The layout for the Japanese RRL site is so much smoother! Wish they'd use the same for the US site which just freezes my browser all the time. :laugh:
Can anyone comment on the quality of RRL's canvas bags / messengers? Worth the price vs Filson?


I have one of their canvas bags and duffel bags and love it, but i've always gotten them on sale, either at the 25% GIS or a steeper one (think i got over 60% off on the duffel a few years ago), but it was def worth the price i paid. quality and durable, and looks better with wear. sorry i cant comment on filson tho as i dont own any.


Definitely too thin for my taste given the look and price. It's more along the weight of a basic normal weight cardigan. not feather weight thin, but just normal (whatever that technically amounts to in weight). 


the fair isle crewneck is great though!

I have not received my invitation yet. As I have stated here multiple times, emails from RL have significantly dropped off since the spring private sale. For example, I didn't get one for GIS and have not been getting the usual (roughly) biweekly "we added this to our website"emails either. I'm going to call the store I visit mostly frequently this week to see if they can check the system to make sure I'm still part of the list. I worked hard to get on that list, I want my discount.....

Please post up when you get your invite, I will do the same.

I'll post for sure. I actually noticed I stopped getting emails since around then, too. My uncle as well. I talked to them and they claimed I had too many emails associated with my account, which was garbage. Eventually it just started again, though.

That's pretty much my experience too.
I still get the snail mail postcards and glossy ads though.

chump change went to $575!


That's new eBay setup, when you click through they went for $282, still lost a bit of money as I had to ship them to myself twice (moving around and had non-paying bidders before) and eBay fees / PayPal fees.

I went back and checked and I got an email on the 27th of October regarding the pre-sale, so we've still got some time. I'd imagine if we receive anything in the mail it might be this week?

Damn, no core items allowed? There's 2 denims, a chino, a 2 western shirts I wanted.

EDIT: Checked my list again, everything is from the Icon collection (core).
