I actually really like Porter's approach..giving early access to people who've spent over a certain threshold.

Are you just guessing or is that fact? If fact, how did you come across that information?

Am I the only one who feels an aura of secrecy surrounding this Porter VIP thing! People are acting really tight lipped about it like its a secret society or something.

1. Reference to Dragon Ball Z
2. It's more a blanket dibs, na-na-na-boo-boo-I'm-better-than-you-stick-your-head-in-doo-doo aura.

:laugh: That's funny, because the guy at the register checked with three other people before giving me the discount on the side-zips.

Apparently neither the good people at the Walnut St H&M in Philly nor I are particularly good with reading comprehension. :embar:

This is false. What it seems to have happened (this is based on inference from the posts here) is that Porter has recognized its best customers, those who have spent a over certain of threshold during the year the and given them a shot before the founding members. In fact, i've seen no evidence this year that founding members will be recognized with sale access before the general public.


As a founding member, I was told the same thing. No founding members sale scheduled this time around and "certain members" would be notified of exclusive private sales. I guess I didn't spend enough last year to qualify this time. :)

It was nice while the Founding members sale lasted...I've been the beneficiary of Lobbs, RLPL, T&A and Brioni the last couple of years so I can't really complain. Back to Plebeian status :)
