These are certainly handsome tartans and, like Mike, I was at first tempted to send an order to the USA for a couple of them until, again like Mike, I noticed the collar detail. Mike does not tell us what his objections are but, for me, it is the button-down style - I simply cannot bear button-down collars, and have passed on buying many a good-looking shirt as a result.

OK, I could choose not to button those collars, and I could snip off the offending buttons, but I'd still be left with the button-holes visible on the front of the collars!
Exactly Hamish!! In my opinion there is just nothing that can be done to make the appearance of this type of collar acceptable.
