9. "i got a love/hate relationship with the retro shit" In response to Reply # 0
i love it bc it gives me the opportunity to cop the shit i always wanted in high school but couldnt afford..
but i hate it bc of the hypebeasts. The good shit, mofos are buying just to resell. Also, some shit looks nice on the website, but is just OK when i see it in person. Macys got a ton of the Hi Tech shit just sitting on the shelves. Some is even 50% off right now. But nothing is really making me pull the trigger.

i typically cop a bear sweater every year, but i wait til they are around 150. i'm not really feeling the new bear sweaters though. Polo just dropped 3 new bear sweatshirts that are tough though.

I'm just not dropping over $800 for them. Hopefully, my size is still around when the prices drop after Christmas.
Last Christmas, my wife copped one. I didn't like the fit. So, I returned it for another Bear one that was on sale and a couple regular cotton cable-knits that were also on sale.
Does it matter who's doing it as long as they're doing it? LOL I think it's dope. I've copped some of the Polo Bear sweaters. Did so early this year when they hit sale racks. There are a couple more, right now, that I want but I am not spending over $400 to get them.
Besides Macy's, you can jump on Farfetch, END, or Mr. Porter to catch some of the pieces before they hit the resellers.
24. "so glad they put a polo store there" In response to Reply # 23
i drive to Northern VA about once a month for work, so I typically stop at the Polo outlet at National Harbor. But that ARundel mills joint has been a lifesaver for me copping those Bear of the month tees.
i got all of them except 2. Shits still got the tags on them. May break them out next summer. who knows. Maybe I'll sell them all at once on ebay.

store started selling their own line of stuff a opposed to the discounted off-season stuff from the main retail stores. And then, when Neiman's shutdown last year, it was a wrap until my wife told me the Lo outlet was there.

for the low. Nice prices on e'rythang especially brand name dress shirts, dress shoes, suits, sweaters, etc. Shit looked desolate the last time I walked past it.
My wife caught some nice stuff last year when Neiman's was shutting down. There was nothing in there for me by the time I went.
Did you know the True Religion store in Towson is now a factory outlet store? I didn't care for their jeans but I would buy cargo pants and denim shirts from them.

that used to be my go to for dress attire. When i started working here, I went and copped two Zegna italian wool suits, they were 2 for 1. I've come up on some nice ties there as well. i stopped shopping there so long ago that they dont even send me coupons anymore.
I try to avoid arundel mills by all means. I feel like the places i want to shop at are so far away from each other. We typically go there to shop for the kids though.
