In terms of fit I don't see much difference. It may be a little less boxy but that also limits layering options especially sweaters which is my go to fall look. They did away either the cute lining on the sleeves so is you roll up the skevrs it's just a plain navy, black or gray lining. Also the material seemed lighter and less structured (actually cheaper looking to me). Curious to hear what others think.harrycaray24https://www.blogger.com/profile/02081352375909120691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-69431142293656021062013-07-26T02:19:06.607-04:002013-07-26T02:19:06.607-04:00Well, just bit on the full price Collection leathe...Well, just bit on the full price Collection leather mini from the latest rollout.

In the Aug catalog, they claim that the reason for the new version is because they "listened" to their customers. But who ever complained about the Schoolboy??

I haven't tried the new one on but since I like the way the old one fits and own 2 I'm not tempteted to buy a new one full price. I also think the colors for the new school boy are basic and boring -- I have navy. The only one the might interest me is the grey and only on sale. harrycaray24https://www.blogger.com/profile/02081352375909120691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-85692559817458681672013-07-25T14:00:47.474-04:002013-07-25T14:00:47.474-04:00I do, for sure share the 'blah' sentiment....I do, for sure share the 'blah' sentiment.

Even the tag is a canvas like material vs. the retail tag which is dark blue with white stitching spelling out 'J. Crew'. The J. Crew label on the factory stuff looks just printed on. Always ask the seller if the said item is factory. I once bought a gingham perfect shirt and didn't know it was factory until I got it a few days later.

Crew on the label. It is hard on Ebay since many sellers don't always state it is factory or show the label. But that is certainly a question I always ask or request the style number. Also, since many of the retail prints are being duplicated in the factory in the next season. It is good to note what the material was in the retail version, usually factory will exchange a silk (retail) to polyester (factory) but the style looks the same.

But went online and bought the classic Schoolboy Blazer (old cut)- I'm very excited since I've wanted this jacket for AGES but could never pull the trigger due to price!<br /><br />Question for you j crew experts - for factory pieces do the tags usually say "J. Crew Factory"? I Ebay'd a hacking jacket for a steal and wasn't sure if it was factory or not (not that it really matters since either way it's a really nice jacket, just curious!)TeaElleYouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16972328668835441652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-88051841635163905502013-07-25T10:42:21.534-04:002013-07-25T10:42:21.534-04:00I agree.

But..there's supposed to be some sort of 25% off $150+ promo coming. How it was told to me is that my vps, "is going to be able to offer 25% off $150." No mention of when or any other details. I assume it's a fp promo. Don't know if it's for cardholders, etc.. I get invited to some of the in-store events and usually am unable to attend. I later find out that there was no promo offered during most them. Just brownies and coffee. lol Really, the best source for promo info is this site.
