You should have held onto the shirt. You could have worn it for Breast Cancer Awareness month.

Who doesn't need a pink Brooks Bros. french cuff?? #CmonMannnnn

[DeNinny]

Pink is the new black.

[joey2aces]

hahaha... nooooo cannot keep the evidence.

[gioguy21]

hate to say it ...i was a manager for Brooks Brothers for about 4 years.

if you took it back and told them your wife did it...theres a 95% chance they take the shirt back and give you a new one.

if you buy another shirt while yo'ure there, your odds will be better they will replace it. we took back a LOT of shirts that we really shouldn't have.

also, if it's a guy manager usually you get better odds too lol (women don't like to be blamed for anything obviously)

[/quote]LMAO, I was thinkin the same thing, and as you know, I have/wear a lot of pink clothing, from socklets to sweaters and a few turtle necks, however I draw the line on a pink French cuff shirt. White, baby blue and a few blue pinstripes, that's it, lol

I do wear pink button downs with jeans, though never with a tie, lol

Boy, when I write this stuff down and read it, I might be more screwed up than I think I am

Anyway, I'd go Gio's route and see if you can get one from BB.

Have a nice afternoon Bro

LOL this post cracked me up.


One of these days, WRX needs to organize a HUGE centrally located weekend tourney so we can all get together and play some golf, shoot the breeze, break bread and have some of these conversations in person.

[KMeloney]

If only you had SWORN, this all might have gone differently.

[gioguy21]

FWIW, i have a pink french cuff shirt with white collar and white cuffs from Brooks...i wear it with a black pinstripe suit whenever i feel like i'm gettin "made"

ps, i'm italian.

[Kaysquare]

Real men can wear pink very well! Even Arnold Palmer wears a pink golf shirt more often than not....haven't you noticed that?

ahhh yes... been a while since I have been visited by the grammar police....

[sheppy335]

I have never ever done something like that. Mine was with my Footjoy rain top, washed with red one while applying nikwax to clean it. Lucky it was only the trim and it wasnt too pink.

[/quote]Bro, you could pull it off and it ain't the Italian thing(that's the black suit, black shirt, white ugly a** geometric tie, LMAO). You're younger, good lookin and live in the warmer weather.

I'm middle age, good lookin( ), and well, between my conservative client base and I've just always worn white and blue dress shirts, I don't know that I could pull it off. Hell, I just started wearing pin striped cuffed shirts a few years ago and I only wear those casually around the office.

But that other stuff, yea, I've been wearing that for a while though back in the early-mid '90s, when my Mother had her first episode, they didn't have much in the way of pink golf and casual shirts with the exception of Ralph Lauren.

But I didn't get much of a tan this year.

You all should see me in a pink shirt with a tan and my blue eyes!!

Wooahhhhh!!

LMAO, I had my 4:00 meds, can ya tell, LMAO?

Good thread Bro, LMAO

I'm having fun

Have a nice afternoon Gals & Gents

My Best,
Richard

You better rinse that washing machine again because most often, the second wash has a good chance of being pink as well.

They'd let you off with a warning for this one, I'm sure.

So, how's the pink shirt? Is the pink uniform and the shirt wearable? Or does it look tie-dyed? When all you want is a white shirt, then I'm sure it doesn't matter, but it'd be interesting to know if the shirt is/was wearable.

[Locutusoforc]

I have one of those red clubglove towels as well. even after washing it multiple times, it still bleeds red

[PeanutsDaddy]

I don't want to offend the Francophone population of Canada, but what is a French cuff shirt? It sounds like they should only be sold in pink, pack of cigarettes in the front pocket.

+1 breast cancer awareness shirt

[DavePelz4]

PD these are FC's. Meant to be worn with cuff links.

 

[DavePelz4]

Big fan of pink shirts...wear them with black shorts or dress pants and they can just look nice with a bit of pop.

Thanks DP. More cuff than I can handle. I'll stick to my non-French cuffs.

J2A is a pretty cool dude so he can "game" these rather easily. I'm an old man and fortunately they don't make us dress up for Meatloaf night at Denny's unless it's 2 for 1 brandy Manhattans, too.

[DeNinny]

^ DP4, isn't it Lenny's? Or Lennie's? I remember there used to be Denny's lounges by that name where the high class jet setters could get a drink after their grand slam breakfasts.

Ha. Conservative client base. That reminds me of a story. I had just started as the bank manager in a "rural"/farming area. I have a pink tie that I like to wear. I had an older gentleman pull me aside. He said, "I know you're new here. I just wanted to make sure that you were careful when you go outside. Lots of people aren't as accepting to the gays as I am." Yes, he presumed I was homosexual for wearing a pink tie. Yes, he called homosexuals, "The gays". It took all I had to not ROFL right in the middle of the lobby. BTW, the area wasn't THAT "rural"....

All of my fashion knowledge comes from Mr22putt. He's the Ralph Lauren of GWRX.
