase so nothing to compare against with shirts. I wear Gustin M shirts and the chest measurement on the fit guide was the exact same as my Banana Republic 40 Slim blazer. The Telegraph has insanely high armholes and narrow sleeves relative to that BR jacket. Worst of all the fabric just isn't great. |

Wear a slim S in Gustin Shirts (best fit) but could pull of a classic. What do you guys suggest for TS shirts? 36? Thinking of the sand jack. Really digging that brown color. Happy I saw it in time before backing the Gustin brown chambray

Just received my Moss Mech Shirt, and I love the fabric, I love the shade, but it's still a tad too small at size 40. Fits better in some respects (I can button it all the way to the top) to a Gustin Classic Medium, and fits worse in some respects (back of the shirt feels more restricted). Also, it has way too many buttons imo, and I can't button it to the bottom comfortably. Pretty disappointed, because I really wanted this to work. Maybe TS shirts isn't for me. But I still wear the Navy Maritime almost everyday. I highly recommend it.

One button too many. If they spaced the buttons a bit further apart I think they could have work it.
I just got my shipping notification for the chambray workshop shirt. Hopefully it is exactly what I've been looking for for a solid casual summer chambray.

Just opened my chambray shirt. Pretty cool. Startchy fabric. Pretty basic but fit and construction is on point. Still not a fan of TS button placement on the button downs. Second button is too high and I feel there is one button too many.

My good acre double knee ducks came in today. The fit of the 32 is about like a Gustin 34 slim. Construction is good, but something about them is leaving me a bit cold. The fly is a bit odd and the double knee portion is oddly proportioned compared to Carhartts.

Hopefully my olive highlands shirt will be coming in soon. Kinda a spur of the moment buy but I like camp shirts. The canvas mechanic, Yosemite chamois and chambray are awesome.
