Okay, so what's the skinny on this, mate?

davestlouis said:Found a "Lauren by Ralph Lauren" sport coat today for $8 at Goodwill. Not a tweed exactly, but multicolor weave, will look great with tan or mushroom trousers, maybe even charcoal or black. I think this is the el-cheapo line of clothes sold at Kohl's and Steinmart, but for $8, who cares?

OK, it's a gray on almost black houndstooth with a little gold, red and either green or blue thread running through it...not too different than the one above, minus the obvious windowpane.
Made in Canada, too.
davestlouis said:I looked at the labels in my new one, and a navy blazer I bought at Steinmart for $99, and aside from Made in Canada vs. Made in China, the labeling is similar. Even if it is only a $100 retail item, I figure I only paid 8 cents on the dollar, so no complaints here.
funneman said:I agree with others on this thread, it kills me to pay ten dollars to dry clean a blazer I just paid five dollars for.
I've been kicking myself in the butt for not paying $22 two weeks ago for a London Fog 40's style trenchcoat in pristine condition,......it was GONE two hours later when I went back for it!Forget about going back for something. I've tried that a couple of times and the item I wanted is always gone when I go back.
