Luigi Borrelli - A Neapolitan Shirtmaker !

If you are in to buying dress shirts and sports shirts off the beaten path and like to buy your shirts somewhere, where there is still some old world shirtmaking attached to it and you also want to feel that you are wearing a name that does not represent a corporate purchaser that gets the garment from China and elsewhere, well then the Neapolitan shirtmaker Luigi Borrelli is your shirt supplier of choice. Borrelli's Luxury Vintage label comes right out of their century-old archives and emerges into a collection of dress and sport shirts built around timeless patterns and a proprietary garment-dyeing technique. These shirts are extremely soft and slightly weathered-looking and feature some of the finest dress-shirt details. Seam threads and mother-of-pearl buttons that are dip-dyed to match the fabrics, handmade buttonholes, hand-sewn sleeves, and, in some cases, collar stays - —which Borrelli uses even in polos and other sporty knits. You can keep the Ralph Lauren's but you should consider adding one or two Borrelli's to your closet. Once you check Luigi Borrelli out, I'm sure you will find some other cool stuff. And you will love his shirts!
