The Official-ish DC Thread

I'm not a football fan, but am interested in what the new Washington team name could be. Around the internets, I've seen people mention the Red Tails, which I think is pretty good. What other names do people like?

I like the Warriors or the RedHawks.

Just grabbed these golden tan pants from NMWA. Wish they were 100% linen but a blend is okay. Every time I think I have what I need they create a new niche for me.

This looks intriguing as well but not sure how much wear I would get out of it. Need to cool my jets and remember all the unworn suits languishing in my closet.

I've bought two suits since quarantine began and I have worn 0, so I feel you.

I bought a pair of gray odd dress trousers, something I wouldn't have worn even before quarantine because my brain no longer functions properly.

Once saw the fireworks by getting a spot right by the reflecting pool. Marked out the spot with some beach towels at about 10am. Gotta have a group so people can get food/drink restroom breaks. It was awesome as the fireworks looked like they were coming right at you. Best fireworks experience ever.

I didn't think Snyder would ever change the name, but looks like the advertisers are pulling out. Nike may even say that they won't ever print Nike skins jerseys. Not out of the realm of possibility that the networks/ESPN will air all games EXCEPT skins games.

Me too! A nice pair of Oxxford dress trousers in light gray. Used them to replace an older pair of Zanella's.

I think he will be forced to cave in.

Streetaries are continuing in Adams Morgan with one lane of traffic each way. Only people upset are those who park on 18th Street, but screw 'em.

I hear this. I'm tempted by the new NMWA gunclub check jacket myself. Even before the lockdowns and teleworking, each year I would tell myself no more tan/brown/beige spring-summer sport jackets. And then I'd add more tan/brown/beige spring-summer sport jackets!

That said, I don't have an exact pattern in my existing tan/brown/beige spring-summer sport jackets, I do still wear sport jackets occasionally during teleworking, and I got a good chunk o' LuxeSwap credit. And I still have a little more space in the closet...

#menswear math is hard! New stuff at NMWA is very tempting. Probably need to send more stuff out for consignment myself.

The lapels seem a bit oversized, no?

I like the Warriors or the RedHawks.

Washington Braves?

Nah, I don't think so.
