    Hey guys i thank you for your patience and tolerance.
    Yes the shirt was tailored to be identical with the zara youth but the darts were excluded as the taylors refused to include darts they say it will shrink even more during the garment wash procedure. The shorts are done. And. I will pic them up this week . In total pnly 120 were ordered i have included all buyers in one email group i pick up the shirts this week and will garment wash and send pics after that it is sent off to you all. Re the label size better to follow the taylor so they wont confuse themselves . The size label better to cut off if u use for personal use i will send pics son guys

    Thank you Leonard. So if I understand correctly, the sizes are the same just with more X's?

    So if someone ordered an XL, what are they now getting?

    Thank you again, bang up job!

    If you ordered an XL, you will be getting an XL.

    As it’s from an asian tailoring company, it will say something different (XXL maybe?) but it will still be an XL.

    Feels like a classic exercise in Baudrillard-style semantics. Is the 5:30 train still the 5:30 train if it’s late?

    Well, as long as I get my true sizes, then I'll be happy.

    Thanks

    How are we doing on this? The shirts have been at the tailors for a while. Wouldn't be surprised if they were ready.

    The shirts were ready some time ago. They just needed to be collected shrink-washed and sent out.....

    Due to my line of work Zara are a client. If we can get enough pledges I reckon I could get it in to the hands of the right person in Sociedad to see there is a market to do a lomited rerun of the original shirt. Up to you guys if you want to do a kick starter project or petition, I would be happy to pass it on.

    Absolutely. Paul Smith did a limited reissue of the shirt Matt Smith wore in Doctor Who after enough fans asked.

    First post here but I've been following this thread for awhile. Would love to sign a petition to bring back this shirt!

    I wonder if this might not be a separate thread in itself. Would be more visible, plus a great many people are watching this thread for activity so they can get the reproduction shirts they paid for. -{

    Dave,
    Maybe you can suggest to him that he verify each size for accuracy before he starts mailing these out.

    Similar but not identical. I had to look closely though.

    Hello gents. Any updates? It is the 7th so the shirts should have shipped by now if they're to arrive in 4 days.

    Thanks everyone

    Is there a difference between this limited run and the Indy version? Just curious
  • welshboy78welshboy78 Posts: 10,318MI6 Agent
    Is Indys even washed (crinkled)?

    The pic on his site does not look right at all

    Yes, a quick update would be good, not least to arrange for someone to be in the house to sign for the delivery.

    Pockets missing!

    I know. I personally hate the pockets, took a while for me to find one without. Pockets always remind me of schoolboy shirts for some reason. First time I'd worn this in a while so took photo.
