Does anyone know what fabric this Drake’s oxford is? Can’t tell.

Looks like Giro Inglese (cellulare, Airtex) to me, though I'm happy to be corrected. Pique-adjacent, but weave is more open, usually softer, more luxurious, more breathable. Enjoy in good health!

Thank you! I just can’t find any info on it and wanted to make sure I could wear it the same way I would any other white OCBD. It’s for my rehearsal dinner paired with a knit navy drake’s tie.

I'd like to know how that's possible.

We run an outlet store selling past season collections, you will not find anything from this collection or last but like 1/2 years old stock you will find from us. Can check us out and see our reviews plus search us in the thread for people mentioning how happy they are with shopping from us

Anyone with the stonewash denim have experience with the fading? I have a pair and was wondering how much the color has faded with wash and wear? Contemplating a bleach wash pair, but if my stonewash pair will get to a similar color over time, I might just save my money and spend it on some fatigue pants instead.

Great silhouette on jacket and trousers, nicely done.

Thank you so much !
The pants have a little more volume than what I usually wear, but it doesn't work too badly with this jacket.

The notes for the shetland sweaters say to size up. Is this the right move? I do not trust their measurements these days...

What are the trousers if you don’t mind me asking? Fit looks great

I wouldn't. I am a L in most brands these days, due to having broad shoulders, but I'm a M in Drake's Shetlands from a few seasons and the fit is spot on

I take the regular shetlands TTS and they fit accordingly. The cable knits are a bit tighter and they don’t give as much. For those you might consider sizing up.

Just adding my voice to the chorus of those who take their shetlands TTS. I even have one in a size down and the fit is still fine. It's an inherently forgiving, boxy silhouette.

Thanks! Is this based on the current season? They seem to be made by Harley rather than Jamieson's now

Factoid?
