The Official RRL Thread

I find that my size is exactly the same in the different style jeans - low straight, slim, slim boot, etc.

i did so much work and waited for so long to finally get my pair of low straight on the way to my house in the price that i can accept.

but i like the slim fit as well, so that will be another hunt later in the year.

Hey guys, just posted some slim fit Rigids and low straight Rinse on B&S. Also in my sig

 

[Froosh]

Damn Namor, what season are those from? Waist tagged 31 but actually 36!?

Blake posted some RRL in the Blake thread- nice things.

That's better than what I got. Called them and they said. "We got a good amount in stock for 75% off. " Verified twice that these were R-R-L. Drive down there and they have RLX and zero RRL. $#@$#@$#@$@$ And one purple label shirt that's torn. Guess my stock of RRL clothing will remain at one piece.

That guy rules. I wanna do shots with him and Dave Navarro at Planet Hollywood over a ripping guitar solo. ****, Ralph Lauren should hire him as "the face" of RRL.

+1. I just don't want to own anything he's tried on...

How do you find the difference in the thigh among the slim boot, slim, and low straight? I find that the slim boot thigh is just too tight for me. Is slim actually looser in the thigh, as I have heard?

This is true. Deeeeep discounts. Got off-white selvedge denim for about $30 a few summers ago, and just a few months ago got some navy cords for $15.

I saw the same thing at Wrentham last week. And Kittery just straight up sucks

Need to make a trip to the Woodbury Outlets in NY at some point...I bet they're getting in some stock.

question on the RRL jeans. I have a pair of selvadge "once washed 2" jeans. How do these differ from the "Rinse" wash? Instructions say wash at cold, but I always thought dark jeans should be washed hot. 411?

 

[wEstSidE]

you are in DC. call the g-town RRL specialist, man. or go in and ask in person, show him your jeans and compare.

i feel like the difference, if any, would be minor
