Their “Plaid Ferret Scottish” was a pretty good ale.

Those are large beers.

My final reup in the USAF. Texas cops are a strange bunch. If they dont remind people whos in charge every 10 minutes or so they get all antsy in the pantsy.

Saw this windshield note posted on social recently and thought AF needs to see this.

I’ve ordered 20+ shirts from proper cloth and 5 or so flannel Canclini. It’s an easy process and arrives in 2-3 weeks usually

I've ordered a half-dozen shirts from them, and will no doubt order more. I've been very happy with the quality of the shirts, and their customer service is great. They had to re-do the first shirt a couple of times to dial in the size, but from then on, I just choose that profile (or whatever they call it) to order again, and the shirts fit perfectly. The fabric selection is great, the workmanship is top-notch, and as @EZB says above, they usually arrive in under 3 weeks.

Good to hear. Sounds like I won't have any troubles.

Surrey Chonksters today (it's raining cats and dogs here and I just wrangled Harry back in from his potty break in the mud pit that used to be our back yard):

how much do they typically cost? I can deal with the long wait from S&M for $40 a shirt.

Love it - what a great new tagline.

”Higgins Mill. The NEW gym shoe.”

It’s a versatile boot!

You won’t have trouble. I had two problems overall. The first was a Reda merino wool shirt that tore at a button hole. They allowed me to buy another free (chose another color because it was discontinued)—a $175 credit basically—and then I had a tailor sew the hole in a way that didn’t look terrible—for $3. Another time, a shirt was shrunk way past the normal allowance on two washes. I never wore it. They took it back and refunded without any pressure from me.

You might remember that Rancourt is having a pre-sale on a couple of boots in various CXL and suede options. The camel suede Byron has my attention.

I just received a pair of Rancourt Byron boots today, in case you’re interested in seeing them “in the wild.”

I contacted Rancourt about making these in that spruce kudu that I had recently seen on another boot (non-Rancourt). They purchase kudu and checked into it for me. It turned out that due to minimum order quantities and shipping costs, they weren’t going to be able to order it for one pair. They didn’t give up so quickly though. They checked their inventory of leather samples and found a piece of spruce kudu that was large enough to make me a pair. Three weeks later and these are at my door.

These came with two sets of laces, two boot bags, a shoe horn, and a set of coasters (which I assume were cut from the little bit left from their sample).
How awesome is that?
