The guy played the douchey antagonist, so it was definitely jcrew.


Ah, so you liked how it looked enough to post it here, but once you found out you were mistaken about the brand (and not the appearance), you are now openly mocking it. Classic.

A few days later I saw Ben Lawson in No Strings Attached wearing the same one. Seems RRL is being worn in a number of TV and movies recently.

That's not RRL, I have the rrL one. That's either j.who? Or Polo

I wouldn't say I was mocking it, simply making a comment about about the wardrobe designer's decision to dress a tired romantic comedy cliche in J Crew. I still like the shirt. In fact, I picked up the s/s version from Key West last night. Duderino, you're right, I only own a few of the oxfords which show on the one side. Thanks for sharing.

rrl wizard has spoken once again!

slim straights with a measured 32 waist and 34 inseam would be ideal. That's probably huge by SF standards.

Was just at the Chicago RRL store, the FI and Montana collections didn't do much for me, but they might not have had it all out. Good sale though--Kon Tiki was 30% off and Windships 40% (what's left of it). Picked up this overdyed linen/cotton blend buttondown. Awesome fabric, fit is spot on.

Yeah I am looking for something that is about 3 sizes down from the sea of XLs on ebay. Are Factory Outlet still the primary place to look for RRL. Which ones should be looking into for thing like Chambray (especially Red if that could even be possible) and Belts?
