All these companys are really stepping it up

Hi

Wow, that stuff is expensive. Grandpa Mike worked on the Wabash for about 40 years or so. He didn't make enough to pay those prices even after inflation. Jeez.

I don't think we posted this yet, but LVC's S/S 2013 themes are turn of the century miners and 1950's hot rodding:

In my opinion F/W 2012 was waaaay better, but I'm sure there will be a few pieces in this collection that I'll be lusting after as well.

Very excited today to discover these 2 workshirts at JC Penny. Very well worth $18. Anchor print and a bandanna/ Stifel-esque print.:eusa_clap

Yeah the hot rodder stuff just isn't there.

RRL beat them this year in my opinion. Even the photography is treated better. Looks more period correct.

Im not liking the ultra distressed look.
I want it to be a crisp repro!

I like the RRL style but don't understand why you can't buy the same kind of thing elsewhere for cheaper and be just as happy...The RRL style clothing is not so unique as to make it hard to find.

But has anyone bought any RRL tailored clothing? I would be curious about that.

 

[DamianM]

Oh you can find it new yes. Do we want to pay those prices maybe not.

Im liking the pants

I'm assuming the pants are Polo too, and as much as I love some of the styles they are usually way too low waisted. That's fine, but suspender buttons on low waisted pants doesn't make sense to me.....

DAM MOOSE KNUCKLES!

yeah ive seen some modern ones lately that have a low waist and suspender buttons...ugh.

The RRL pants that I own are all pretty highwaisted, so I will wear suspenders with those!
