i learned that if im stalking you and that you know it and call me out on it, on a medium such as this forum, then you must be stalking me as well. edit: i also know that you probably see this but will not post to it at all or until a later in order to try to make some point.

True. But if you're going to FSC, I'd still second the recommendation to try the restaurant too.

Restaurant list please.

I love the space/decor of the restaurant and also have yet to have a bad meal there, but then ...

Has anyone been to FSC lately? Any sweet new spring gear and/or sales on FW merchandise?

A couple of times a year they would have some private event at the restaurant but set up the velvet rope at the beginning of the alley, right there on Rivington. I went down to take the trash out one night in shorts and flip flops and the woman working the velvet rope wouldn't believe me that I was just trying to take out my trash and tried to have security guards stop me from going into the alley; she thought I was trying to sneak into the event and my trash bag was a ploy.

NYC is pretty ridiculous sometimes.

Cross-posting this from B&S in the hopes of getting at least one reply:

I'm looking to buy any used (or new) Freemans Sporting Club clothing and/or accessories. I wear a medium in their shirts and jackets, and am a 32 in pants.

If you have any shirts, jackets, ties, etc. you're looking to part with, please message me.

Thanks!

Has anyone tried their wool shirts? At $200+ a pop they don't seem like a good value.

Back from the dead...

I'm looking at buying the FSC Isle of Man Parka. Looks like they run rather big so I imagine I'd be sizing down. Anyone own this jacket or tried it on?

Re: their tailored clothing
Looks like J Press at more than 2X the price.
It's pseudo Ivy in that the jackets appear from the WebSite
to have squarish shoulders as J Press has had in recent years.
Yes Martin Greenfield is a major plus but to me the design
is very deficient. For the Ivy look I'd go for the Andover Shop,
OConnells, and for a bit more money, Winston tailors MTM

Anyone else experience "irregularities" this Holiday season with the esteemed FSC?

2 items purchased online late last Month were ultimately sold via brick and mortar.
No replacement was offered and the refund remains as tangible as rumor.

Hopefully an aberrant showing from them.

Federal Trade Commission seems to allow a one month window for said business to restore the payment.
This is day # 19.


any pro bono legal counsel is welcome
