Oh. Good one. I'm sure Brooks' site and York St. can offer much.

I doubt it can be tucked in! Ha. Fred Perry lost it's way when they let external designers in doing capsule collections. The best new stuff was the earlyade in Italy pieces, before all this mini collar shit kicked in.

Re: What Were They Thinking
I visited the Gant outlet store here in Lelystad over Christmas. The Soho pants were a revelation - they actually fit below the hips! Very strange, but ideal if you are bonafide non-sock wearing fashionista.
The jumpers were still a rip-off and the heritage OCBD's were disappointing on the quality of the oxford cloth which was not up to scratch.
When you compare the prices and quality with the nearby Ralphy-boy store, there is no competition. Ralph Lauren wins hands down: shirts including some of the business cut-away collars starting at Euros 29.99. If you can live with the polo player logo and the small collar on the button-downs then from a quality and price perspective in a outlet environment, then it is hard to beat RL.
