PSA - Brooks Brothers RBC Plaza is having a 50% off Black Fleece sale on Friday. They are clearing out stock from other locations too. As you probably know, they are discontinuing the BF line. They had the C&J black grain medallion cap toe boots (9.5 was the smallest size) for around $650.

Is the 50% on top of the 40% they currently have on most Black Fleece items? Or more realistically 50% only friday instead of the current 40%?

Brooks Brothers? Available in-store only? I can't find the boots listed on their website.

I was just at the Bloor BB store and checked out the BF stuff. So I was told it's currently 40% off and on Friday will hit 50% and eventually 60%.

As for the items... well interesting fun design and good fabrics and nice construction, but you've really got to commit to the 'look' there and have the right shape to fit that stuff and even at 50% off some of the prices are still pretty out there. I figured, as the above discussions have shown, that it's more about the odd items like shoes, jackets, etc that are worth snagging with the sale

Anything you saw that was appealing in terms of footwear?

Can anyone recommend a dry cleaning place for cashmere & a Loro Piana horsey (cashmere + leather) ? Had a negative experience with Dove.

BF are all in their "Milano" fit aka ESF aka Extra Slim Fit. Some even say they're slimmer than Milano.

Tried a pair of Milano pants before, but then I realized I have a pair of balls.

I'm in the Brooks Brothers near Union right now. All BF 40% off, including shoes. A great pair of black C&J pebble grain boots for $380. Only size 9.5, 10.5, 12 left.
