David Chu Windowpane Dress Shirt - Long Sleeve  (For Men)
 
Quality, but sizing is a mystery
By OCULUSVerified Reviewer from Rensselaer, NY on 04/03/2008

No sleeve length provided
Best Uses:
Going Out, Office
Describe Yourself:
Conservative, High-end shopper
Chest Size:

Neck Size:

Bottom Line:

Comments:
Even after calling STP, the sleeve length remained a mystery. I gambled-- because Euro shirt sleeves run long-- and won. I am a 16.5 x 35+ in American shirts; here, a 17" neck proved about 36 sleeves so I was fine, but I suspect normal/shorter-armed guys would need to have the sleeves altered. Otherwise good fit and high quality.

Comments:
Great sweater made of high quality and very soft cashmere that feels great against the skin. Doesn't feel fragile at all, but is light (not chunky) at the same time. Easily comfortable three seasons, and cool summer evenings. The vertical ribs at the top of the sweater (over the shoulders) and collar adds to the classy, unique modern design. Zipper works great to turn the sweater into a mock turtleneck when the temperature drops. Bravo David Chu for a well designed and perfectly Italian tailored semi-formal sweater! The light olive green is a beautiful color; not the "neon-ish" light green shown on the web site. A fantastic change from the sea of black, gray, navy and cream cashmere sweaters everywhere. Although I normally wear a 38 medium, the small was better suited to my body type (6', 165 lbs). Feel like buying another in a different color!

This shirt looks great. I got it today & I received many compliments already. The first thing you'll notice is the high quality of this product. The shirt is well made (Italian of course). I can wear it for a formal occasion or for a night out at the club (either wearing dress pants or jeans) the shirt can be used as formal or casual shirt because it has a modern look but it is also very elegant.

Nice piece, but like so many Italian goods, absurd MSRP. I suppose someone somewhere might drop [$] on this, but I feel I paid fair full retail at [$]. Low-key and rather plain, but versatile for indoor/outdoor comfort.

fineprod.If itholds up/Neg.Needsdryclean
By Trudy from Lake Havasu City, AZ on 01/09/2008
Pros:
High Quality
Cons:
Expensive, Heavier material, Needs dry Cleaning
Best Uses:
Dressy ocassions only
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
Dressy occasions only due to the fact that it has to be dry cleaned and not hand washed. If it was washable, It would be enjoyed MUCH more often, on a daily basis to compensate for the price. He wears this only in the winter months here in AZ.
