This the dude who has 70+ pairs of pants.

I'd be set with 1/4 of his stuff.

I'm done buying stuff for now. I got a pretty versatile rotation. I cannot wait for Fall to hit now.

I still feel that my closet has room for more.
But I have tried to cut back. Like these s/s oxford by RL Rugby.
Great price ($25) and fit for solid colors. So far, I have held back.

Not sure for how long though.

The same with these $30 button downs.
http://rugby.com/shop/ite...31325&categoryId=3372180 .
And these $40 solid oxfords:

Very tempting.

To those looking for suits and are size 44-48, this slim CK suit looks like a great deal for $180:

There might be a coupon floating around the net for extra savings too.
This CK tan suit is a steal if you can find your size:

Macys.com has other CK suits on sale but they do not look slim fits so I won't recommend them.

Since it is a Euro brand or more specifically, a Euro GAP, it should be slim fitting but again only those NYers can attest to how it fits.
Reasonably priced for $150-$160.

Overall, the website just has a lot of nice clothes, specially jackets for a nice price if you are looking to get ready for fall/winter.

too bad none of those are wool...and the wool one they have is navy...i need a black or grey cropped pea coat

If you are in NYC and stop by store its like 15% off for student
RFX45 - I cant lie the fit is to the t, real slim fit H&M doesn't compare in fit and either does Uniqlo. When you talk about Topman be sure to size up because the clothes fit real slim.
As far as quality goes it goes like Uniqlo > Topman > H&M
With the fitting of the clothes its definitely like
Topman > Uniqlo > H&M

you have to be careful when dealing with the trenches the M could fit you perfectly but the sleeves are not long enough , its a real European fit that's for sure.

not sure what size top i would wear for topman

i wear medium button downs in uniqlo and large button downs in h&m...would i fit a large or x-large in topman?

not from NYC so i can't go there and try on

 

[hammerdown10]

also, i signed up for "stylemail" and never got a free shipping code for topman

[falcon4567]

Any pics of your finished product?

 

[jkissi7]

sorry guys was kind of busy these days, but scanned through answered questions

Superproducer : Some of the jackets are in store , others aren't we get shipments every single day of the week so new merchandise is constantly beingreleased and old replenished

wj4- a number of places I get my skinny ties from either ebay for like $15 or uniqlo/topman/ I keep it simple with the ties and the price point especiallyskinny ties I'm not trying to drop $100 on a tie. Rugby has this nice madras print one too.

Cashmere Thoughts - those are Red Wing boots, their lastest and newest design scheduled to release next spring so yeah Spring 2010

Hammerdown10 : Thats a bit of a hard one for Topman I would go with a L if you did a Medium in Uniqlo which is not as slim as topman you will be fine with a Lin Topman

I really like that jacket.

 

[rfx45]

^^^
I still wish I could pull off trench coats in SoCal.
There are so many double breasted coats I want to buy but it will just rot in my closet if I do.

Thanks for the timely reply

. We've got some time before the winter cold hits us, so I'm not rushing into this. Thanks again though.

 

[eebs7eez]

rfx- what's the actual name of the brown ricard's you have? by far the closest comparison, i'd be very happy with them. also, another pic of thembeing worn would be much appreciated. hopefully finding 9-9.5 by the end of september...

 

[rfx45]

New Rag & Bone jacket finally arrived.

It doesn't fit as well as I had hoped though.
Not just the sleeves being too long, but overall.

 

[seanyboyy]

RFX45, I love the versatility of that jacket. I've always been looking for something like that.

I'm not sure what your question really is. Ricards is the name of the Paul Smith boots I have.
Here's the pic I posted before of the brown Ricards plus some additional ones:

The flash makes it a lot lighter than it really is. It has a nice deep, dark brown color though.
Here's a pic of a different boot but of the same color by the same maker, it should give you an idea on how dark it is.

 

[eebs7eez]

just realized how poorly worded that was, i meant the colour. as long as that's the only brown available, that's all i need to know. second boot isnice as well, thanks.

That looks REALLY fresh... How much it cost?

 

[rfx45]

I see. It is called dip-dye brown.
It should be the only brown Ricard unless you find a cordovan color, which is somewhat like brown but it is shinier or somewhat much more smoother.
It should look like this:

 

[jojobud]

anyone got a good recommendation on a nice shoe? mainly for going to the club...i'm tired of wearing nikes there.
