During the after Christmas sale I bought a pair of Peal & Co and Harry's of London. I received 25% off, plus another 15% off.

They had to order the Harry's from another store to get my size. I received them in the mail and saw I only received 15% off. I spoke with the manager and apparently the SA was not supposed to quote me the 25% on the Harry's, but they honored it since it was their mistake. She said that Harry's is never discounted that deep.

Does anyone know if the Peal & Co were supposed to be only 15% off as well? I paid around $413 pre-tax (black wingtip calf dress shoes).


Sounds like bullshit to me.

Peal is always included in store wide percent-off sales. Harry's is treated like Edward Green and is usually excluded from sales except the corporate 30% off sales which aren't stackable.

So what are these Loake?AS?

Thanks.

Sorry I don't know.

Thanks. I noticed it also made on the 224 last. Typically do people size down 1/2 or take true to size on this last? I read that it's a pretty roomy last. 


I'm not sure about US sizes, but I wear an UK 8E in the Chilterns, which are on the 224 last, and they feel shorter than my Onslows (325 last) in UK 8E. I am a US 9D Brannock.

Anyone know when there will go to next stage / final stage reductions?

There are some entirely unrequired and frivolous items I need to buy.

They are currently running the "winter clearance" sale online. I'm curious to see if the price is going to be lower later.
I had my eye on a "natural collection" sport coat during their after-Christmas sale but didn't pull the trigger. Now the price is still the same but the additional 15% off is no longer available.

I just got notice that my nearest store is closing. :(

Does anyone know if they do closeout sales for in-store inventory when this happens?


Are you sure it a real closing or one of those fake closings where everything must go?

I dunno, you tell me:

Looks real to me. I know my Palm Springs BB had a fake store closing years ago.
I would call them and ask. BB always has had great customer service.

I just picked these Peal suede wingtips at 50% off.  

http://www.brooksbrothers.com/Peal-Co.®-Distressed-Suede-Wingtips/MH00138,default,pd.html

Anyone have them?  Interested to see the color in person.  They are described as dark brown but definitely don't look dark to me which is good as I would prefer a mid-brown.  I'll post some shots when them come in a few days.


Maiden voyage today. I like 'em with jeans and khakis. They are darker than they appear below.

PSA . . . these boots are part of the ongoing clearance sale:

http://www.brooksbrothers.com/Vintage-Leather-Boots/MH00043,default,pd.html



I've been curious about genuine kudu (antelope leather, as opposed to the hefty, heavily oiled stuff Alden calls "kudu") for a while now, so I thought I'd check these out. I'm impressed. The leather is soft and pliable, yet very tough, and the calfskin lining gives the boots some luxury. They are comfortable out of the box and the last is sleek. There's no photo of the soles and the description isn't 100% clear about it, but as I suspected they are Dainite. At $349, I think they're an excellent bargain. By way of comparison, Epaulet just sold out of a run of Carmina kudu boots that retailed for $595.

Size-wise, 10D works well for me (I'm 9.5D in the Alden Barrie and 9.5E in the Allen Edmonds 1 and 5 lasts). A 9.5D is still showing on the website and I'll be returning a 10.5D so that should come available soon as well.
