Franklin Mills is an outlet. Not likely to have anything you'd be interested in. I think you might be better off going to King of Prussia... the RL store there will have plenty of RLBL. they've also go a Bloomingdales, Neiman Marcus, ect.

What are the major differences between the Straight & Low Straight?
Is it just the rise or is the leg slimmer as well?

FYI. The Polo Factory Stores no longer carry the leftover RRL clothing not sold in the RRL stores or the Ralph Lauren stores that carry RRL.

Ah, good to know - although my factory stores never had any RRL, anyway. So where does the overstock RRL go to, then? Where do the ebay sellers find it?

Interesting. As of when? Last time I was at the one nearest me was this past holiday season and they had just gotten a pretty big shipment. Curious how long there will be any still on shelves, or if they actually pulled all the stock from existing outlet locations.

Thanks. I didn't go to any of the RL stores while I was there. I did end up at King of Prussia, actually, but didn't have time. C'est la vie.

I went last month to the Polo Factory Store in South Florida that usually has RRL and didn't find any. I asked a salesperson and she said the Polo Factory stores will no longer carry RRL or Rugby. You can sometimes find RRL at TJ Maxx or Marshalls, so that is where some people can buy it cheaply.

Am I the only one who finds it odd that RRL won't be in RL outlets, but it will be in various TJ Maxx and Marshalls? Seems strange for such a controlled, premium band to get offloaded to clearance centers like that in favor of the branded environment of the outlets.

Yes, exactly. Very strange.

I was just there two weeks ago and they had at least five pairs of green corduroys, three pairs of jeans, five pairs of khaki colored shorts, and a few t-shirts.
