My wardrobe has up to this point consisted of mostly blue, grey, some white, and a few select shirts in other colors. However, after popping into Brooks Brothers and being struck by the amazing display of this earthy hue of green, I will have to reconsider. The sports jackets all had this incredible depth of color, with flecks of rust, yellow, blue, and lighter green. It looks like its time to re-assess my [clothing] prejudices. Fortunately, the Friends and Family promotion occurs this weekend…
On a side note, I also tried on the new extra-slim fit oxford sport shits. I’m not quite sure what the fit model looks like, but i don’t think he looks like most of us. I can wear a Fitzgerald suit (38R) right off the rack, but these shirts were either just tight enough to be uncomfortable (small) or like a tent (medium). The neck size on the small felt like a 14 1/2, whereas the medium jumped to at least 16. Such a shame because they are beautiful shirts – great weight and softness. Hopefully they fit you better than me.
