Ralph Lauren lines, and 'who makes what' - a definitive guide

[othertravel]

The one I picked up was a double breasted Polo IV with pleated trousers and very high rise. I’m guessing inspired by the 50’s?

looks like the final days before they revamp polo to the current fit (i.e. where they start to show more model with Custom fits), how I was it was a navy or grey windowpane..., black windowpane is no go for me, on the other hand it's on the subtle side...

They have Boston, Harvard, and they might have had a Cambridge model as well.

I noticed that you're in NY. Have you ever checked out the RL outlet at Woodbury commons? Sometimes the sales are really good.

Last time I was there they had RLPL dress shirts for $29.99 (real RLPL - not relabeled Black Label).

99% of the time Woodbury won’t have stuff in my size, so I usually couldn’t be bothered if unless someone out of town is visiting and want to see

Hi,

I am curious about PRL wool blazers made by Corneliani. What can I expect from "custom fit" ? Is it more slim fit or regular ?

 

[othertravel]

Pretty much means modern fit. In between regular and slim.

I just purchased a suit labeled "custom fit ". Armholes seem higher and slimmer. Bicep area is tighter for me. I work out a lot,so not the best choice for me.

That was exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks a lot. I will let know my impressions

Who would be the maker of those chukka boots? Ralph Lauren in big letters, made in Italy - but not dress boots. Would be glad to know what to expect qualitywise.

Most likely Silvano Sasetti.

What’s the original price there is made in Italy RLPL that’s Sasetti, the lower line is someone else I don’t know

OP is 450 USD - but I am not sure anybody would pay that for those shoes...

 

[clee1982]

450 is definitely not Sassetti then

I was having this conversation on another thread and thought this would be the better place to ask. Anyone know anything about the Italian-made RLPL Collis slipper? I picked up two pairs in suede over the past few weeks, and I assumed they were made by Sassetti, but I haven’t really been able to confirm whether or not they make slippers. Seem to be very well made in any case. Pics:

Retail is $650, if that helps
