I can identify the exact location of that NMWA shirt photo based on the reflection of the highway sign.

Man, just got the NMWA tobacco linen suit and it is nice. Will post some pics Sunday with comparison to the Armoury’s Ring Jacket as @lordsuperb recommended. Hiking in the Shenandoah NP tomorrow.

Okay, I keep saying this but no more purchases for a while. I’m sending LuxeSwap another big box soon to help clean my closet. I’m not the only one spending bucks while bored, right?

Don’t tell my ex-wife. She thinks I died in the Congo ten years ago...

Would there be any interest in a DC area swap meet (for lack of a better term)?

I have some stuff to get rid of too, but would prefer avoiding the hassle of taking pictures, shipping, paying commissions, dealing with returns, etc.

Not sure that would be a thing for us. Try LuxeSwap, Tailored Consignment, or Ownly Luxury. Just send your stuff in and they do all the work. They each have different lists of acceptable items.

Tailored Consignment will send you a shipping label and deduct postage from sales. No money up front.

My only clothing purchase since lockdown was a GRP linen henley from NMWA (purchased with LuxeSwap credit). My discretionary spending has gone toward booze and home items (plants, assorted kitchen items, Soda Stream machine).

Looking forward to whose pics

We bought some new chairs for the backyard. And a large cantilevered umbrella as we are spending (or were spending, prior to the current heat wave) more time at home and outside.

I started clothing purchases with more casual items; a DBF chore coat (painters jacket) from NMWA, and a Sashiko Doyle from Epaulet, but ended up caving on tailoring with NMWA Covid sale and The Armoury’s Ring Jacket promotion....
