    Thanks! Yes, makes sense. It’s a really nice jacket… :) Just ordered the Games navy double breasted with brass buttons though.. Both the pinstripe and the regular navy, intending to return at least one. If I end up returning them both, I may just order this corduroy one instead.

    Is this the games? https://www.drakes.com/products/corn-cotton-corduroy-games-blazer-mk-i Or the regular field jacket? https://www.drakes.com/products/tan-corduroy-three-pocket-field-jacket?variant=48455780696277

    Quick question: has anyone here put their Doek (as sold by Drake’s) canvas trainers in the washing machine? Any tips on cleaning them? Thanks!

    Thanks. I did not even try it on, as I didn’t want the hassle trying to fit it back in the package neatly. Oh well, waiting for the balmacaans to come out now. :)

    Took delivery of the reversible raglan today. Yes, it’s a beautiful coat - the same beautiful beige cotton material as my coat from two years ago. But I have decided to return it, as I like my current reversible (double breasted) coat better (even though it is one size too small). The colour...

    Me buying a 1600 euro Profitec espresso machine: reads online reviews for 3 months, visits a few shops, ‘it’s so much money, let’s think about it again’, waits another few months because a new model might be coming out. Still using my 15 year old machine… Me buying a 1900 euro reversible raglan...

    There are many great pieces, like this tweed jacket, but I already have a few of those. The piece I will probably buy is the double sided rain coat. It’s similar to the one I have from 2-3 seasons ago, but I bought mine too small… Now I will get a larger one. And then this winter coat is also...

    Sharp observation! Looks better indeed. It also strikes me that the blazers have become longer. I must admit that I’m really liking the new lookbook. I actually see some must have pieces, so gonna be saving up for them!

    Congrats. It’s a gorgeous piece, should have gotten it myself! It is lighter yes, but should be perfect for Madrid weather. Not on the coldest days though!

    The Drake’s is definitely warmer.

    Don’t get me wrong, the Barbour is a classic for a reason, but it feels more ‘normal’ vs the Drake’s. I’d wear the Barbour if I would go out to bars and clubs, less worries about damaging it.. :)

    My Drake’s coverall is a size 42, more or less in line with the sizes I’d pick for chores and blazers (42-44). Shirts 16.5-17.5. If you wear the coverall true to size, you’ll wear it as it’s probably meant by Drake’s, i.e. a little oversized and boxy. One just has to understand and accept it...

    Flannel can indeed be warm in March. I have a navy pinstripe flannel suit, and it can be uncomfortably warm indoors. Also not sure about a dark brown flannel suit - maybe too much of a 70s vibe? Would rather choose navy or grey when picking flannel. Also think about opportunities to wear the...

    Anybody here with first hand experience of this season’s chambray or denim shirts? A lot of them have already sold out, but not the blue chambray work shirt. Is it any good? https://www.drakes.com/products/blue-cotton-chambray-two-pocket-work-shirt Also, haven’t seen the St John pinstripe...

    If you like a more fitted oxford, I can recommend Finamore and then their Tokyo fit. I buy mine from fransboonestore. These days, so high summer, it’s what I will wear 4-5 times a week over shorts. Extremely rugged too, wash mine weekly now at 60 degrees Celsius. I only wear Finamore oxfords, no...

    Difficult to tell from that one pic. Looks like going smaller won’t be adviseable, eg look at the sleeve length. I’d try it on with a sport coat underneat and then close the jacket. Wouldn’t be surprised if you need one size larger.
