@Michigan Planner I believe that it was our second makeup. Reverse Tobacco Chamois, Plantation Crepe Sole, tonal moc stitch...
I have a pair, still wear them regularly (especially in the Fall). Great boots. End of an era for the Brooklyn store. I'll definitely swing by. Sounds like a great move Mike, congratulations!

Got the Khaki field jacket yesterday in the mail. Windy day in LA so got to test if it's wind proof and definitely did the job there. But warmed right up and still didn't get too warm in the jacket. So definitely worth a purchase if anyone's on the edge out here.

@ Mike
Will the field jacket shirk at all still or did the enzyme wash pretty much take that out?

SoCal wind today was definitely a good test. Wore my EP navy hopsack suit for a meeting in the valley and it was cold!

Do people think that there will be a line forming up early tomorrow? I'm debating driving in from Central CT (2 hrs).

Hoping someone is taking photos of the event. Anyone doing proxy?

I'm interested in one of the Heirloom shawl collared cardigans. Are there any photos of them with the collar rolled a little bit more with a few of the top buttons undone, I'm after something similar to this.

Doing so is a huge logistical undertaking, or at least, it needs to be in order for one's cut to be worth the effort. I made it work in Santa Monica by getting everyone to send me their requests early and getting into the store ahead of time to assess what was there. Even then, I was probably able to satisfy 20% of the requests.

Anyone who goes there today is likely to get a great deal on something they weren't expecting to find. Anyone who goes looking to get a great deal on a specific item they've been lusting over is likely to be disappointed. Proxying, day of, in an environment like that would be pretty difficult, so I'm not surprised that no one has jumped at the opportunity.

not as crazy as the viberg sample sale, but still crowded in there.

seems like most of the clothing had been picked over. got some trainers I've been eyeing for 100 bucks a pop. aldens were 300.
