It’s no secret that if you’re looking for embroidered cords your first stop should be Castaway.  Their selection is truly unparalleled, and if they don’t make what you’re looking for there’s a high probability that it simply doesn’t exist.  Today’s Offered for Discussion topic is a pair of their Turkey Hunt Cords.  Adorned with Pilgrim Hats, Rifles, and, of course, Turkeys, are they the perfect pick for dinner tomorrow?

We do our best to keep from featuring items from the same brand within a few weeks of each other, but man, sometimes things come out that we just can’t resist.  Two weeks ago we talked about our friends down at Criquet releasing some great new pique polos.  Well,  they’ve also expanded their collection to include some great looking sweaters.  Our favorite is the Cotton/Cashmere Crewneck.

Whether your Thanksgiving plans include getting dressed to the nines for a feast of epic proportions, or just something low key that will probably end with you half asleep watching a football game, a great looking bow tie is never a bad pick for the dinner table. We prefer something a bit more low key than dancing turkeys, and this year our pick is a bow that will certainly fit in well with a number of crisp Fall looks.  It’s the Crawford Herringbone Bow from High Cotton Ties.

Crew’s outlet store, and, more times than not it’s too good of a deal to pass up.  On a recent visit we decided to try on a pair of their Sutton broken-in chinos.

Bean makes, the Ultralight 850 Down Jacket.

In our opinion, it’s still a touch early for Fair Isle, but in a few weeks it will absolutely be fair game.  Whether you already have a few great options ready to go, you’re looking for your first, or you’re somewhere in between, we think everyone can appreciate today’s pick.  It’s the Fair Isle Crewneck from Brooks Brothers.
