    Swimming trunks

    Re: Sunspel, yes, I own a pair, which is why I was comfortable making the recommendation. Easy to find in the UK. Expensive, but less so than Orlebar Brown. Classic, flattering cut, at least on me. I'm mid 40's. 6.5 inch inseam. Short, but not too short. Functional. Zippered pocket, side...

    The unofficial Drake's London Appreciation Thread

    The Quarter Zip Sweatshirt I was looking at had its priced hiked from $290 to $345 sometime over the last week. So despite the numerous the-prices-are-too-high complaints that are common around here, Drake's seems to think they're not high enough. Ugh. My fault for sitting on it. PSA: Saks has...

    The unofficial Drake's London Appreciation Thread

    Wondered over to the sample sale after work as I live not too far away. Got there around 4:30pm. Were more employees than customers, though it was picking up as I was leaving. So, so many fleeces, seemed like close to 1/5th of all rack space. All boucle, no casentino. Only a handful of chore...

    Ratio Clothing - Custom Shirts - Official Affiliate Thread

    I never purchased their made in USA shirts because of the quality. I paid the premium because I wanted to support an American firm, with American workers, made in a factory that I was fairly confident was treating its workers fairly. It's not like sewing is a precision-manufacturing industry...

    Ratio Clothing - Custom Shirts - Official Affiliate Thread

    Sorry, not sure, I haven't ordered from them since pre-pandemic, when they were using the Garland factory. If you're looking for a higher quality fabric, they have some Thomas Mason oxfords under their "Legacy" collection. Based on prior experience the TM fabric is nice, but it definitely...

    Ratio Clothing - Custom Shirts - Official Affiliate Thread

    Ratio used to have all their shirts made in Garland, North Carolina, in a factory that was owned and operated by Brooks Brothers. That factory did some contract work for other companies, though my understanding was that the bulk of their production was for Brook's own OCBD's. The Garland factory...

    Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

    I was looking at a pair of service boots in Loden Janus Calf Suede and see quite a lot of variation in terms of color. I'm wondering if it's the photography or the leather itself. My understanding is that loden is typically a green/brown mix. Here's an image taken from Viberg's own site...

    Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

    Stopped by the sale earlier today. For those who may be considering going tomorrow -- inventory was better than expected, as long as you're looking for boots. In size 9's there were two pairs of slippers (one brown, one black), three pairs of bluchers, zero sneakers, and maybe 50-60 pairs of...

    The unofficial Drake's London Appreciation Thread

    But the strong dollar means they could lower their US prices, convert back to pounds, and still come out the same. Drake's pricing really has gotten out of hand. $450 for jeans, over $700 for basic chore coats, their oxford shirts are up to $275 (as an aside a few months ago I inquired here...
