What They Sell at Daffy's -- New Blog on Daffy's Menswear - Page 26

No Mastai anywhere really. DCs are 69.99 - 10%. You'll need to take them to a tailor...not slim

Meh... passable in my book.

Anyone have experience with the quality of Gazzarini? Saw some stuff at 18th st. Particularly interested in coats. Thanks

Gazzarrini is superior to Armani in terms of construction, and much more interesting in terms of design.

There is most definitely canvassing (in blazers and suit jackets) going on.

Gazzarrini is often too daring and futuristic, but their traditional pieces are the best of both worlds ---- superb tailoring and clean lines.

Buy whatever you can - it's not easy to get in this country outside of yoox.com and shopstyle.com (which often refers you to yoox).

Gazzarrini has no retail distribution (other than the recently departed Daffy's) in this country.

The mastai/saitt group shirts are pretty picked over at the majority of the Daffys. Maybe they'll put more out, but big drop in available inventory last week versus today... Still a lot of those David Chu jackets which are a good deal if you can size right...

anyone have recs on socks? what brands to pick up at daffys?

 

There are rebadged Corgi's called something like Socks of Wales -- I can't remember exactly. $11.99 or $12.99 at fully Daffy's prices. I didn't see any at 44th St. today -- though all socks were 10% off. 

I'm gonna miss those shirts. They fit me perfectly out of the box.

Speaking of shirts, what do you guys think of the A. Basile "Custom" line? I've bought a number of these from Daffy's and always liked the fit and fabric.

I actually picked up a couple more today @ 44th street.

As for socks, I'm not that picky and have purchased tons of "Zaffrini" and another maker with an odd italian name that escapes me know.... Along with the occassional gold toe and whatever else they've stocked through the years.

Those shirts are made by the same company, I believe, but I am not sure if it's the same quality. Either way, I think they are a great value.

+1, really bummed they got picked clean before i got to them.

there are still some shirts from SAIT group around if you dig through the racks and don't forget to check the shelves with shirts still in plastic wrap. Often there are more on those shelves.

Definitely try the shirts on as they run skinny and I find that size 40 has a pretty wide variety of cuts. Often times they're too narrow across the shoulders and tight across the chest for me. That said, they're a huge value at 30 if you they fit. Maybe we'll luck out and there will be a re-stock at some point.
