paging owners of RRL leather moto jackets. Do they generally run slim? Came across a wilkins jacket, if anyone owns that specific model

I don't remember that one in particular being very slim, it came out the same time as the knowles moto jacket that i owned and had a very similar cut which I found to run a little boxy if anything

I have the original one that came out a few years back - the leather is a little different to last years and I haven't tried the recent ones on but mine fits a little boxy - not much 'waist suppression'. I'd say it's typical of cafe racers designed to be worn with a motorcycle sweater underneath - but it's not loose/full cut.

I wear a Large in the Matlock workshirts (until last year where they started to run 1 size smaller; and I measured to make sure it wasn't the donuts ) and a large moto fits me nicely. 6" 220lbs.

What is the sale like at the stores?
Which store would have the largest sale selection?

It defiantly doesn’t look to have that slim look to them. Appreciate the feedback.

Ive been on the fence. The measurements provided are slightly slrgebin the chest and most likely too large everywhere else. as much as I want to make it work I think it will likely be too large. I’m 6’ 195 and wear a large comfortably in pretty much everything. It’s a shame since I really like the style.

Thanks for the info

Anyone can help to understand the difference between tag M and tag M 175/96A? I bought an item online with the second tag and I got the feeling that it runs smaller then a regular M... Not really sure, maybe is just the cut and design of that item, but better to know for future purchases.
Thanks in advance.

Been offline for a while and my SF rigids (https://www.ralphlauren.com/men-clothing-jeans/slim-fit-rigid-selvedge-jean/86417.html) are starting to show some real wear (around the knees, especially, with a minor tear). Two questions - for minor tears around the knees, what do folks usually do to fix/patch? Or you just leave as is?

Second question - I'd like to check out some other brands that compare favorably to the SFs that I do have. They could be raw (or not) - any recommendations in terms of fit, quality at a lower price point? (<$250). I've seen the usual suspects - 3S, N&F, Unbranded recommended but nowhere have I seen which fit compares well to the RRL ones I currently have.

TIA

yeah what the hell. ive never see. RRL in polo factory outlets

 

[JiiPee]

^^Yeah, really rare for me too. It was the Bicester Village outlet in the UK. That whole lot was touch over 400 USD

Belt is a Indigo blue color hand tooled one.

The company appears to be a lot more careful to protect the image of RRL and Purple Label by really limiting any of these two brands products from reaching the Polo outlets compared to a few years ago. If you do find some RRL in an outlet, it is a real score.

In the target price range I've owned denim from Sugar Cane and liked them.

While I have no personal experience with these brands, they are well-respected and fit your budget: Left Field, 3Sixteen, Japan Blue, Rogue Territory and Tellason. When on sale, these brands may also meet your criteria: Fullcount, Momotaro, Studio d'Artisan, and Samurai.

You can find good prices for higher-tier brands if you are willing to scour the web. I picked up a beautiful new pair of Stevenson Overall La Jolla 727 black jeans on the Denimbro market thread at 40% off standard retail price.

Thank you! I appreciate the info - I think I have narrowed down my search to (high side) 3S, Sugar Cane and RT and (low side) Unbranded and Japan Blue. From my research, these seem to be the most popular and at the end of the day, it comes down to fit. Might just buy 6-7 total pairs and return the ones that don't suit me! Thanks again.

For sure. About 6-7 years ago, I actually scored an RLPL tux at a RL outlet...and the outlet had a sale to boot!
