So I stand corrected: A HUGE fortune!
The vintage originals sell for more money than the Japanese repros.

Now all JCrew needs to do is add some rise to the trousers and they may have a halfway decent looking product.

it fits seems to fit better than the other ones available
i wanted to put some black cats eye buttons on it to make it look more like a 30's or 40's workshirt, any idea where to buy Black Cats eye buttons

I bought this shirt last week. It's pretty darn good for the price. Warning though: for some reason the gray fits a full size larger than the blue!

Looks like RRL has a version of a Brown's Beach Jacket this season......
Saw a version of this at the Ralph Lauren outlet today. Handwarmer pockets instead of the patch pockets. Had a hood. They nailed the feel of the fleece-y interior of the real browns beach cloth. Snaps had Ralph Lauren in the correct font. Nice attention to detail. Even on clearance, though, it was over $400.

That is awesome looking, but a little out of my price range.

Not a fan of the patchwork style on new stock.

Planning on swapping out the buttons, but I like the look. Sort of Indian Blanket meets Browns Beach.

I did. Got this one, which, if you use your imagination a bit, has a Stiffel-like pattern to it:

They are "slim fit", so even an XL was a bit tight for me in the chest and sleeves. Quality/fit are decent---made in China, so we can't expect much. I got it for 25% off as well.

The whole beauty of a patch is that the wearer sewed it himself, out of necessity, and gave his garments a unique personality!

Yes, but true vintage patchworked pieces sell for thousands of dollars these days. RRL offers the same look for much less money.
