Anybody own any of the cashmere pieces? Thoughts? Worth the price?

Wear them anytime the weather permits going sockless. I do live on the coast though so people wear boat shoes, not sure if I would sport them in Idaho.

Just saw this appear, is this the one the liquor store was selling?

Hell no lol.

The cashmere is nice, but wait until you can get it on sale or some type of discount. Also if you are around a factory store check them out. I went in today and they had a ton of wool sweaters. Crew neck, half zip, shawl collar they had it all. They had a 40% sign on them, but the promos were in the processed of being updated. Also i have noticed several of the online/catalog pieces in factory stores; am I the only one?

No, not worth it unless they get down to about 60-70 bucks.

I'm seeing some new tartans in the Nov catalog. Tartan madness!

I've got 5 or 6 shirts from j crew this fall, time for a break.

Yeh, I gotta be careful or my closet will be nothing but plaid pretty soon.

Could see grabbing another pair of these: Cargo/fatigue pants. Got them in olive drab earlier this fall and they've become a solid favorite.

gonna try the \tflannel lined chino, worth 80 bucks? any thoughts?

 

[bye4now122]

I'm very impressed with a lot of the new arrivals. I'm glad they finally brought out the flannel lined pants, now I just have to decide between graphite chinos or the dark wash jeans.

Also a lot of the sweaters are looking good.

I've heard great things about them in the past, I'm probably picking some up once I can go in store and try them on.

The Liquor store had 4 versions of the Levis. Once I saw the price tags I stopped checking out the details.

I think these may have been one of them. I think they were priced higher in-store, as well.

On the off chance would anyone happen to have a pair of Desert (MacAllister) boots size 8 to trade for 8.5?

I plan on wearing these a lot this winter so I want to make sure I get the right size and 8.5 is slightly too big for me.

Mine are for sale/trade if you are interested
