The Official RRL Thread

[King Leer]

the new "American Graffiti" stuff is out at both Barneys Uptown as well as the Flagship RRL Store. I didn't see it but a friend of mine did. Said it was ok, nothing essential thus far...
Going to have to check it out myself sometime this week

Some of the spring flannels look good. My first experience with an RRL flannel this winter has been perfect, I think i'll go for one in a spring color / weight

Looking to purchase some RRL raw Denim. Is the RRL fit similar to the APC Petit Standard, where you size down 2? (does it stretch?)

Is there a difference between RRL Raw Selvedge and RRL Slim Fit?

Petit Standard has a MUCH lower rise; only three buttons whereas the Slim Raw and Slim Bootcut from RRL have 5 buttons. so the rise is alot different (and in essence, the seat of the jeans too)

the Slim Raw are similar moreso in the waist area to the New Standard, but the tapering is slightly different, lending itself moreso to the Petit. (I've had all three)

the diff. between the Slim Fit and the Raw is that the Slim is a washed pair and it's really alot more tapered and tighter around the hip and knee, but the Raw will stretch alot, and they'll look more like a New Standard.

Is the Slim Fit selvedge?

Do you have any pics of your RRL jeans? Which jeans have the design on the back pockets?

 

[King Leer]

The Slim Fit are Selvedge, I've got a pair of the Slim Bootcut and a pair of the Black Slim Fit. The Slim Boot i've got a size 32 and they fit perfect. The Slim Fit i've got a pair of 33x30 and they're even tighter than the Slim Boot (but still nice)

The Slim Fit DO NOT have a design on the back pocket (at least the recent ones) they've got the little RRL on the coin pocket. the Slim Boots do have the slight design loops on the back, but I've taken them off. I don't have the Slim Raws anymore, I got them years ago and sold them last year. they stretched out too much (though I wish I kept em anyhow)

http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=152200 Are those like the ones you had? If they stretch, how should I size down? Sizing on RRL seems weird and random, should I go with the APc instead?

 

[King Leer]

I had a different pair, ones that said RRL in script on the back pocket...before they started putting the logo on the coin pocket. I could direct you to a pair of APC's easier as I used to work there

If I bought APC, I would buy the PS. I hear you size down 2 on those.

RRL will be present at the Inspiration show this Fri/Sat in LA. Check the Inspiration thread for more details. Should be fun!

is the store on collins ave in south beach worth visiting while i'm there this weekend? how much RRL is in there?

 

[edubs01]

The RRL shop is the top part of the RL Miami shop. They have a decent selection....mostly the basics and denim. It is def worth checking out.

 

[grundletaint]

sweet. thanks!

RRL to me is the BEST.

 

[grundletaint]

so i dropped a metric assload of coin in there today. this store is a sartorial hardon. i can't imagine an RRL flagship...

i broke my camerea so here's a ****** photobooth shot of the haul, complete with backward text and everything.

the pic does nothing resembling justice and this orange western shirt is *******. the dark blue one is a sweatshirt and the striped shirt is reversible.
