The Official RRL Thread

[slam]

What is the deal with the limited denim? Are these pieces hard to come by? I ordered two pairs of jeans, and really like both. One was this pair of non-limited low straight jeans which seem like I could wear everyday:

Low Straight Selvedge Jean

And the other I also like, but think they would be hard to make an outfit for since they are so unique. I'm thinking oversized basic tops for this one. But the jeans are actually where I think jeans are headed these days - wide, loose and high waisted:

I'm thinking of keeping the first, but wanted to know if I'm making a mistake since maybe limited jeans are sought after. I'm guessing it is just marketing 101. Can anyone help me out with limited RRL stuff?

I grabbed a pair of the low straight on sale . Excellent Jean's. I saw the limited edition on sale, but not a fan of the paint splatter. But if you like them and will get some good wear out if them then keep them. After all the price is right. As for the Limited Edition label, I believe it's a marketing thing. I usually forget what piece's I own after wearing them a few times what's limited and what's not. I always try to buy my RRL clothing based on what I really like and will wear. Not on what someone at the company decided to slap a Limited Edition label on. Nothing worse than buying expensive clothing that's just going to sit in your closet that you don't wear, but bought based on a Limited Edition label. Just my humble thoughts.

The only thing I don’t buy is raw these days I wear jeans once a week I don’t enjoy the break in process...

True that. I'm in my 50's, by the time I break in raw Jean's I'll be a old man. Lol

Likewise, although I’m approaching 50. Hand distressed denim for me!

I mean, I don't know exactly what he's wearing, but I was in the West Broadway store not long ago and they have the full navy pinstripe suit ensemble he appears to be wearing. So call a store maybe.

Thanks, somatoform. I may try that.

You know you’re deep in the kool-aid when a $185 t-shirt makes sense...
