The Official RRL Thread

Oh wow, looks like they got over a dozen RL67 offerings if you search the site. All kinds of materials. Do any of yours have the suede elbow patches? Not sure Im entirely in love with that look..

I think only the original RL67 comes with the suede elbow patches.

if it's brand new I assume remove suede patch is easy though (i.e. my assumption is if it's brand new remove it won't leave mark)

there is also an RRL version (to my surprise, kind just looks like the same thing, though I suppose bonus point if it's still made by Caruso)

Wool Herringbone Suit Jacket

and your Polo soft version with patch chest pocket (which I don't like) and smaller lapel (also I don't like), but again you might

Polo Soft Tailored Herringbone Jacket

rlpl has a something with similar vibe but different design (and smaller lapel too)

How can you preppy cosplay without elbow patches?

 

[clee1982]

I don’t know, man. The amount of rugby’s, polos, oxfords I bought from mainline polo in the past several months…. 😬

Im entering into my prep era haha.

Makes sense. It actually does make it a little more rustic and play nice with a western wardrobe for sure

 

[clee1982]

haha I mean PRL vs. RRL..., PRL is very preppy...

Librarian and tweed jacket with elbow patches seems like an ideal pairing!

Add a sawtooth western shirt and jeans for that three days of the condor vibe.

I'm actually really glad you brought this up! I've been on the hunt for a sawtooth denim shirt for the past few weeks. I got the black one from RRL and am getting this season's red but I want an indigo blue one. I don't think RRL has made one in a while, maybe because their core western shirts fills that spot for them.

Some dude had a Real McCoys one on Grailed and I wanted that one specifically because it was an older version and it had the four buttons on the wrist/sleeves as opposed to only three that they have on their current offering. I made him an offer and he deleted the item. Asked what happened or did it sell and no response. Neat. Anyway here's the current version:

DENIM WESTERN SHIRT / SAWTOOTH

The Real McCoy's reproduce products using methods and machinery of the past. For a successful reproduction, these garments require the sensitive minds of the detail-oriented Japanese craftsmen on every procedure.

I also hate the length from the last button to the hem on their current one; it's too much.

I found the older version new on another site but I don't know where the hell they are and with shipping it's over $400. Not paying that:

Joe McCoy Denim Western Shirt | The Signet Store

Recognized as the "Sawtooth Western Shirt," the Denim Western Shirt boasts of features favored in American Western wear: it has sharp double-pointed flap pockets and square snap-cap buttons, all impeccably sewn together by Japanese denim fabric.• 8 oz. Denim Fabric• Snap Buttons• Made in Japan...

I feel like the indigo fabric is better too.

Hell I even contemplated this one from Wrangler but I don't LOVE it:

I know other Japanese brands makes 'em like the Flat Head and I forgot which other ones, but they don't have the four snaps on the sleeve. Some of em only have two on the cuff.

Almost Vintage Style on YouTube did a video about how this is his favorite shirt from Brycelands but again, no fourth snap lol:

Sawtooth Westerner Shirt Denim | Bryceland's & Co.

10oz sanforized denim. Long in the body, and worn tucked in. The denim softens significantly and lighten with wear and wash. These are rigid, but sanforised denim, minimal shrinkage. Order true to size for a more tailored fit. Made in Japan

Anyway. If you or anyone here has any suggestions, I'm all ears. Unless RRL gets their act together and makes one; I don't mind waiting lol

I think this looks great. The coat is Ralph?

Ha I like saw tooth too, though already have a normal black one a black sawtooth feels kind too close to the same thing

Did anyone try to have the sleeves on the brown denim jacket shortened? My sa said they can do it but i am sceptical of the result

 

[WaltDud]

I don’t know why but the length looks perfect on the Nordstrom listing:
