I'd go for option 3. And if they cock that up, get money.

The Apolis indigo chore coat was the last thing I bought before my 90 day no spend; have to say I'm pretty disappointed! Don't think it's worth the $200 I paid.
On the flip side the OSB socks I got for $6 or so are great, and the Jomers chinos (which I had a cheeky look at) are very nice for the price. Heyho!

Just picked up these for $175 from an Allen Edmonds store. AE has discontinued the Merlot color for Park Avenues, which is a shame because it's definitely one of the better colors for the Park Ave.  |

Picked up these Alfred Sargents for JCrew in Navy Suede last week during their sale for a little more than 50% off.  |

I'd been eying this shirt for awhile off rakuten and finally got it. A really nice shirt. Interesting fabric, twill face with a brushed back. I doubt I'll ever need to replace a button, properly sewn on. You know, with several wraps around the back of the button.  |

@61scout could you post some IRL pics?
How does the front feel? I get that the inside is brushed. Just wondering if it's flannel feeling outside also.?

I'm a 42S in jackets, and the IHSH-101/127 XL fits me perfectly, and is a good length. Would the XL be too big and long on me, 5'8" with normal proportions of torso to legs? |

I'm 5'11, I wouldn't want it any shorter. The sleeves are fine on me. I'll post pics and measurements tomorrow. |

Picked up the Orient Pepsi Mako last week, and the Orient Black Ray this week. Took the rubber band off of the Mako, and the metal band off of the Ray, and replaced them with Nato straps. Added them to my rotation. One day I'll graduate to Christopher Ward, and then to Omega. But not yet!   |

I like those Orients devastitis. I've never owned one but I'm in the market for another watch to add to my collection of.....one watch. I've never spent more than 300 bucks for a watch though, just not ready to make that big watch purchase yet. |

I've never spent more than 300 bucks for a watch though, just not ready to make that big watch purchase yet. Dang, if I had known, I would have told you when these deals dropped. I got both of these for <$120 combined over the past week (Nato straps not included). They aren't worth the MSRP price tag, but if you can get a good deal on them, like sub $100, then they're definitely worth considering. Orient has the Adventurer and Polaris that I love for a little more than $300 each using code HLDY2015, and between $4-500, Christopher Ward has quartz watches I'm looking at. I'm sure others have ones they'd recommend, but for sub $500, these are my favorite. |

Not sure why my pics are showing up sideways....
I received shipment of this Sugar Cane flannel today and I love it. It's very thick, I would guess about 10oz, and the buttons are sweet. The fit it great as well. This flannel has a chain stitch run off on it which I think is the first time I've seen that on a flannel, either way they are getting snipped. I don't like to leave them on. I believe this flannel is the from the Fiction and Romance line from Sugar Cane.
Very happy with this purchase, it's my first Sugar Cane Item. They make this flannel in two other colorways as well, a red and I believe a grey one. I'll be making more Sugar Cane purchases in the near future for sure.
