US$ 240 Loakes vs US$ 428 Peal & Co.

Years ago I had a Borders Reward corporate card. Now it's dead (with Borders). Is there a comparable way to enroll for a corporate card these days?

Can anyone comment on the following shoes. Good quality? Fit? 

 

Does it look odd? Never seen a loafer with a single buckle and not sure whether it looks awesome or just weird.

I like them but looks like you can get them direct from Rancourt for $295.

I guess with the 30% corporate sale that's a better deal and it's a lot easier to return to BB though.

This past summer I bought some Rancourt made Ralph Laruen buckle loafers. I sized down and while they were snug at first
they stretched out and work great sans socks. Then I bought a pair of beefroll Rancourt brand loafers from BB in the same size.
Those suckers were so tight I could barely get my feet in them. Those went back.

There's a giant thread in SW&D about Rancourt if you care.

Are Filson bags sold in the stores or just online?

Online only unless stores got them in for clients...

I have seen them on the shelf in the Madison Avenue store; that store might be "special" however since it is their flagship.

So how does this work if you don't work for a company registered with BB for the discount? Is this link to just make up your own organization?

no, you need to work for a company that is included.

That said, if your company isn't on the list, recommend it to HR. Its free for the company (as far as I know) and a nice benefit.

This is the same membership route as the Borders Rewards was before they went under.
Just enter "Corporate Perks" in the company name.

Does BB email corporate members the discount? Or do they mail out something?

 

I received snail mail a week ago stating that there was a F&F sale coming up, but it didn't give me a code or anything. Might just have to drive to the actual store.
