Can someone recommend a cheap-ish grey textured scarf similar to this ragbone? Thanks!

Is chambray dead? If not, where can I get some good fitting chambray button ups? All the mall brand **** really sucks. The JCrew ones fit like a Bruce Lee top. I'm looking for a blue one and a gray one with an "athletic" fit.

Where would you guys suggest I look to get some decent slim cut solid color oxford shirts? Hopefully something with a similar cut to the Wolf vs Goat before dinners (plum/white/black all sold out in size S

). Budget would be up to around $130. Thanks!

Epaulet has several good ones. The fit on their shirts is amazing. For reference, I'm 5'10" and 170 pounds and wear a Medium. They fit slim.

Those look really good. Gonna pull the trigger on the blue one, most likely in a large. Shame they don't have an all out gray one though

Hey, just reposting this since I found no assistance in the ask a question topic.

I'm having trouble finding some winter wear for the season. In particular coats/parkas.
The only detail that sets me off is I'm really set on finding one with a fur fringe (faux preferably, but I'll take a real one if its reasonable)
on the hood, yet having a unique look and tailoring to the coat as well.
I'm not particularly fond of down coats, as I'm very tall and slender, and it makes my torso appear quite disproportionate.

Any assistance would be much appreciated!

Only winter coat you'll ever need.

I love the detail on the hood, and the extra drawstrings as well, but its a tad simplistic in my opinion. Just not entirely my taste, but its hard to say without trying it on. Definitely an option, and way better than what I've been seeing through hours of browsing. Thank you!
