    The Official RRL Thread

    Just spoke to a sales rep at the local Polo Factory Outlet Store that has historically carried RRL (albeit on-and-off) and was told that RRL will now be held for retail and will no longer make its way to outlets. Has anyone heard/seen anything similar? Managed to get some deals a couple of...

    I think that Ring Jacket did some tailoring for United Arrows, so it might be worthwhile to check the contents label to see if it's a Ring Jacket jacket.

    Bombed an interview with CELINE, so I went thrifting for some therapy. A nice consolation pop 🥲

    I found a couple myself for $20 each. One has yet to sell, but one of them sold for $250 only a couple of days after I listed it (which was surprising since I've had some Canali sit for a while). Might be worth grabbing if the fabrics are nice and they don't look too orphaned. For reference...

    Pop on the right "Jil." I can't tell you guys how many times I've been ecstatic to see a j.jill or J. Lindeberg item only to snap back to reality and realize that it's the wrong brand. Waraire Boswell Bespoke sport coat + others. Waraire's tailoring seems to be pretty popular among NBA players...

    Finally organized and listed most of the ties I'd found in LA. Lots of the Charvet have pulls and damage, which isn't terribly surprising given how delicate their woven silk tends to be. Funnily enough, my favorite ties ended up being this beautiful chevron tie by Zegna and a couple from Amir...

    I did end up taking them all, regardless of condition. As many are likely familiar with, some of the woven silk Charvet Ties were starting to come apart at the ends, but I think there's still some "meat-on-the-bone," so to speak. I'm trying to figure out which ones I want to keep; I haven't worn...

    Some repairs made to some interesting thrift pick-ups. Going to post a small haul after I hit up some spots tomorrow.

    Hopefully a pop for me. Looks similar to comps I've found online, but if anybody notices something off, please let me know. Also... Does anyone know if it's possible to get something like this out of a silk tie, or is it a lost cause? My last attempts to fix up a silk tie went horribly...

    ??? What I don't get is how you're so nonchalant about potentially scamming someone on eBay.

    Just to be clear, the "you" in this comment will be referring to @WoolyLamb, but I wanted to build off of double00's comment. To add on to this -and I can only speak for myself here- I think that the damage to your (WoolyLamb's, presuming he reads this) reputation as an online seller would be...

    I'm pretty sure it's the logo/label that's off. Not sure how you would list it on eBay; I think selling counterfeits is supposed to be against their terms of use.

    Thrifts have been pretty dry, but here is some stuff from the last two trips out. First, the boring stuff. Two made in China Barney's partially-lined sport coats. I normally wouldn't pick these up, but it's rare for me to find stuff in my size (36R) and the Zegna Cross-Ply fabric feels like...

    Not to discount your experience (heaven knows I wish I could flip beat suits for profit), but I've had no luck flipping anything that's damaged beyond a small fabric pull or a pinhole. I can't imagine getting more than $40 for those Kitons based on my experience, and that would basically be...

    Depending on your comfort level (and your affinity for Brioni suits) there are ways to get those stains out (and sanitize the suit overall, if you're looking to wear or flip). I've found a couple of suits that I've managed to de-yellow with a few simple home remedies, including higher end ones...

    Went back to the store with all the Brioni shirts and witnessed a massacre.
