The unofficial Drake's London Appreciation Thread

[TtownMD]

I'm really enjoying the madras shirt!

Love this, I am really debating to pick up green cord sport coat or blue one likes yours. I own the pants both made by brisbane moss by Rota.

What's the regular version?

The other desert boot on their website with the plain toe. Also, the regular Astorflex model for half the price.

Looks like Drakes made a missstep with the design of those shoes.

Are the sizing differences enough that you would choose a different size in easyday v. regular line?

Nope. Easyday fits me better though. The regular line requires me to take in the trousers and jacket waists.

Sounds like you can't go wrong either way!

Cross-post from The Armoury:

Hi! Is there a difference between the lambswool (brown) shawl-collar cardigan from The Armoury and the Easyday cardigan featured by Drake's? Are they the exact same product?

 

[malefe]

Well dang, anyone know the fabric weight on their coats? Particularly the raglan sleeve one, or the tweeds?

They have a duffle coat up that seems to be new but 2.6k...

Does anyone know what fabric Drake's uses for their olive wool boucle jacket? I want something similar but preferable without the ticket pocket.

are cashmere scarves from drake's comparable to cashmere scarves from begg & co?

IMO, most of their outerwear this season have been big misses. And a $2,600 duffle coat that doesn't come with a hood?

I believe they use different makers, some by Begg, some JoE and also an English maker.

 

[Loathing]

Yeah, I don’t understand why they’ve never offered an Ulster coat either

I haven't tried Begg ones, but I think the recent crop of Indian made Drake's scarves is ridiculously overpriced and of very dubious quality. The hand feels like very short staple which means pilling is very likely, the stitching seems shoddy, and the gauge is wafer-thin which means it's fragile and a very low quantity of cashmere has actually been used.
