good luck getting your order from from Vente-Privee. I ordered a tie November 12, 2012. Sent me a tracking number December 5th, which never updated cause they never sent it out. Finally got it cancelled Jan 29th after calling once every 2 weeks or so. Still have not received the refund. Been meaning to call them again but I've been busy. **** that site.

my review's the 3rd one down.


Just email them using contact form on site, they always respond within two days. Had a lighter that got delayed and I ended up getting the wrong lighter but also like $50 in credit for compensation. Not bad if you lower your expectations a bit from Porter service to French standards

Supposedly all the sizes in that LVC sale were listed backwards. So instead of waist/ inseam; they were listed inseam/ waist. No idea if that's actually true, but it really tickles my schadenfreude.

Anyone know of any current or upcoming sales where the SNS Stark is available in size small. Damn, I've been looking for it for months and trying to avoid paying full retail at Mr.Porter.

How much are you trying to pay?

I think Gargyle had it for sale for like 225 a week ago, but it's over now.

Need Supply can bring it down to 250 with their 10% code. If you want lower than that then you have to buy a used one from someone selling

Gargyle didn't have any smalls, only a green one in medium left.

I finally got a medium stark in new sizing after waiting close to a month in b/s. they're not easy to track down.

Anywhere from $250 to $300 would be good. Through Mr.Porter, it's about $350

Yeah, I saw the NS one, but it's in some odd green color. Hoping for something a little more versatile....yes, being a little picky.

I called and confirmed that this is true. It worked out in my favor: 36 x 34 is actually a better fit for me than the 34 x 36 I had ordered.

They sent an email maybe yesterday telling everyone who bought them telling them that they listed inseam/waist and to cancel their orders if they didn't want them.

Pm me your email if you want in on the Banana Republic Friends and Family (50% off full price in store, 30% off online) discount. I think they do sign you up for their (daily) newsletter so I'd recommend using your spam email account.
