speaking of watches can any watch aficionados speak on the safari watch inparticular

i love the look but dont know much about movements and stuff and was generally told stay away from fashion brand based watches

how is the quality compared to price point (i believe its like 3k)

And here’s the 39mm on wrist. Happened to be wearing it today; it’s often my Friday watch. I liked this size better for me. I echo what everyone else has said- not really a “fashion watch” (like an Hermès quartz), Swiss chronometer, beautiful details (I love the RL on the crown). Can’t say enough good things.

For fun, here’s Ralph’s Stirrup watch:

A few details from limited run high slims. I've wanted these since they were a beams+ exclusive in japan back around May and even got to try them on in Tokyo when I visited, but finally stomached the price thanks to a member on here. Details like this is why i keep buyin. Flattened RRL rivets, half selvedge on the outseam, RRL cowboy button, reinforced back pockets, left hand twill and a slew of other old Lee features. These have the measurements of a slim narrow fit aside from the increased front and back rise

Would love to know how high is high...if you have any desire to post some fit pics...it would be greatly appreciated. Wondering if they fit more like the slim straights from a few years back...or if they fit like slims but higher rise

Fit pic request seconded. These are very intriguing. I can’t wear slims but maybe with the higher rise. Appreciate your inventory of the details.

Fit pics below, a have a virtually non-existent butt so the high rise doesn't do me any favors when it comes to sagging. For reference these are a size 30 x 32, and I went with the usual 2 sizes down from true waist size

Anyone know if the eBay seller: rl_store sells RL goods on any other online platform besides eBay or how to contact him via mail or PM?

Got these during the ongoing FF sale to check out and they are actually really good - recommend for some everyday wear:https://tinyurl.com/ybokkw4c

Not as thick as RRL rigid chino's...but to be frank, this is a good thing manytimes...

Yeah I’d second this, they’re pretty good. Last year’s version got super wrinkled. Newer not quite as wrinkle prone.

I'm wearing them for the first time today after washing and drying them. No ironing and no wrinkles (that are bothersome at least). Seem to wear like a light pair of jeans.

Intriguing…. does the fly have sewn-on or shank buttons?

Polo actually has been putting out some pretty good stuff lately; the pricing is going up but it always qualifies for the sales unlike RRL.

Top button is metal ala jeans. Others are sewn on.
