As you may or may not know, Eastland's doing an anniversary collection that's named after its source: Made in Maine. What interests me is the general lack of enthusiasm I'm seeing out there by people who normally love Quoddy, Yuketen and nearly all things Made in the US of A.
Now, the collection isn't the most original, but it definitely looks and feels good (at capsule). It's pretty similar to the stuff that's out there, is made here in the US (presumably well), and is priced around $250-$350 (not cheap, but not Yuketen-expensive). At Save Khaki, we presumed they'd be a pretty big seller (when they arrive this week), much like the chukkas we carried. Time will tell, but I'm curious why no one's excited by it. Saturation? Unoriginal? Hate Eastland? Poor marketing? Please share.
