The New Brooks Brothers

[Texasmade]

I don’t think fragrance and beauty products are part of the same organization. In most cases they’ve licensed their brands to one of the big luxury players who operates it.

It's still a **** ton of revenue rolling into Tom Ford Corporation or whatever it's called.

It appears the name “comrade” was not chosen by accident.

I have always been a closet Stalinist… a closet crammed with
I-gent clothes.

When JTLake, Jay Z, James Bond and Brad Pitt start wearing Brooks Brothers, then all the cologne and chop sticks in the world won’t rub the shine off the brand.

James Bond?

James Bond?

Yeah I don't think the very British James Bond would wear Brooks Brothers.
Brooks Brothers needs to dress Bruce Wayne or something.

Brooks Brothers needs to dress Bruce Wayne or something.

Or Jason Bourne, Jack Reacher, Jack Ryan, etc...

But what’s to stop Bond from wearing BB? Lately its been Tom Ford and Brioni (both made in Italy).

James Bond?

I believe TF outfitted Daniel Craig for a couple of the movies.

Yes, I think TF has done all of Daniel Craig's Bond suits. Original comment mentioned BB, though. Just curious about that.

Check out "Tenet" for the priceless scene where Michael Caine punks out JDW's Brooks Brothers suit. Quite funny.

At least he offers cool underwear. Can't say the same for Brooks Brothers.

it was somewhat tongue in cheek.

The point was the TF sells cologne, make up and other non- clothing related items as does BB, but TF can lay claim to being cool and get away with it.

TF was cool before James Bond though?

I mean do we remember the Ford Modeno or Astoin Martin in James Bond...

Everyone remembers the Aston Martin.

Also, what's up in avatar land? Find one yet?

I think I would need to put my cat’s picture on it...
