I'm Mr. eBay so if it's not the right inseam (or I won't cuff them) I don't even bother

Tried on both. Went with number one. Had the second a couple years back and just didn’t like how cropped it was. Still don’t I guess. Took advantage of the sale to grab a few other things..

thanks for the pics.
I grabbed the Type 3, not really a fan of type 2 jackets. Weirdly the measurements are very close b/w type 2 and 3. Hopefully it fits me right.

This is my only RRL piece and I love it. Black cotton herringbone shirt jacket.

I bought a new RRL hoodie online but I noticed that the stitching is a bit odd. To me this seems like a quality control issue as the other side doesn’t have such stitching detail but maybe this is part of their design/concept. Can someone give me an advice if this kind of stitching might actually become more loose and become a problem, and if this is something I should get a refund for…

Looks janky to me. I think I’d reach out to customer service.

I'd get another. RRL qc is all over the place.

I’ve bought this through a retailer and not from the official RRL website. But sadly my retailer is out of stock for my size. Do you think I can still contact RL customer service for this?

This was the first time I ordered RRL online and also the first time I’m disappointed about the quality….

While I await my RRL haul to come in, I thought I’d share my current favorite piece, a western veg tanned overshirt. I am not used to compliments from strangers on what I wear, and this one throws me - pastors at church, people passing by in cars, men on the playground - this one does it.

It’s a great shirt, what season/year was that one from? The roughout over shirt was very tempting this year, but in the Texas heat, I’d likely almost never get to wear it, so I bought the rough out jacket instead, since it would be a little more versatile

Was just browsing a webshop when I noticed a specialty detergent category, much more expensive per wash than what I normally use (tabs of the leading brands in NL). The specialty detergent is, of course, marketed as being much better for your clothes. Not something I have previously considered; haven't really noticed deterioration from what I am using, but maybe I just don't know what I am missing.

Is "designer" detergent worth it, or a waste of money?

C’mon man. Don’t go looking for additional stuff to waste your money on. That’s what RRL is for.
Besides, don’t you value patina? You should be cleaning your clothes by beating them against a rock in a cold mountain stream.

Waste of money, hand wash if your worried.

Otherwise woolite dark is good enough imo

Thanks guys!

This is a great shirt - I love the HBT, the buttons, as well as the pocket delete. I need to wear mine more.

Nice haul! I've been eying that red chambray but waiting for it to go on sale. $295 is insane

it's a great shirt, not overly slim, fantastic color. In the realm of RRL shirts, $295 isn't insane. In the realm of relative to similar shirts from other makers, am sure a guy could find something similar for less. Also this one isn't core, so might get lucky come sale time?
