The unofficial Drake's London Appreciation Thread

[The Ernesto]

You are right , I know. Just anonymously sharing my feelings here as my therapist doesn’t know much about menswear and wouldn’t get it

Note to self: Establish menswear 'counselling' service. Mark up fees by 40% on regular counselling services. Set up stall at Pitti.

Also, where did Jason Jules go? Haven't seen him in any of the editorial content this summer.

Sample sale redux I see.. Unfortunately I’m not in London. Or is it only NYC?

Any idea when the next online sale will commence? Have my eye on a few shirts.

Just left the NYC sale again! Copped a few more things, took a gamble on the jeans so fingers crossed. Prices lower than last weekend!

Did they restock anything other than more shirts? Also did you see the casentino vests still hanging around?

Hm, can’t say for certain unfortunately. I think there were ties I didn’t see last time?

Also the jeans def don’t work for me so will be listing them for sale shortly! Scored a good jacket and a few shirts though.

What size waist? Size 32 U.K. I’ll buy ‘em! Where will you list them?

Anyone know if there’s still a decent tie/scarf selection in NYC? Considering taking the trip…

There is a thread search function, just FYI....

Sample sales in London and NYC!

There were still lots of ties this morning! Nothing that really grabbed me, as I don’t wear ties super often and have a decent collection. But various prints, repp stripes, block stripe knits (though didn’t see solid knits, which I was looking for).

There’s also a reading function FYI, it’s essentially where you open your eyes and see that the latter of the two posters is dated to last week.

I ended up stopping by and I'm glad I did. Thanks for the heads up @yungchomsky! The tie selection is still great but the scarf selection is mostly what is left over from last week. There's a whole new shelf of denim/chinos that wasn't there last week unless the same items were on the rack and I just missed them. Some new knitwear as well.

Just for anyone looking to go, I just got back!

The tie and pocket square selection is solid. Some more funky prints, but also some more muted thrown in. There are a number of navy/gray wool scarves and caps.

The jackets and suits are mostly picked over, unless youre an odd size or unless theyve added more. There are a ton of solid shirts.

I picked up a blazer, nice pair of Style 3 jeans, and a few ties. I was thinking about a couple of silk scarves, but they might have been too out there for me personally.

Does anyone know if the jeans stretch much? They’re a bit tight on me, but I can move and sit in them….

Let me know if anyone has questions about what is there!
