When it comes to classic reproduction pieces made in Japan, Buzz Rickson is one of the first names that comes to mind. This tribute to one of the most praised, worn and loved shirts is just another great version by another good company. If you're into the longer collar then this lightweight Japanese chambray version might just be for you. I know some people are quite biased whether they go for something more subtle by EG, or a piece like this with perhaps more accurate references to the original. Either way, it looks very nice and works with many outfits. The pocketing, gussets and tonal buttons all look sharp and I particularly love the tags and stamps on the inside of the garment to top it off. For $150, it's one of the best work shirt deals out there and it's available at Blue in Green.

I have this shirt and it is my favorite chambray. Looks just like my dad's 1960s USN-issued shirt.
It's also at Self Edge.
been eyeing this for a while now...can anyone describe the fit/material?
I've always wanted this shirt, but the sleeves are just too short for me. It's a very accurate repro in that it is relatively boxy with shorter sleeves.
Yeah what's the fit like? I would really like to own this one.
There are detailed measurements on Self Edge: http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=78&products_id=341
