Spear point collar shirts

[Fastuni]

Several original 1930s German spearpoint shirts... too small for my neck alas.
But here your chance in the "Classifieds":

I noticed that period spearpoint collars usually were not as high, but more curved than most reproductions. Of course there was great variance, back then too, but I really dig the subtle (sizewise) but razorsharp fangs of period shirts.

It's got to take something to upstage my silverbelly fedora. "What kind of shirt is that?" I got asked at work today. Not rising to the bait, I replied: "A white one."

"No seriously," my tormentor said, "that collar belongs to 1930's movies." Still not being irritated, I said, "name a 1930's movie in which you have seen the shirt, or the collar, for that matter, and I will be impressed."

He couldn't and more to the point, he was actually trying, rather clumsily, to mock my hat. But as the rest of my work colleagues loved my attire, his insults fell short of their intentions.

My hat, for what it's worth, is a bespoke silverbelly, how I love it.

This can't still be true, can it? Has anyone in the been able to find something even passable for a spearpoint outside MTM companies?

No companies in the U.S. offer the spear point as ready to wear stock.

Strange that it seems spearpoint collars are not popular or available, they have an endorsement from one of the best sartorial dressers known.

Double 'O' Seven as seen in Skyfall.

This is one of their shirts that I'm wearing to work today.

I'm close to pulling the trigger on a Revival UK White shirt, is it worth? Can I wear it casually without a tie?

I would said no, as most spearpoint collar shirts were not designed to be worn without a tie but because of the soft collar design of them you could always use it as a camp collar, here is a photo of me with one of Revival Vintage shirt without and with a tie.

I would also recommend to look at their mend and make do as this where I got it at a discounted price.

Edit: here is a photograph of people wearing spearpoint collar shirts without ties

I have found a new supplier for the spear point collar, none other than Tina. The lady has been laid up for a while following surgery. She got bored with daytime television, but, after seeing Joe Pesci in Goodfellas, she was inspired by the shirt.
