    Harrington Baracuta makers?

    Not exactly a Baracuta but pretty similar: http://www.llbean.com/llbeansignature/llb/shop/65140?subrnd=1&parentCategory=505929&feat=505929-sigtn&cat4=505928 And if you want to order a real one this place below has a decent selection and of course no VAT to US buyers. Personally I like the G4...

    Leather Holdall - Grafea - Any Experience?

    I actually like the design. When I said crude I was referring to the fact that it's unlined and that the leather is a little rough around the edges. No zippers which means nothing to snag or break. Back many years ago I bought a raw leather rucksack in Athens and this holdall has a similar...

    Leather Holdall - Grafea - Any Experience?

    Always on the lookout for a vintage looking leather travel bag, I found this "holdall". It's a bit crude but decent size and has lots of pockets. For $270 and made in the EU, it could be a good deal depending on the quality. Does anyone have any experience with this manufacturer? I've never...

    The Filson Thread

    Might as well...not pay full price. This website has Filson at 20% off AND free shipping. I ordered a coat from them recently and it actually came directly from Filson. http://www.joessportinggoods.us/filson.html

    Collar up?

    When the wind is howling as it does here in this town, the collar has to be UP. Heck even my scarf complains that it needs some protection from the wind! The best part about owning something functional - like a jacket with a big collar - is that it may look cool, but that's incidental since...

    Men's DRESS BOOTS to suit all budgets.

    I just ordered a pair of the Herring Gosforth - not exactly of a dress boot, but depends on your definition. Anyone have experience with this Herring website? Product looks nice and at the non-VAT price not bad. I've never ordered from a UK retailer, so we'll see. Hope they fit! I'll post my...

    The Vintage Outdoor Look has Gone Mainstream

    According to today's Wall St Journal, the men on this site are all in style now. Vintage is now officially "in". I read this article with a feeling of ambivalence. 10 years ago, no one I knew had ever seen a bag like my Filson Travel Bag. Now, they sell it at Barney's. Well, I guess going...

    overnight bag

    I second the AWOL bag request below. Add a brass zipper and a shoulder strap and I'll by one. Please keep us informed of when they're available.

    overnight bag

    Does anyone have a JW Hulme leather duffel? I'm considering buying one but wanted to get some opinions. There's very little about their product on the internet. http://www.classicluggage.com/J.W._HULME_LEATHER_LUGGAGE_COLLECTION.htm

    For Sale - Aero Highwayman FQHH Size 40

    Just in time for fall: I'm selling my Highwayman to fund the purchase of a mid-length Aero. Condition: The jacket has rarely been worn; my estimate is 10-20 times. It hasn't really fully broken in yet. More scuffs from taking it out of the closet than from wearing it. Once I realized it was...

    LL Bean Signature

    I own the medium Downeaster Sport Bag ($64) and I'm happy with it. It's a blue canvas duffel bag with metal zippers and a plaid lining. Well made and worth the money. I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box. I ordered the leather Vacation Bag and it had to go back. It was fine, but...

    overnight bag

    I received the brown version of this new leather LL Bean vacation bag. http://www.llbean.com/llbeansignature/llb/shop/66939?subrnd=1&from=SR&feat=sigsr I has a very vintage appearance (as intended). For the money, I think it's pretty good, but not great. For about 2x the money you could get a...

    Quality shoe brands in the UK?

    There are many high quality shoe brands in the UK. And the selection is large, value for money is good (even by U.S. standards). Church's is high quality and makes a wide range of shoes. Prada bought them a while back and I hear quality isn't as good as a result. But for me that's Internet...

    Duluth Trading Co - AWOL Bag

    LL Bean has a new leather overnight bag that looks similar to the AWOL bag. One of the problems I had w/the AWOL was the plastic zipper - it didn't look durable. I'm glad the LL Bean model has a metal zipper. I ordered one of these LL Bean models so we'll see how it is...

    D’Aosta Luggage Company

    Did anyone here end up buying anything from D’Aosta Luggage? I like their small cases for carry on purposes.

    Show us your SHOES !!!

    Got a card in the mail today: The Alden Shoe Shop on Madison Ave & 44th St (in Manhattan) has $50 off shell cordovan shoes and $30 off the calfskin models. I don't know if their prices are otherwise great or if you can get a better deal online w/out this discount - but hey, I'm passing it...

    These brown loafers just went on sale on the U.S. site. http://www.shipton-usa.com/arundel-brown-unlined-premium-loafer-3256-0.html I also like these but they're not exactly for summer: http://www.pediwear.co.uk/paraboot/products/2999.php

    I need a good rain coat

    Reasonably priced and well within the budget. Appears functional, if basic. You may want Gore-tex for waterproofing, but then that might challenge the budget. http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/63070?parentCategory=504720&feat=504720-tn&cat4=504714 Only in large sizes but I've wondered if...
