What's the deal with hilfiger made in Italy? Currently in the field.

H Hilfiger was their attempt at a more upscale line. Quality seems pretty good and I have a few canvas SCs for self. Some cool stuff from that line.

Anybody know what kind of fur this is based off this photo? It's insanely soft.

If not Mink, beaver would be my guess.

RE: food poisoning. Keep the Gatorade, but do yourself a favor and drink Pedialyte. (Works 100% incredible for hangovers too.) Seriously, I know it sounds ridiculous, but it rules. Get that and some Zzzquil or some mild sleep aid and just hydrate and sleep as much as possible.

Got out for a tiny bit today. Started off rough, but ended up decent.

PRL Wool, Cotton, Linen blend - Is there a specific name for this type of sweater? The-Bad-Guy-From-an-80s-Teen-Comedy Sweater?

in america, we call it a tennis sweater.

In theory a cricket sweater is heavier than a tennis sweater, so wool vs cotton and possibly sleeveless. That distinction doesn't really hold up anymore, so if you list them on eBay you'll probably want to include both in the title.

yeah, just gently trolling lalala, either can be traditionally lambswool although that can be quite hard to find these days. keyword both for sure, but in reality most folks will look for cricket sweaters.

i wonder if people are using the word jumper in their knit listings, esp for international sales i think it might be helpful for traditional-style aran, fair isle, cable knit, etc our cousins across the pond often use jumper to describe a pullover sweater.

Just picked these up off Craigslist from a dude that obviously does not wear Creed. Full bottles, non-testers, and haggled to $140 for the pair.

Nice deal. Aventus and Neroli portofino are my go to summer scents.

Picked the wrong place to wear these recently acquired Bontonis.. There's an open bar, I'm getting drunk, and every blog lyfe chick in LA is here taking selfies. #nosockstho

i don't think people in NY wear Synchillas. The only time Ive literally ever seen one was when a kid in the store was carrying one, and I said "thank god he's not looking for what Im looking for".
