Yes, his point about even the term "Ivy League" being somewhat foreign to many who had an organic, first hand connection to these clothes rings true based upon my discussions with older Yale alumni.
"IS: Darts don’t require a pleated pant?"
PW: "Absolutely not. Nothing requires anything."

Anyway, nice interview...
I've just been enjoying it too.
Paul is great. Chris is also rather good here too I think. Basic questions because I feel he's not really a clothes guy, but ones which let Paul talk well.
Is it better than the Boyer piece? On that one Chris wasn't as good I don't think and Boyer was just doing Boyer, so I'd say I liked this more.
Would John Simons talk to Chris? Could Chris do an unedited Charlie Davidson piece? He really ought to interview "Russell Street" one day too...
