Pickup: RRL Selvedge University Stripe Oxford

I've been looking for a university striped oxford for quite some time now. While browsing the RRL room at Lane Crawford in Hong Kong I spotted this shirt in a small. I asked the salesgirl if they had a medium and she helped me look for awhile. We were about to give up when I spotted the same striped sleeve poking out of a basket high up on the wall. I took it down and managed to find a medium inside, my lucky day as it was on sale too. For those interested it's made from Japanese fabric in Sri Lanka The fit of this shirt is spot on, a little slimmer than my Gant Rugger one but not too tight.

  1. In the words of every blog these days: so crispy.

    (I hope that phrase dies fast)

    I'm going to HK in Sept - will have to check out the store.

  2. Thanks. There is a Lane Crawford in most of the big malls. I must have went to at least 4 while I was there. Although I picked up this shirt at the one in IFC mall which I would have to say had the best selection.

  4. Yeah there is a surprising lack of Ralph Lauren in Canada with the exception of a few pieces at the Bay so it was nice to see some in person. Thanks, it's good to be back.
