Things go on sale for many brands all the time. Personally I only buy and keep things at full price that I love and even if they go on sale I don't really care. I never bought any JE item because of instant sell out or any other hype.

I buy plenty of other items on sale too. These are sometimes keepers other times I sell them later.

In the last year I had to rebuy much of my wardrobe so I picked up a lot of pieces. I don't really have a big need anymore so will get select items. If you like something, it's always justified imo.

Season 8 or season 9 price points? I think everything is going up, they are trying to move from middle tier to high end. I imagine the riders will stay at the same price point. Maybe a slight increase in the stadium jacket, but I have a feeling all the sweaters (considering they are going to do that cashmere collection) and the seasonal pieces (suits, shirting, etc) are going to be pretty expensive (and sit).

Hopefully the terry items don't go up (like those kakes we saw for obscene prices on barneys)

Edit: just a weird thing I was thinking about, I wonder if th suiting didn't sell well: we didn't see any formal suiting or formal attire at all for the spring collection. Maybe a change in direction?

If they're using premium materials then of coarse price will go up, but If material based products in terry and others used in the past go up...then yeah that's a middle finger to the consumer.

Only one I'd get is the slate kake, still upset I missed that one before. Hopefully the terry hasn't changed much since then. Is the mock panel looks larger now?

I have the slate and I think I wore it a few times only. I think I like charcoal better or even plaster.

They look thick but I don't know how the terry is this season. Debating the mustard kake.

Seasonal kakes tomorrow....who's buying and who's waiting for sales ?
Seems like hoodies/ tees really pay the bills for JE. People never seem to get tired of buying them. Use that to experiment with different items and expand maybe.

I doubt they produce anything outside of mainline in very large quantities. Looks like it all sits and hits sale but for all we know it could be like 5% of supply.

The other items are still relatively new as far as their business goes. They don't make a lot usually and it seems like retailers over bought this season.

Resale already dropping a reasonable amount. Not saying I would pay 300ish for the vandals personally, but it could be worse
