Any recent changes for WPG shirt?

Post by Indiana Jake »

I ordered a WPG shirt earlier this year. (late spring 08 collection!) It seems different from the other WPG shirts I have just recently seen. I wear what would be an 18 x 36. The shirt I bought was thick cotton for a shirt, and had an inverted box pleat at the rear yoke. The new one I saw had no rear box pleat , and was made out of a lighter weight fabric. An excellent shirt if I must say so myself. However, it was not my size. Can anyone else describe any of the WPG shirts they have seen lately?

I recently purchased two, and I love mine. I have never seen one of the older ones, but mine does not have the box pleates and they are made of light weight cotton. I think the color is spot on. They do run a little large in size. I usually need an XL, but the large fits me fine. I wash mine in cold and let it hang dry and have not noticed any shrinkage. I highly reccomend them. Hope this is helpful.
