What makes black label unique is its slim silhoutte--much slimmer than any other line by Ralph Lauren.Originally Posted by Bellison

A lot of us are slim and want things that fit us well.
Clothes in this country are cut for the average American--5'9", 39" waist. When slimmer people put on these clothes, we're literally swimming in them. Therefore it's pretty amazing when a fit guy is able to find clothes that fit well in this country.

looks sharp, but I wouldn't part with $900 for it.
You've been over-conditioned to assume that polyester = bad. They're not using polyester as a cheap substitute for wool in a sport coat here, they want a tech fabric look for a totally different type of jacket. That's like saying Loro Piana storm system is crap because it uses polyester.
Who the heck sees "100% polyester" and "$895.00" on the same page, and even THINKS about buying?Originally Posted by Unrefinery

So how much are you willing to part with?

Well, I'm cheap, so probably $400-ish, but that looks like one of those really nice items that will sell out before it goes on sale, so I probably would never snag it. I guess it doesn't matter how much I'm willing to part with, but how much you're willing to part with. If I had gobs of money to spend, I'd pick it up at full price.

I dislike the plastic cuff and neck tighteners.
