The Official RRL Thread - Page 912

Got my RRL shipment today.

Star Iron Shirt is unreal. The fabric is amazing. Fit feels like my Spellbound shirt - fitted like an old school workshirt.



Also got the wool buffalo-check cardigan and the zip-front trapper shirt. I love the wool on these - thick and soft. I really want to like it, but the trapper shirt is just a funny cut. The buffalo-check is awesome, but not sure if it's right for me, either.




Then was in a store today and scored this Black Label water resistant, hooded biker jacket on sale. This is really an amazing piece with a lot of details. Feels like oil cloth, but it's a water resistant cotton/poly blend. The cuffs are zip and snap with leather trim. Adjustable cords everywhere. Removable hood. Really awesome jacket

I agree. Back to my original point that if you are creating an original work of art there are better quality canvases to start with. RRL makes a great everyday jean.

Wearing the navy zip cardigan and the smoke grey jeans. Go Penn State!

 

 

Where did you find that jacket? I want one..

Hope you're a Large...

...if not just call your local store and ask them to help you find it in your size.

This has been on sale since Christmas. Both my local stores in Philly have them. I think I saw it online too.

I never saw it online for some reason...and I'm a small :/

Does anyone know how these fit? I am a M in most RRL and Polo, are these sized fairly similarly or are the BL pieces noticeably slimmer?

I saw this exact jacket at Marshalls a few days ago, it was $299 IIRC. They also had these

Yes, RLBL is noticeably slimmer than Polo; compared to RRL, I think it depends on the piece. It's more like the slim fitting RRL shirts.

As explained to me by a sales associate once, size from fullest to slimmest is Polo > Purple Label > Black Label. Purple Label tends to be tapered. Black Label is slim. I've found this to be the case on almost everything I've tried. RRL is across the range, depending on the piece.

When Stu00a said that he has to size up on Black Label suits, that is exactly how they fit. For example, if you are 40R in PRL, it's not unusual to have to go 42R in RLBL. That's obviously a smaller step than M to L, though.


And.. saw this in Marshalls? I'm surprised.

The Mariner Four-Pocket Jacket is $360 in RL stores now. And it does not look as dandyish as shown on the site. Call the McLean, VA store, if Dastig does not have it.

My Marshalls and TJ runway store have plenty of PL and BL as well as high ticket Polo items. They have the "direct from Italy" section as well and sometimes get RRL suits. If you're ever at SoBe def go to the TJ runway store on 5th and Alton Rd.

Oh, I got mixed up. You are linking to the Peacoat.

Just to be clear, my comments and price are related to the Mariner Four-Pocket Jacket. I don't know how the Peacoat fits, but I assume it's the same.

They had both BL pieces and a couple more outerwear BL pieces I can't find on the website and a suede jacket.

My Marshalls and TJ Maxx are picked over. They never have anything worthwhile.
