Thanks for this tip! Was just looking for such a belt and could only find Ralph Lauren or through Mr Porter, where I’ve just ordered a 250 euro Mulberry.. Probably cancel that order :)

I have this one from german manufacturer Ludwig Schröder. I think it's worth to point out that, in the more quality belts, the tip of the belt is the beginning of the weave. In belts of lesser quality there is a "patch" to keep the braides together.
There are a lot of braided belts out there, but the buckle and the complete weave is what I liked about this one.

Thanks! Nice to see there are still some local artisan leather manufacturers operating in Europe.

I really like how this Drake’s model wears his belt too long, so to speak. By the way, anyone got a clue whether this is a Drake’s jeans? Doesn’t seem like current season’s denim in my view.

I've just noticed on one of my Drake's neck ties a bit of damage. Might've already been there when I bought it at the factory shop, but any suggestions on preventing any further tie damage? I'm not rough with them at all.

Any difference in sizing between bleach and ecru (was mentioned somewhere)? Thanks!
well, supposedly not... but from my experience, yes. i’m a 32 in the bleach, and 31 in the ecru. when i asked them, they told me the latter would size up exactly, but it didn’t

Did anyone on here get the Games Coat from last year's FW collection? I'm curious how the fit is and wondering if they'll bring it back for next year...

Thanks for the info! I’m a 34 in the ecru so I’ll order both the 34 and 36 as I’ll probably be a 35 (not available).
