  1. Purchased a navy stretch wool suit online. Jacket came with large snag on front. Exchanged. Replacement jacket received was several shades darker than pants. Returned all.

  2. I think the new rollout is live, I see several items that appeared on Pinterest the other day but some things are just starting to run together for me. I'm pretty sure my wallet is safe though.

    1. FYI - For those still looking, the Vintage Puffer Herringbone Vest is back in all sizes at Factory, it's FS though.

    2. Does anyone know if the factory herringbone vest runs large? I really want to buy but don't know if I should gamble on final sale.

    3. TeriLynn13, I'm pretty sure that it runs like the retail version which is to size down one or take the smaller of your two sizes. Here is a review from 'Musings on the Mountain': http://musingsonmtn.blogspot.com/2013/08/jcrew-factory-fitting-room-early-fall.html

    4. I'm waitlisted on the vest now (took too long to decide so I hope it goes through). I just went with my normal size XXS. Sizing down isn't an option unless they start making XXXS for factory.

  4. JCrew wont issue refund for returned items I mailed in bc my credit card is over drawn. They insist the bank wont accept the refund. Please. They charge $1/refund and since my card is maxed out they cannot proceed. Now I have to wait for my credit card pymt to post, then call back for refund. J crew has done this to me numerous times. What a joke.

  5. Is the herringbone vest printed? If it is, does it look tacky?

    1. breakfastatvictorias - Hi. The herringbone vest is printed. I didn't initially like it because I wasn't expecting it to be printed, but it grew on me.. I own it and get compliments each time I wear it. Moreover, *I* really like the way it looks. It layers well w/the downtown field jacket. Review here of the vest .
