Rugby's Version of Barbour




Rugby Ralph Lauren is biting the dust in about a week, but I feel certain that Sir Ralph will create something even better and cooler.  While we wait, I thought I would do a quick post on Rugby's version of Barbour Jackets (pictured above).  I love this jacket very much, but it isn't built like a Barbour Jacket.  The lining (though nice) isn't quite up to par, and the corduroy collar isn't as good of quality either.  But, for just a tat over $150, the price of a Barbour Jacket isn't worth the differences in quality.

 I do own a Barbour, but I did purchase mine from eBay.  I sprayed the darn thing down three times with Lysol, and then put it in the dryer with a Dryel bag and kit.  You just never know where something has been.

To the rude commenter who said I was losing my hair, I can assure you that I am not.

This picture was taken weeks ago, and was afer a tragic haircut that was too short.

I have always had a widows peak and a hairline that goes back on my head. It was like this as a young WASPer too!

But thanks for your concern!

Forgive me for calling you rude, I should not have done that!

Balding or not, you look like a complete doofus. And a short doofus at that. What are you, 5'7"?

Well, all the short people of the world are offended. Actually, I am 5'11" with shoes off, and 6'0" with them on. Concerning your manners, all I have to say is bless your little hear.
