Back from downtown

[Christofuh]

Bally Scribe @ 60% OFF
Zegna @ 60% OFF
Saks had some sweet SF shearlings @ 40% OFF
NM @ 65% OFF (better brands were 40% OFF)
HB had nice Spanish lamb shearlings @ 40% OFF
Barneys had C&J Gerrards for under $300 (would've gone for them but for those funky suede inserts) and few Harris models.
Kids @ POLO tried to ram suede McKays down my throat for under $400 (down from $1250), but I fought back

LP is going to have 40% OFF sale later this week.
BB was the usual yawn.
Borrelli didn't seem to have a sale.
Overall, the retail scene appeared deader than dead.
Don't recall seeing anything like that. In fact, even the vehicular traffic on Boylston/Newbury was pretty scarce

what size suede mackays are available?

 

[AJL]

I was told by Hal the mackays were gone. Did they bring more in? Sizes?

What's 60% off at Zegna? Last week it was a small section of clothing for 70% off and 60% off most non-couture footwear.

Interested in the LP jackets. Details of the upcoming LP sale? Were LP on sale 40% off at NM?

Boylston/Newbury? Is this Boston? I wasn't aware New York had those streets.

That would be Boston.

Shoos were 60% OFF @ Zegna (including XXX line). I went in looking to grab a deerskin jacket from their Elements series. Found out they didn't know what I was talking about

BTW, those XXX super duper pooper scooper line of Zegna shoos that retail for $1200-plus (the ones with care kit, leather box and all that) were nice. Though not as well built as, say, $1500 Kitons. Their trees, however, were SUH-WEET

Anyhow, I figured the whole winter stock was on sale.
LP @ NM was 40% OFF. Not whole lottta product to choose from though. Near $400 cotton pants less hundred some bucks

According to POLO people they had more than one pair of McKays in stock. Dunno anything beyond that.

 

[Irond Will]

Yeah, nothing seemed especially discounted at the Newbury BB. I picked up a wool quarter-zip for $60 or so. Either they're doing very well relative to other retailers or they have a lousy tactic for competing in a terrible sales environment.

Wow, sounds like Zegna Boston expanded their sale since I was last there. There was only one XXX Couture shoe on sale at the time- the reverse stitch whole cut in black. The limited editions were in the non-sale corner. Clothing on sale were only limited to two rackfuls. The cashmere elements weren't even on sale. But even then, the sale was a little better than the one at 5th ave store right now. Was the Icer jacket on sale at NM by any chance? It sounds like it likely wasn't.

I suspect that's still the case. Though I didn't ask.
