I was waiting to see the finished product and a size chart, imagine others might be as well. Don't want to hold things up though, I'll be e-mailing Luigi today as I'm sure Mantis will square away the details.
But does anybody know why Tom Ford made the prototype salmon pink? I wouldn't be surprised if that has some people being stand-offish. Horrible color.
The color was what they had in the exact fabric at the time they made the prototype. Its a linen material that seems rather unique. And for those that are emailing Luigi, this wont happen till ALL the details and changes are correct etc. So this is just an email because they need to confirm that there really are 40 plus people interested...right now they don't have that.
Sorry gents, I've been away for a few months and didn't see the news. I've been working on my MBA lately and I tore all the ligaments in my right ankle recently.
Guys I was on the list for this and apparently completely forgot about the thread. Am I too late!? If not could someone please tell me what to do to get the order in.

EDIT- Email Sent.
If I remember correctly the shirt was sent back to Luigi with some recommended changes but nothing has been finalized regarding orders so I think you're ok!

Awesome, well I sent my email so will wait for him to confirm.
Is Luigi still on vacation? ?:)
I think I'm working for the wrong company...sounds like I should be working for tom ford.
No he is not, but everything takes time and pushing the guys at TF when they are essentially doing us a favour (albeit a profitable one) gets you nowhere. David will have it under control
This went out from Luigi...nice way to start 2019:

With you there 007jb it seems to have jumped for us UK guys , plus another 30euros for posting I believe.
I'm suddenly twitchy but don't want to be the person to cause the project not going a head.
Is it worth emailing Luigi ?

Nevertheless still exciting news, well done mantis.
Mantis are you going to do a Vlog on sizing as we only get 1 chance and your vlogs really help me, every time you do them so far I have a 100% record on not cocking it up

Is it a cotton, linen combo or 100% linen?
In for 2.
Excited to learn it's not just a cotton polo.
Thanks again.
That said, I'm still in. I'll email Luigi now.

I was thinking the same thing! Once i take into account currency conversion, s/h, and duties I'm looking at $1430 for 2 polo shirts
