    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Definitely not intentionally going for a Thom Browne look. :) I would need to extend the sleeves out probably about 1/2-3/4", which is pretty typical for me. I can never buy OTR with pre-cut functioning buttons, but that is a another story. I think the seat looks awkward because I haven't...

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    What do you guys think of this jacket I picked up from the year end sale - fit and color? Is it versatile enough to wear year round if paired with earth tones in winter? I'm a bit on the fence. Would like a standard tweed at some point, but approve of something that could be used 3-4 seasons...

     Since we are on the topic here are the tingleys in action this morning with my walnut strands.

    I agree with the Tingley recommendation 100%. I got some for about $20 on Amazon vs. the $95 AE wants for a pair of swims, plus they cover more of your shoe. Have worn them in some nasty stuff and haven't had any problems.

    That is what I thought, leather is leather even with a rubber or lugged sole. Anyway, I picked up a pair of Bellevue's today and have a calf Gobi on the way to compare. Tried the Bleeker's as well but wanted something a little bit more casual and rugged.

    Question for all the up north, bad weather boot (Dalton, Bleeker st, Long Branch, etc.) wearers (appropriate today since we just got a foot yesterday). Do wear a "rubber" (swims, totes, etc.) over the top when taking out in snow and slush or just go as is? If no to the cover, how do they hold...

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

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    I just picked these Peal suede wingtips at 50% off. http://www.brooksbrothers.com/Peal-Co.%C2%AE-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...

     Send em back. They can do better and you will always be disappointed otherwise.

    What is the step up fee? Is it the full difference in price between the seconds and retail on the firsts?

    Quote CSmitty: I am not an AE/BB expert, but your 11.5's look fine to my eye. For what it is worth, I haven't really noticed any stretching or poron setting in my BB strands to make them fit bigger than when they were new (have had them for over a year). If they have, it is subtle.

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Does anyone have information on who makes these field chukkas for BB? Link I just received them and all it has is a made in Italy sicker on the bottom and a size stamp on the tongue besides the BB stamping on the heel lining. They are nicely put together and the suede seems to be of a...

    I had my SA looking for that for me in a 42R. No luck. Settled on the b/w plaid Fitzgerald instead for $509. Still very pleased.

     Yes, but the Napoli didn't work for me because I have long arms and the sleeves didn't have enough to let out. The sienna had longer sleeves.

    Option 1 - SS Sienna - 42R Option 2 - BB 1818 Fitz - 42R - Micro Plaid Which do you think is a better fit (both unaltered at this point)? I would have the waist take in on the Fitz to provide an equivalent fit to the Sienna. The right shoulder of the Sienna has a minor divet. The...

    Can anyone confirm if the Sienna is full or half canvas? I have seen it mentioned as both from searching through the forums. Also, is red line and suit up the same thing? I have seen the Sienna referred to as both, but I am not sure if suit up refers to higher end fabrics or if they...

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    I suppose I could always try a return and repurchase if nothing else. Assuming they count that as in-stock, because I thought I saw mentioned somewhere the after Christmas sale only applies to in-store merchandise?

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Does anyone know how BB is for price adjustments? I recently bought a grey plaid 1818 when they had the one day 40% off, but if the after Christmas sale is 50% off (or more?) I would obviously rather have that price. The suit still has tags on and is unaltered as I was debating a couple of...
