Best things to load up on. I went in on both last spring during the usual 25% + 15% kicker sale that I'm good for a good while. Still have plenty of unopened boxers and undershirts.

 

[ultralightbeam]

Got 1 of 3 orders in. Hoping the others get honored. Only regret is not buying up all the RRL denim.

 

[yanky]

Shoulda went in on the boxers and other things. Only got two 3-packs, still waiting one one more to arrive.

 

[frankmatthews]

I honestly thing somebody recoded an employee log in.

Never thought about that. Honoring the orders to cover up the fact they got hacked. Maybe it was the polostore that did it. Lol

I agree Frank. As soon as I saw the Bring It Back Launch for Fall 13', I knew that RL was pulling the wagon down that road. But I think there are enough people around to preserve the culture through all of the hype.

Yeah that Bring It Back Bear was just testing the waters. How many people would have copped that at least 50% off if it had released under any other circumstance? I sure as **** wouldn't have paid $350 for it. Hell the Macys Bears never even made it to a sale rack just off the BIB Bear hype. I also see them stepping up their online presence away from the webstore, like the voting process for the BIB Bear. More social media type gimmicks. Ralph has always repeated themes almost to a fault sometimes, but seeing some of this stuff over the last couple years, it's just replication now. No creativity, or less at least.

I hear you.

And, I know you're familiar/friendly with some of the heavy hitters on the vintage side, but if you ask them, they'll say the whole scene was corrupted a few years after eBay blew it up. So, in one respect, the sky has been falling forever. But, in other respect, they're kind of right.

Like I said, I care a lot more about kids who don't know or didn't live through anything buying P-Wings for four figure prices with the click of a button than anything that happens to the modern/future apparel.

Once you can just buy your way into a culture, and the goal behind doing it is social media likes, that's when it jumps the shark.

Yeah, I'm definitely not justifying it, I don't like it one bit. I can definitely see ebay being a culprit, same as with jordans. From a consumer point of view it probably has been going downhill for quite awhile. The thing that concerns me recently is you see corporate buying into it and it seems they are considering catering to it. Despite the wave of urban consumers over the past few years I can't remember the last time they made a pair of shorts that came below the knee. They usually don't cater to fads, or what they consider fads. But when you're trying to grow your business exponentially you're gonna have to find ways to capitalize. Thats what I see as the real culprit, both with jordan and polo, it's the corporate focus on growing profits over maintaining a legacy or staying true to you're roots for lack of a better expression.

I get your concern is with the vintage wear and the posers trying to catch someone elses wave. I'm curious to know how you will feel when they "retro" that P-Wing and everyone and their mother is rocking it out here? I used to hate it when they retroed my jordan heat back in the day. You can try to protect the culture and close it off to outsiders all you want but Ralph owns the keys to those doors so if he want's to open em up thats what will happen. I would have never thought that would have been a concern with Ralph 5 years ago.

Dude I think you hit the nail on the head. I ordered mostly RRL and then some random stuff and all of my RRL was cancelled. They are definitely just selling the stuff that they don't mind letting go at 65% and keeping the rest. I know some people got some rrl stuff shipped but maybe they put a limit on it, but you are definitely spot on with everything you said.

I got an email stating some of my items are not available. Let me see those items pop back up the site. They will hear from me, for sure. But only after I have the rest of my order safely in my possession.

This is better than Christmas and Hanukkah.
LOL at you'll who used this opportunity to buy briefs and undershirts.

Right? Talking bout "the color is a little off, how can I return it?"


Still no word on my orders outside of them telling me the beacon hoodies and chambrays I ordered are no longer available. I tried to request next day shipping after the fact but I doubt they get to my request as busy as they probably are. I don't even wanna check my other email, cause i certainly wasn't gonna do all that tomfoolery on my existing polo account. I just want to wake up and see my packages at the door.

 

[aNYone]

Shoulda went in on the boxers and other things.

Only got two 3-packs, still waiting one one more to arrive.

Even though i got my order through im in the same position at you

Me being stupid i went back on the site and realized the mayhem i could of unleashed

I could of copped an entire wardrobe b

I should of raped RRL

I could of spent 200 on 3 packs of ts and boxers and been good for a long time

 

[polo sport]

theyll give you the current selling price. I wouldn't be surprised if corporate sent out emails about being stricter with returns though.

When you ordered with that code, under the Returns column didn't it say "N/A"?

 

[YGmoney757]

Yea it did ^

 

[baby jumpman]

I think he was talking about returning at a psychical store though. And I could be wrong but doesn't it always say n/a while the order is processing? Then when it's completed and delivered you have the option to go through the return process.

 

[t4t3r]

Really hope people don't try to return stuff to stores without a receipt to try and get full credit for the the item...

 

[hulk7280]

Only in America do you we anxiously wait and pray our orders for 100+ dollar hoody and jeans don't cancelled.

first world problems.. 

 

[mez 0ne]

I regret not getting more denim and a bath robe.

Nice. This is wait I consider one of the "real chief logos. The most recent 3-5 variations have been disappointing. I still think the painted women's leather jacket is the best Peice with this logo.

great pics Kush. I didn't realize how close the Fall 13' sweater was to the Aztec Flag sweater. I remember those sitting unsold at $50.

Thanks for some pics. This feels like s Jordan Retro release thread on a Saturday morning....

 

[gatorbeltsnpattiemelts]

can't believe I missed out on the opportunity of the century...

 

[dcbjordan]

The fit for the day. the jacket and sweater are both Polo Country.

[dcbjordan]

[YGmoney757]

Oh ok, I paid with paypal as well, I got order confirmation but no updates

 

[lzd325]

Hey, just got one of my orders in. Paid via paypal. Standard shipping. RRL Winfield jacket in Olive. Waiting for the RRL lightning bolt jacket to come in (has a shipping confirmation already).... The 3rd order is a RRL fleece hoodie... That's still pending... Orders should ship people!!!!!! Hang tight!!

 

[MaxP_3]

Props to all those that got through. Sad I missed out (although my sacrifice for lent was clothes and shoes I couldn't have copped anything any way). I just want to say I'm glad to see NT win a lot lately. Companies are really trying to let those who want to wear and use their products succeed finally.

 

[shloob]

lmao man i didnt even think to get the 3 pack shirts. someone hook me up
