The unofficial Drake's London Appreciation Thread

[BLAUGRANA]

Wow, looks like I missed out. Not a lot I'd have gone for. Largely outerwear I don't need. However if prices go down again...

Who knew that 235 is 50% off 385? (Not sure they got a single percentage right.)

Also, the prices looked much nicer before they switched me from pounds to dollars.

In all seriousness, I liked Drake's a lot more before seeing some of these prices. I think I will have troubles paying for their stuff again. I guess there is some risk to having sales like this.

Yeah, I noticed quite a few items where the price after discount didn't equate to the % off.

I like the brand the same, but I can see holding out for another sale like this. That said I'm not sure if this is more a Covid sale or more to do with the closing of their factory store. Possibly both?

Crosby chukkas same as Alden Barrie or true to size? (Assuming you go down a half size for the Barrie last...)

I size down 1 size

I also size down one. I also need to get them shortened even though I'm tall and like cuffing my jeans.

Someone did nicely on the City Raincoat. Just a shame it wasn’t me....?

Hi there, I'd like to purchase a striped ocbd from the sales but I'm lost with the size guide... Ptp seems really large. Can anyone tell me what size should I take ? I guess I'm between 15 and 15,5 usually 38 in french size. Thanks in advance !

Anyone know if the Drakes and VBC suits come with buttons for braces? I'd take the plunge if yes, otherwise, I'll live without this olive suit.

It would appear they offer returns if anyone is on the fence about a purchase and doesn’t have shipping/customs to worry about.

One unfortunate, but understandable thing is that they haven't put the whole ties and accessories stock from the factory store online. There would have been hundreds of them, but very worth browsing.

 

[aristoi bcn]

Grabbed this one.

 

[polyfusion]

I barely ever get to wear ties but loved this from the look book and really happy to grab one .

 

[matty long legs]

Didn't get anything. I was hoping for a tubular or thin wool scarf since I love the one Drake's tubular scarf I have, but there wasn't much in the scarf selection. Prices seemed very fair though.

I had the option to get it last evening but the color just held me back. Still looking for something in Navy or Tan may be?

I picked up this scarf. I don't actually recall seeing it in any recent collections though, and a google search has revealed nothing but the product page in the archive. Possibly a sample or unreleased?

I was close to picking up the black w/ polka dot scarf but ended up getting nothing at all. tbf some classic grenadine ties with large or small dots were also priced really well. Just don't wear ties much... oh well

In other news, I did grab a pair of the Crosby boots from the Crosby St. store last week. Almost had a stroke when seeing the light colored pair on the archive site on deep discounts. At least it wasn't the color that I got at full price
