It's great to hear about a good men's shirt pattern! It looks wonderful.

A quick trip to the library and David Page Coffin's book and/or video will have you making a professional styled and constructed shirt sleeve placket in no time. The dark color doesn't let many details show.... I am pleased your son likes it so much & understands the effort on your part. Bravo!

I've made this pattern probably 10 times now, and I agree with everything you said. It's great as it is, but it's a good base if you want to add larger allowances and do a flat-felled seam, or do a more attractive sleeve placket. It also lends itself well to tweaking to a particular shape, as you found out. My DBF is only 5'6", and looks like he's wearing dad's shirts unless I make them. Very lucky son that mom sews!
