I was wondering, now Noel is going out of business, I really need some MBA shirt asap.
I heard that they run a little small. What is the best thing to do? Buy the largest size available ( cos I ain't a skinny) or measure a shirt that fits me perfectly and send it over to Noel?
The last thing would be an option but has anyone of you had a shirt made by Noel with your own specs?
Thanks by advance for your feedback.
Regards
DJ

Supply your measurements. That's what I did, he sent me a medium, and it fits like it was tailored for me, but measurements leave nothing to doubt. Regards. Michaelson

Thanks for the info Michaelson. I will order one as soon as my first pay cheque comes in. And if it fits me fine, I'll order one more.
Regards

While we're on the subject, I just noticed that my new MBA shirt has an extra button on the shirt tail, as well as a pen pocket. I can't quite figure out the point of the pen pocket though, because if you put a pen in there and try to button it, the flap won't lay flat. I realize I'm a little behind the curve, but I'm curious - when were those changes made?

After spending over $459 on 3 shirts and a pair of pants, imagine my surprise when the package could not be delivered without my paying $86.29 for a customs fee. :evil: I understand what these charges are and have paid customs charges for my Westeds, but nothing like this. I could have bought another shirt for that. I will be wearing two shirts and framing the third...

Rick, I have often wondered why I have never paid custom fees on any items bought from the UK? I have jokingly stated before, that I live so far back in the sticks that the couriers don't know what customs are. Not that I am complaining. I just wonder why some folks have to pay, and some don't. regards, Fedora

Well, in order not to jinx my in-transit Wested, I won't say that I've never been charged any additional charges either.

Wait! I didn't mean that... I meant I heard I never paid.... err, I mean... this post was not written by Mike, so don't think about charging him any additional dues.
Though on my just arrived NH shirt and pants, no additional charges were levied. I wonder if it's because you ordered so much at once, thus having a larger dollar amount attached to the order.

I know from experience when purchasing stuff from the states and from australia, that if you get the exporter to write on GIFT you do not pay any import tax. The only time I have had to Pay tax was on my Aldens as I forgot to ask the guys at aldens to add gift to the documentation. Everybody else I have dealt with has written gift on the documents. Hatsdirect are good at doing it , they do it automatically.

Yeah,
I just received my 2 shirts and 1 pair of pants from Noel yesterday and had to choke up $74 bucks.

:
I don't quite understand this either. Nearly another shirt.
