The unofficial Drake's London Appreciation Thread

[rob_ed]

I just got the shipping notice for my order! That was quick!

I'm jealous! Do you think you guys got onto the site right when it was launch, just before everybody else piled on? Still can't get on.

I got on as soon as I got the email so pretty soon after it went live.

Did you grab the navy or the dusty rose? I know I should grab the navy, as it’s a bit more wearable with my daily wardrobe, but I find the rose to be the more interesting choice. Wondering if anyone has experience with it in person.

Picked up the navy one, which is a lovely rich shade in person. The rose one was appealing too, but I also reached the conclusion that it was less wearable.

After a struggle to get through to the site, I picked up some oxfords, including a potentially questionable cream...

The overshirts are so nice but I probably have too many already. Also, the UK site didn't seem to be blessed with as many bargain jumpers as the US one -- either that or they all got snapped up before I woke up.

Anyone have any sizing guidance on the archer motif sweatshirts?

I am about 38l - 40. For more slim cut knitwear like Howlin jumpers I am a medium.

I was thinking of going 40 as it would account for a bit of shrinkage and if not a slightly oversized sweatshirt is not without its charms.

Grabbed some pocket squares that I am sure i will use someday, however was not charged tax, used Paypal, is that normal? The orphans and infrastructure depend on me.

Missed most of the things i wanted in the size I wanted. Disappointing but hey my bank account will be happier

 

[Nat25]

Everything shipped except the green work shirt and mysterious blue blazer that I both really wanted. So I basically just got all the stuff that I’m not sure if I overpaid for if it makes the stragglers feel any better.

I asked a similar question a couple of pages back if you want to take a look. Sounds like a 40 would be the way to go for you! Pretty sure only pink might be left at this point though...

Are there any items in the Archive that are older than 2 years?

I'm still holding out for a pair of St Crispins from the 2013 collaboration!!!

Most of the items appear fairy recent. Are any of the blazers made by Belvest?

 

[nycs10011]

Love this one too tried it on in the NYC shop. It has a great slightly cropped fit. Are we thinking there's going to be another sale with price drops like we saw last time? A few items I'm tempted on but thinking they may make it to a second round.
