Clearance sales twice a year. The spring/summer items will be cleared out toward the end of summer.

Other sales interlaced in between but they dont reach the big markdowns as the twice a year ones

F&F and the Pink Pony are twice a year ones everyone is referring to.

They did this short summer of 2007, here:

 

All the tags from that season had this cool tropical look with a palm tree:  

 

 

 

The name of the line was "Indigo Isle."  If it's the same fabric (which it looks like), t's definitely an indigo-dyed soft twill, not denim.  I had these, but eventually sold them on eBay because they were cut too baggy and wide in the leg.  IMO, the officer cut is much more masculine.  Still, it's a lot of look to pull off in a short.  You pretty much are limited to white t-shirt.  

 

This jacket has the same pattern on the front and back as the item you've seen, although i prefer this particular style. I bought this off the RRL website Nov/December 2011. Hope that helps some. Best wishes

Interesting stuff. I guess to me, the thing that suggests jorts is the contrast stitching. If they had kept them plain I would be much more interested, but then I already have 3 pairs of the Officer's Chino shorts so wouldn't purchase these anyway.

Does anybody know where I might be able to pick this up in a medium. I know you all ain't to keen on requests like this, but it ain't on ebay, and I am pretty sweet on it - especially given the lack of decent jackets this season.

 

Thanks!

Big shouts to Saturdays . Thanks for the efforts ! Yes, there should be an online DB of previous years lines. Cheers!

 

Thanks to Nemo too! What is that pattern on that sweater you bought in Dec '11 called ??

I love the navajo/indian heritage items. Personally, i want a blanket shawl navajo printed one, just something to wrap around when cozying up on the couch next to a fire while reading a book and sipping tea.

HI 46n2

 

Unfortunately there is nothing on or inside the jacket to indicate what the pattern is. I do remember the website blurb saying 'Southwestern' pattern. However thinking about it, i'm sure Hoit might know how to contact the buyers, inside RRL who ship the stuff. The issue of course, is that the item is made in China, so do they choose the pattern or is it an RRL designer in the USA who sends them the product designs. There are two pieces of info on the jacket which might be of use to you :

 

1. SUPPLIER (hastag) 66139 - P0 (hastag)317137

 

2. PRODUCT CODE -RN41381 KV

 

This is the code for my jacket, but since its only just over 12 months ago, there is a very good chance, if you find the right people in RRL ,then they might be able to track down the pattern for you.

 

Good luck Dr Watson.

Does anyone know what the inseam length is on the 1936 Buckle-Back Dark Denim from this season? Also, is the fit similar to the standard Straight Leg?

Nemo's jacket was called the Beacon Jacket and the pattern was classed as just Blue Stripe Beacon. It was part of the Deadwood collection for Holiday 2011. Most of the Beacon styles produced by RL and RRL are reproductions of vintage patterns.

Hope this helps.

I wonder if 46n2's was also from the same collection, nothing suggests that it absolutely isn't...I barely even remember the Deadwood collection having items like that

btw the RN# is the same on every garment, its a registered id number that most retailers who import/export a large quantity of goods use.

But 46n2's has the vintage style label scroll (pointing upwards). To me that suggests vintage c. 1993 - 2000(ish).
