The unofficial Drake's London Appreciation Thread

[zenosparadox]

So far, only my cashmere hat has shipped. Really hoping they don't cancel the other two items, since then, I'd be paying $21 shipping for the one item :/

Had my navy herringbone blazer canceled from my order, so if you haven’t received the same notification, your chances may be better.

i ordered the navy bedford cord a-1 jacket in 38R. If the sizing doesn't work, I'll put it up here at cost.

Shipping confirmed about 12 hours after ordering.

Out of curiosity, are you worried about it being too large or small?

I ordered the same size and am concerned it might be a little big on me (for reference, I'm approx 150lbs/176cm)

My mysterious blue herringbone blazer has now shipped.
Just waiting on the green workshirt. If the workshirt is canceled this will be the 2nd straight archive sale I’ve purchased and been canceled on the same size 16 so fingers crossed.

I’m roughly the same height, but a bit heavier. Worried it might be too small. Will find out soon enough though!

I‘ve ordered at around 3 AM UK time and also didn‘t receive shipping information yet (I‘m in Europe).

Same here, no shipping so far. I ordered early Thursday morning. I emailed them to combine two orders and they said they were busy and thus couldn't do it.

I can't believe the herringbone blazer was $75 in the US. It was around $440 on the EU site, although with finished buttons... Still ordered it. I hope it is warm enough for the winter wear.

I feel like it was definitely a missprice on the US site, but they're still shipping them out.

FYI: Price drops on a few items this morning

The grey casentino and navy overcoats are £695 down from £895

The aran knit and argyle jumpers are £95 down from £145 IIRC

Also the yellow shawl collar cardigan is £195 down from £295. Shame its not available in my size. These run a little small, don't they? The model wears a 40 but has a 38in chest.

Some items have dropped in price. Send them an email with your order # and ask them to refund the difference. I phoned them this morning about this and they told me to do that.

is it me but those overcoats esp the raglan ones werent on the main site before this? its the first time seeing those

 

[bootyboy]

If anybody here ordered the brown tweed raglan overcoat in 38 and doest work out, i would be interested. Thank you

I didn't see the raglans in those cloths on the main site either. They could be samples, or originally made for a specific stockist?

 

[rasmusp]

My guess would be that they are samples of the raglan sleeve overcoats. They feature the same ticket pocket, I think.

I am considering whether to get an argyl jumper. It looks nice, but the short length of Drake's jumpers has been an issue in the past. Would you size up for the argyl jumper? I use 40 or 42 depending on the design for other Drake's knitwear.

Weird situation.

I ordered the cashmere intarsia golf jumper on the first night. It shipped yesterday, but it appears to have shipped from New York (I am in the UK though). I'm now being asked to pay import fees and VAT.

Has anyone else had this issue? Of ordering from the UK (and paying UK fees and VAT) yet the item ships from the US?

I am in the us of a and have a dhl shipping number originating in Docklands, U.K. with no taxes, levies yadayada at all, just shipping..........so far
