brooks stores have a half-off summer sale at the moment. mostly shite, but a few madras SS left for 35 bucks. landsend stores have some nice madras shorts, pincord pants, gingham shirts, and pale green chinos for 15-20. j crew gray chinos and red gingham shirts for 15.

Not a bad £-$ exchange at the moment.  Shamrock is a real gent, too.

Nope. Its still at the store, it was priced at 35 dollars. its a typical older style brooks 3 roll 2, swollen edge, sack, etc. it looks to be a slimmer fit, lapels are probably the standard 3.5-3.75" . Im going in on sat. to talk to the mgr. and point the stains out, if they sell it for a sane price ill take the risk and try to wash it. if it works out ill let all of youse know...

Shamrock,

Cheers.

Donegal might be of interest; definitely not Harris.
