Brooks Brothers Xmas Promotion

[why4009]

Anyone know where I can find specific measurements for brooks brother 1818 suits? The website doesn't show shoulders sleeves etc. Thanks.

They took down the argyle socks before the sale posted. What a lousy move!

what was so great about the argyle socks?

 

[Ataturk]

Nothing special about them, I guess, just that they're... argyle, wool blend, over the calf, come in lots of patterns and would have been a little over $10/pair on sale.

BB has nice argyle socks, but the regular price is more than I'm willing to pay. IIRC, the cashmere blended argyles are around $45.

No, I haven't. I just checked and my order has been pushed back to January 30th. I don't understand how sale items can take over a month to ship.

I may end of up canceling my order if it's pushed back again.

I ordered cashmere sweaters,I have a feeling that they will arrive when the winter is over,if that. When I placed my order,it said it would ship out on Jan. 7,it was pushed back 3 times after that.Very frustrating. By the way,did anyone get those extra slim shirts? I returned mine as they were little uncomfortable, they made the shirts slim but I felt like I had to size up as it was little too slim in the chest area.

Yep, mine too. I did get one of the 6 extra slim fit shirts I ordered..

On the bright side, these are the best fitting of any of the BB shirts I have tried, which are the GF, BF, and slim fit. Now if only they'd make these with a Black Fleece finish/quality.

So the extra slim fit shirts work for you? I felt like they were too tight,almost to the point that made me feel uncomfortable so they went back.

Yeah, I've got to say, they fit great. I was worried when that other guy wrote about the sensation of being choked..

Not an element I look for in a shirt. However, they are perfect for me, and I will probably end up slowly switching over to this fit over time.

My BF order was placed on 12/26 also for sweaters and originally scheduled for shipping on 1/16. I also fear the order will come at the end of the season which is why I may end up canceling if the ship date is delayed again. All other non-BF items I ordered were shipped and arrived before New Years Day.

I received my 3 slim fit shirts and 2 pair milano slim fit chinos a few days ago. Didn't order any BF but I'd still buy the chesterfield if it drops in price again.

They'll probably send those items to the outlets though

I doubt there is going to be a lot at outlets these year, based on these delays,I doubt that they even have those BF items in stock. Maybe they are waiting for them to be made?
On another note,I heard that RL is doing inventory consolidation,most of the PL stuff is being sent somewhere,I wonder where those items are going to end up.

The Chesterfield is nice. I have the navy cashmere and like it a lot. I'll likely have it taken in on the sides a little because it's a bit more full than I think it should be; otherwise, it fits well.
