The construction of the shirt is okay, can't say anything about the bird. What I don't like is the shoulderboard with the sloppy seams, looks like if the taylor got drunk between manufacturing the first board and the second.

Edit: I just see, the distance of the stitches also varies, must be an other sewing machine.

I wonder about the sloppy sewing on the one board? I have seen another pair in the past couple of weeks the same, one sewn well the other one not,

someone else might be able to say more

Hi Martin, I was doing some tropical shirt research and I saw your thread.

I do like everything I see here and is a great shirt IMO. I hope you get more comments

Beautiful set !!

The more sloppy the better ..

Most tropical straps were not made as a pair, but done by several people using the same material, one person was more skilled than the other IMO.

Makes sense.

Martin, did you smack your thumb with a hammer or something? ouch!

Maybe that's why the stitching is crooked!

Nice original shirt and straps.
