Thoughts On Phinneas Cole

[vida]

Do any of you have experience with PC. I have seen it on the Paul Stuart site but not in person. I love the look and detailing...hacking pockets, peak lapels. I also understand that they have a copper color contrasting lining in the jackets. Have any of you worn the line? What are your opinions?
Also, I am a big RL Black Label fan. Any comparisons from those of you that have tried both?
Thanks for your input.

It's nice and more expensive than RLBL, especially in terms of sales.

In my experience, I have found the prices of PC to be comparable to those of RLBL, looking at retail prices. They both go on sale, but BL likely goes on a little bigger sale.

In terms of construction, they seem to be well made. Fit is excellent for a slimmer guy (which you likely are if you like RLBL a lot). And styling is very unique and interesting. I think they might be a bit too fashion forward for some of the folks on this board, but I really dig them. In fact, I think my next suit my be a PC.

I wear both RLBL and PC suits and like them both. I think the construction of the PC suits is "sturdier" whereas the RLBL's I have tend to be more delicate and not as suitable for regular wear...but it could just be the particular suits i have and may not be representative of the whole line. As the above poster says PC suits go on sale much less regularly also. The PC's also dont have as much shoulder build as the RLBL's I have. Anyway, I like PC alot and probably will be getting another sometime soon.

Thanks for your input. I 'm fairly sure I'll try a suit or jacket in the next week. I'll post my experience.
