Well, if you do want a bespoke shirt, with the Capaldi collar, I have some good news for you - Budd are coming to you!

In May 2014 two of their top cutters, including James MacAuslan who cut the special collar on Peter’s shirt, are visiting the United States to meet customers and taker orders and fittings.
