Hi, just wondering if anyone has the chore jacket in Linen and attempted washing theirs? I feel mine is probably half a size too big for me and wondering if I would get much success washing it in the hope it would shrink slightly (but not too much). I know the fit is supposed to be a bit boxy and relaxed but feel it would look better if it was slightly smaller.

Anyone find the armholes on their chore jacket, at least in denim, a bit large? Perhaps it’s because I sized up, but lifting my arms pulls the fabric in the arms and across my back, seemingly given that the armhole is both large and away from my body. Wondering if anyone else has found this, or did I just mess up in sizing?

Some new fleeces, bucket hats, and bandanas:


Oddly attracted to the patched fleeces, especially this one: https://www.drakes.com/what-s-new/ecru-orange-and-brown-boucle-wool-zip-fleece-vest - don't think I could afford a one-off like that though. Very fall-esque
okay but I feel like $145 for a cotton banana is actually insane

The price is so marked up considering the quality of these Bandanas are just below average in terms of the hand-rolled edges...

I don't believe Drake's accessories have handrolled edges. They are all machine rolled and sewn, like Rubiancci's pocket squares.

Well I'm not an expert on this. But I am sure the four or five untipped ties I own from Drake's (made at their old haberdasher st. workshop) are hand-rolled. I have also got a pocket square from drakes, hand-rolled as well but not neatly made. Rubinacci pocket squares are handrolled? But I cannot speak for their tipped ties and new Italian made Bandana sure.
