@00Tyler, I have contacted Hart a few times, most recently yesterday. He has assured me that my ED shirt will be sent next week or he will refund me. I await with consternation. Unfortunately you have to keep pressing him.
I got the same response. If anyone has one that fits like a Med (39" chest), let me know. I was on the original order, and kinda bummed mine was lost.
Well my XXL arrived today. It had arrived ages ago at my US post addy and I had not bothered to forward on until I had more things delivered.
Initial thoughts:
Box - nice touch! Im no 28 / 100!!
I had the original Zara for a while and this is VERY VERY close in my opinion material wise, excellent job by Hart!!
I'm a 43 / 17 shirt wise hence I had an XXL!! This was def the correct size choice as now I can get it nipped and tucked to a more fitted shirt. The length of the shirt is long as everybody else mentioned.
Overall very happy!! I realise these projects are a nightmare and prob the project manager wished he had not had bothered lol so many thanks to Hart. It was certainly worth the wait!!!! I think a quick wash to crease the shirt more and it will be spot on!!!!
I have one that fits medium for sale - PM if you're in need of it.
I have an XXL and an XXXL, both fit like a Large for sale! Please message.
Can someone confirm that the xl fits like a medium? Anyone do a pit to pit measurement on an xl for me? Cheers.
I received my ED shirt from Leonard a while back but was out of the country on business. I've only just been able to try it on over the weekend and was saddened to find that it fit like a smock. It's a size XXL (which fits like a Large), so I'm looking to trade it for someone with an XL, or even an L perhaps. Please PM me if you're interested and looking to size up.
Kind regards,
Craig
I did not ever receive my shirt. I moved half way through the process and the shirt was sent to my previous address, even after informing Hart twice of the move and updating my PayPal info during the move. At some point, the item was lost and never made it to me or back to Hart. After the issue was discovered, I tried to work with Hart to resolve the issue. But here 3 months after I was suppose to receive it, I have no shirt and I'm out $170. So I'm calling Hart out here publicly now. I appreciate the work you did, and from what I hear the shirt is awesome in person. But you made a mistake and failed to deliver to me, and have made little effort to correct that. I realized from the beginning this was buyer beware, but I just thought I'd share my experience.
Credit to Hart for taking on this project, but there seems a lot of problems with comms, English not being his first language. Now im late to the party on this, and when I posted on this thread that I was looking for a shirt that fitted like a medium. Hart contacted me and said he had some spares and I needed xxl. I wasn't convinced of this sizing, from what I read on here. So asked for a pit to pit measurement and paypal details , and stating I think I need a large ( in his sizing). After a while I got a simple reply, that I needed an XXL. I realise hes probably a busy chap, but I wont be buying from him, as I think im going to have to spend a fair bit on tailoring the shirt to fit, where Magnolis is not much more and will be made to measure. I cant help think that he has a bunch of xxl left, and he was pushing me towards that size.
Mine was too large too, but it was pretty easy to get a tailor to make alterations, so now into the bargain I have not only an authentic looking Enjoying Death shirt but also - finally - my first made-to-measure (well almost) short that fits perfectly.
Or as Bond says in Casino Royale: "It's tailored".
If you've spent $170 on the shirt, spend a bit more and get it made perfect for you - probably cheaper in the long run than postage and insurance if swapping shirts.

Or, buy one from Magnoli, who will make one to measure, and price will include DHL to your door. In the UK it cost about £15 to take up the hem on a pair of trousers, some people have had to carry out quite drastic alterations to the shirt, so the price racks up. Now I have no connection wth Magnoli, just a happy customer. Saying that, I have not seen any new pics of the Magnoli shirt, but for me, it will be 'Near enough', im not looking for a SA collection piece. His shirt is $196 delivered for a made to measure shirt, so not bad value. Whats stopping me pulling the trigger on one , is I want to see a pic of the updated version. Magnoli states on his site that the picture is a prototype version. I want the shirt to be for what it was originally intended, casual wear. Magnolis prototype version has a more formal collar, stiffened, by the look of it. This is where Hart has nailed it perfectly. Shame about the sizing.

Magnoli's is more brown than blue, and the length indicates the measurements were as disregarded as the email I sent expressing these concerns.

After the ED sizing issues and the above result, would love to see Dan and Royale Filmwear take a swing at this shirt.
Def a great project for Dan

Agreed! What say you Dan? I know you've got a couple other projects at least that you are working on but this would be a great addition to your (and ours) collection.

agree
Anyone has it in XL or XXL+ and willing to sell?
