Sometimes credit lines increase without you wanting them to, I use the card often and immediately make a payment...so say I go and spend 100$ I'll use the card and make a payment of 100$ to build my credit....in due time the limit just goes up.....my broinlaw is getting married and the bridesmaids are all getting their dresses from Jcrew...it'll come out to probably 2k+ total, I can help them out and out it all on my card and have them pay me slowly, builds my credit even more and that high limit you didn't find any benefit on just came through...im not the first or last person with high limits on store cards and 4k really isn't all that much.

Please don't pay interest in the name of "building credit"

Only way it makes sense is if Steez pays it off right away and essentially just gives his fam an interest free loan. Otherwise he's paying the interest for them plus giving them the interest free loan, maybe he's just being nice and absorbing the cost for them?

It's family...so in a sense if I do decide to do it, if they need me to, I will....my wife is a bridesmaid herself too.

IN STORES & ONLINE: EXTRA 40% OFF FINAL SALE ITEMS WITH CODE FUNSALE.

That's for J. Crew. Not exactly half off but darn close.

Flyknit: it works for the black watch too. Just tried it.

White Stan Smith's or white Jack Purcell's?

pinoy732 · Jan 13, 2014

All preference man. I enjoy the latter.

stixx · Jan 13, 2014

@Pinoy732 when does the GAP sale end? I was going to go check some out today.

If I wear a 30-31 waist would I be able to get away with a 29 in 484s?

returnbama · Jan 13, 2014

They would be too tight imo

Today was the last day, wasn't really looking for a sportscoat, but at such a discount it was a no brainer...swiped my Jcrew card...also got a credit increase on it too...I have a 4k credit line with Jcrew...lulz

I think they're pretty generous with the credit line since the interest rate is darn high.

When I opened the card back in 2009 or so, my limit was $2000. I was thinking...dang, that's pretty high. But if you are rebuilding your whole wardrobe, which I've seen quite a few guys do, it's not much at all. You can max it out quite easily with the 3rd party items.

Pics of today's pick ups:

Wis,

I copped that tweed sportcoat last year...one of my best pickups from JCrew. Actually wore it this weekend too :smokin

Repped.

But gawd I hate living in Canada sometimes.

I'll have to pass :x

No way. My true waist is 32, meaning that's the circumference around my belly button and I take a 31 in the 484. My thighs couldn't even fit into a 30 comfortably.

Yep. It's a staple piece for sure. I need nothing else except a cape :pimp:

Ksteezy, must you always take the bait?

Every damn time. :rofl:

I haven't tried the stock locator service for J.crew. Couple questions. Does this have to be done in store or can I just call them up from anywhere? Also, can I only do this on full priced items?

Probably better just to drive up to Maine and get a pair.

true tech · Jan 13, 2014

I bought a pair last year. They definitely look cool but the fit sucks no matter how much I sized down and the traction isn't good. I would've been better off just getting my old field boots out the closet. They fit well and the rubber lug sole is good for the rain/snow.

dwalk31 · Jan 13, 2014

Here's my pair of bean boots. Not sure how long I've had them, they were a gift so I didn't get the shorter ones that I actually wanted. I was also on the fence with the dark brown vs. The traditional brown. They've held up well tho. I personally like the fit. I think you can send them to be re rubbered but I've never done it.

If anyone is a sz36 or 34, I saw the Black Watch trousers at the J.Crew at the Grove.

FYI it's not the tweed version. The hand is more softer so it's probably the version Adrian bought a couple of days ago.
