    Fit issue

    Hi all, I think I know the answer already but I figured I would defer to the experts. I’ve been buying size 42 sport coats. 44 seems too big. I’ve been using the same tailor for adjustments. He’s been in business for a long time and makes bespoke suits, jackets, shirts, etc. I took a brand...

    Is the jacket RRL? I really like it.

    Suit fit check

    Hi all, I wore a BB 1818 Fitzgerald fit navy suit that I haven’t worn in many years. Last month I brought it to a tailor to get adjusted. The jacket was supposed to have been let out and I think it either wasn’t or not let out enough. I haven’t gained weight since then, if anything I’ve lost...

    Is this a sport coat or orphaned suit jacket?

    Hi all, I am trying to build a closet of sport coats. I only have one so far. I’m looking for a navy blazer and found this herringbone pattern jacket that I like. Is this used piece a sport coat or orphaned suit jacket? Also, can I use this kind of material in the summer? Or only fall/winter?

    The Official RRL Thread

    Hi all, Thanks for the feedback on my first jean fit post. I ordered 34x32 and 36x34 (they were out of 32) straight fit RRL jeans from Ralph Lauren (I should have done this initially). I ended up returning the 36 waist pants. The legs were too wide. Even the leg opening on the 34 is a little...

    I hear ya. I'm going off sold listing on eBay. The reality is people are asking (not sure if they are getting) almost $100 for used RRL undergarments. Not something I would spend close to $100 on.

    The Official RRL Thread

    Sometimes you get lucky…I didn’t. Well, I guess it’s how you look at it. I scour eBay and PoshMark for items. Anything RRL is marked pretty high. I decided to try some different search terms and I found a pair of RRL officer chinos that were misidentified. The good thing is I bought them for...

    Is the Chambray shirt you’re wearing with the shorts RRL or another brand? I’m trying to find one at a decent price. Doesn’t have to be RRL.

    The Official RRL Thread

    Well, I did what I should have done at the beginning and ordered a pair of straight fit once washed in size 36 directly from RL. That is what happens when I try to be pennywise and pound foolish. I'll see how those fit. I think they may be a better fit for my body type. At least I can...

    I love the Speedmaster. It is the only watch I ever really wanted. Don't get me wrong, there are some really nice watches out there, but if I only had one watch, the Speedmaster is it! It looks good on that strap.

    Yes, Good call on line drying. Do you put jeans like this in a laundry bag when washing?

    The Official RRL Thread

    That makes sense about low straight. I find that I actually look better in pants that have a natural waist like Brooks Brothers Madison fit trousers. However, I think a low waist (where these currently sit) might make more sense for jeans like these, especially as I continue to work on trimming...

    Thanks for chiming in! Good to know. Did you find that yours shrink? I wonder if one wash might make these too tight. Granted I won’t give them their first wash for awhile.
