I don’t remember seeing these jackets, and I am a Jort afficionado! Makes me wonder if — are you ready? — these are straight to outlet sales that were meant for the original store before the virus situation reshuffled their plans? They were gonna ask $700 for these and these are just under $500 now.

The moral of the story I am learning is if you want something from the regular store now — I would wait till July. I have a feeling they will still go ahead with the normal July outlet, and this sale shows that they are willing to dump fairly recent and even current stock into the outlet.

I bought a jacket 2,5 months ago at a regular price that is now 50%... Such is life
I wonder if they do go ahead and run one in July, whether they'll continue to offer to other countries like they are now. I've always missed out being in Sweden and now having them offer it in Sweden, it's fantastic! My fingers are crossed for both a July outlet, and shipping to Sweden

I think this an exception. If the economy turns around correctly the next outlet wont be until Jan. Europe is already planning to open back up and I DOUBT Trump will let the US stay down for long.

So this is late to the party, but a few months ago I wrote a guide on SuSu fits that turned out to be very popular.

for those new or those that want an insight from someone that worked there (hope it is ok to share my work):

true, true — however, places around me already are cancelling 4th of July events... Also, I do see a fairly quick recovery but not till fall/winter. Additionally, everyone will take a “see what happens in the fall (with the virus) approach”

That may be the case for some items, but not all. Many of the pieces I bought from the outlet (before the outlet was announced via email) were down to 1 left in my size.

Same here, many of them said only 1 left. We are lucky we could get in so fast.

Did you guys notice that they phased out La Spalla and now it’s called Lazio? They have left the La Spalla name in the descriptions though...

They simply renamed the fit like they always do.

Havana pleated DB = Madison

Havana Jetted = Soho

Havana patch = Hudson

they just simplify as the fits as much as possible so it’s easier for the customers to buy quickly without thinking so much.
