Impressive Amazon delivery

I ordered a 'Made for you' t-shirt and it came for me today.  The fit is absolutely perfect and it will be a favorite summer shirt.  It is a bit pricey not because the individual one is too expensive but because it fits so well and is such good material I'll need to buy a bunch more.

The fit process is obviously a good one.  I wanted loose fit and this is just like I wanted.  It is a little light which will be a lot more enticing in a few months but is tolerable now as I wear an overshirt all the time even around the house.  

I think the last time I had something tailored for me was when I was 15 at Brooks Brothers.  

My modeling days are behind me

So. To me, the absolutely MUST is that the shoulder seam lands on the top of the shoulder. Just look where that damn shoulder seam is! And the sleeve needs to fall halfway between down and out. Just fucking perfect. Is it the kind of deal where now that you know it is perfect you can just say "again please but red" ?

That is about 1.5 yards of fabric. A nice knit like that will run you $15-25 a yard.

Very impressive.

Oh, yeah. Again in a medium fabric with long sleeves and a different color and a v neck. They make it easy to spend more money. I've really got enough long sleeve shirts but not so many that fit perfectly. And I do need T-shirt replacements.

Does it have a fabric details tab? I'm wondering what will happen in the wash and the fabric details will predict.

Also fascinating to me that all of the shoulder seams in the marketing shots on the Amazon page fall way inward. To me that says Shirt Too Small but then that's probably my old lady perspective.

Yeah, I'm not nearly as sensitive to how this should look. But I put it on and it draped perfectly. Like the most perfect I've ever had.

It's a freakin; genius find. very impressive.

also i found the fabric details. the fabric you got is the better, btw, for long time wear. 100% pima cotton (the heavier) i don't think will last as well. of course, at our age, "last" is relative.

You can see just by looking at it that the fabric is nice quality. Snappy!

[bill-schubert.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, and my modeling training helps.

Shucks, US only.

[bill-schubert.livejournal.com]

That's annoying. And maybe temporary. I think this is just beyond beta testing.

[stainsteelrat.livejournal.com]

Yeah, fingers crossed it arrives here. Does it measure you via an app and photos?

[bill-schubert.livejournal.com]

It is a temp app launched on your phone. You prop your phone on the floor at an angle and step back and stand in a position that mirrors the shadow on the phone until it says ok. It is sophisticated and obviously accurate. At least for me.

Wild. I'm going to have to get one. the T-shirts I like best are $50. (Though i have lots of free ones)

[bill-schubert.livejournal.com]

Hope it works as well for you.
