Excellent new look-book for F/W 2019 shot here in DC. Georgetown University, Ben's Chili Bowl and the National Mall! Just ordered this gold merino cardigan. (hoping it cools down soon as it will be 90 all next week! :brick: )

And what are your thoughts between what Armoury offers compared to Drake's. As far as I am aware, the [sleeveless] cardigans from both retailers are about the same. @smittycl

Don't get @smittycl started on Drake's haha.
Lots of overlap as the Armoury has Drake's items on their website and are obviously owned by the same folks. Many of my other cardigans are Drake's so I'll assume this one is just as nice. Love the color and have been looking for one like this for a while.

I guess to generalize I really like "the look" The Armoury offers. It was neat to finally visit their store in NYC earlier this month. Drake's current line-up is a bit too Wes-Anderson-meets-Adjunct-English-Professor for me. The Armoury's new look book does have a relaxed, academic vibe to me but not as cartoonish as Drake's recent offerings. I'll stick to Drake's accessories, though. Always good stuff!

Thanks for the kind words! Hope you enjoy the new knit!

Yes you are correct they are similar in that they are made at the same factory in Scotland, however ours are our own patterns, with the biggest change being the shorter length to accommodate for higher rise trousers.

Will you ever carry Fukuda shoes in UK11 and bigger? For some reason all the RTW models (total of 3) stop at 10.5 UK.

Terrible building for classes, although I had some great classes there despite the building.

I don't think I had a class there... but a lot of good memories: the Exorcist at Halloween, sneaking onto a balcony toward the end of a first date, trying to sneak up the clock tower, formal dinners in Riggs library, a mass by Ray Kemp in Gaston Hall. My sister was a bartender, back when there was a bar in the basement.

52 was just a hair tight so I requested a return and ordered a 54. I see that 52 is already sold out but there is one coming back! (as soon as the Armoury sends me a shipping label). Cheers!

Hey guys,

As some of you noticed we've got a new line of tailoring in the shop (and online), we're calling it the Hundred Series. We wrote a piece on it, check it out!
