I saw this season's version in store last month. Very similar if not identical pattern. The one I've got is quilted with nylon lining versus unlined for the new one. Good weight for a damp 49F morning. Probably not the thing for a while in Houston.

How's the feel of that charcoal wool twill one you got? I a blue plaid unlined one from a couple seasons ago that's fairly itchy.

it's fairly itchy also, but by some twist of strange preference, that's a plus to me! It'll be perfect for fall/winter weather in Tennessee, so I will probably pack it up and then leave it at my place there. I love the pattern on yours, and when I tried on the RRL, it was a very close second, but only because the M was ever so slightly large on me, combined with not having hand warmers and sort of weird pocket placement, I decided against it.

In other news, they had these Plainview boots in store also, and damned if I didn't change my mind on them. They actually look much nicer in person than in photo if that makes sense, and if I hadn't just dropped a bit more on a pair of Heritage boots earlier in the month, I probably would have picked these up. If they go on sale, I'd probably be in:

Just received (and sent back) the cashmere olive shawl cardigan. Everything is wrong with it : too short, too thin and i had to check twice if it was really a 100% cashmere : it has absolutely no luxurious feeling at all. Plus the collar is different from the older version (it's more "round"). For 750 euros, i pass.
to resume : it's more expensive than the previous olive shawl collar (was 500), and far less interesting. I hope it's not a global RRL tendency.

Ha! Funny enough this my listing. Truly wish they fit me as they are so awesome and as many on the forum know, something we all wish RRL still made.
Indeed, that why I posted the link to them. Been looking for a pair for a while myself, but alas they are indeed rarely on offer, let alone in my size. Thought they should be brought under the attention of the RRL enthusiasts here, such that they would hopefully go to someone that would really appreciate them.
Good luck with the sale.

Well...I found one online and ordered it...along with the much talked about Leather-Yoke Quilted Oilcloth/"Breckenridge" Jacket and a couple of waffle/thermals. Will see how they work out.

I am assuming the hat is from 2023 season (fall/winter or spring/summer)?

Thanks for your input. I appreciate it

... and now thanks to you they just sold to a forum member. Glad they are going to a good home and to a fellow RRL enthusiast. Thanks for posting here. I should probably put some of my other ebay items up for sale here too!

Yeah, hat is F/W 23. There’s a pic in the current lookbook of a guy wearing the hat with that jacket.
