Non selvedge and I didn't like the material. A bit too washed out and fuzzed out.

Surprised I saw an RRL shirt in Last Call by Neiman Marcus today. It was XXL though. And price wasn't that great at around $110.

Hmmm, shame. I would have thought that at $400 it would have been amazing! I was thinking it would be super thick and heavyweight - like a shirt-jacket. I have a chance to get it for $120 - not worth it?

The better question is where are you getting the shirt @ 70% off?

Have a friend at RL - I think her employee discount is either 40-50% off. Nothing has really grabbed my attention lately except the Aran shawl collar pullover (which I missed out on, dammit) and this shirt.

Question of the day.....What is the purpose of the 2nd buttonhole at 45* on the western vests? I have theorized to button just one button for work or quickdraw and others said for pocketwatch chain.

I concur with the pocket watch chain. Great question though! RRL, all in the small details.

40% off sale items, 50% off full price items.

I would not mention what you mentioned, since it is grounds for termination of employment.

I always assumed that it was fine if they we're purchasing something as a gift for a friend / family.

Wow...40% off sale price? If I worked there at that discount my take home would be 0 due to A/R's.
