^  You had to google Under Armour, seriously?  


Yes. When I did I realized my younger son has his basketball shoes with that logo :)

You know, where and when I was growing up, there were more or less two sportsware brands. You were either Adidas guy, or Puma guy. So, since I am kind of active, when I go to buy sports stuff, I just look for Adidas. Unless I'm buying ski equipment, in which case it's Rossignol. I'm a loyal customer :)

Charvet isn't new to the market. Holts Men had them for maybe a couple years before they parted ways roughly last year.

Ahh, I did not know that. Thanks for the heads up. I'm curious as to how well it will fare this time around.

Was at 82 Bloor no more than a week ago and saw some RRL. Either way, the outlets always has some

And on top of that, I remember that out of the non-outlet stores, only the flagship carries/carried RRL.

Gents, I'm after a rain/mac coat for the spring. Any suggestions? A coat that could dress up or down. Single or double breast, belted works

Lots of Burberry on Ebay, but I'd rather have something a bit more brand unique. Something SW&D inspired while still looking clean? Tough task I know. But there are some guys in this thread that I know can help.



Ideally $500 or less CAD. Will also consider used, on a nicer piece like a Norwegian Rain, Schneider, etc..


Thanks.

Buy some of Veilance off @Caligari. It's brand unique, clean and minimal.

If something specific, I can help get AV bellow retail

That's really nice plus the hood is super practical. Are their measurements accurate? I like the Eidos ulster coat in casentino but an IT 46 has 19.5" shoulders unless it's really a US 46. Did they ship USPS and were you assessed duties and taxes?

I'm between 48 and 50 in Eidos outwear and take 50 in field jacket and hunting jacket in FW weight so I can wear sport coat/thick sweater.

I went with size L in NR as per store recommendation (Greg and Kyle are great to deal with, just shoot email to customer service).

You can ask for USPS as shipping method but I get hit with both, duties and taxes almost every time. When I'm not too swamped, I ask to ship to my Niagara Falls mail box and just pay HST when bring jawns back.

Browse NMWA thread, there is some more sizing advice for NR as well as their other stuff.

What kind of shoes does Holts carry and at what prices? I have a $200 Holts gift card. All I have seen in the past though are crap Prada stuff etc.

What else would be worthwhile to use the GC on there?
