I was in the Upper East side in July, but they said they were moving. Have they moved yet?

Also - I haven't been to the Tribeca location since before Covid. Any significant differences between Tribeca and UES?

I was in both locations last weekend. Tribeca is still very cool. UES is spectacular! I hope they’ll be firing up a grill come spring, some wine and/or whiskey tastings, cigars, maybe even a wood fired oven! Beautiful space!

Any difference in offerings, or pretty much the same at both?

I’m sure they do have the same offerings, but… Tribeca seemed to have more, outerwear, sport jackets and knitwear. UES seemed to have more tuxedos and accessories. It’s difficult to say given the fact I don’t know how their storeroom is set up. Of course, the good thing is you can visit both.

if you have specific things you're looking for you can email ahead to ask if it's in the location you want to visit

Horrid lighting, but outrageously plush jacket. As someone who loathes being touched, I’m hesitant to wear it outside, it’s that nice.

I actually did that and they were more than accommodating. Their customer service is excellent. Alex and his team certainly know how to take care of their customers.

I went to the old Armoury location on Madison and then recently went to the new shop on 69th between Madison and 5th. It looks great. They always offer coffee or water and don't rush you to buy anything. I saw a beautiful suede jacket that was thankfully too short for my usual taste or else I would have been out $1600!

Looking at some of the old posts and really like the look of Army Chinos. Any idea when there will be a restock?

Those were made by Hertling, probably unlikely.

I thought they also had some made by Ring Jacket at one time also.

Checked out both locations on my trip. Tribeca remains charming but the new UES is awesome and a bit easier to get to.

Grabbed a cute kids book and socks at UES and a Codis Maya rhodium tie slide at Tribeca. Both staffs told me they've heard that the Codis Maya team is perhaps not coming back from sabbatical after all. Gotta grab us this treasure while it remains.

Ring tux. Huge fan of the cut. Shoulder is still plenty soft, but a bit more imposing than the Model 3, I feel.

Had been eyeing this sucker for spell. Curious to see how it wears, but it is just gorgeous looking.

Tux looks great!

Suit is mid weight? Heavier? Lighter? Like the color and pattern.

Opposite end of the seasonal spectrum, but your Formosa suit pushed me to try this.
S/S weight for sure. Probably 9/10oz range
