faconnable

Any site got faconnable replica shirts?

[tomhorn]

doubtful as they are a psudo 'replica' brand themselves. Or rather a house brand for Nordstroms here in the US anyway.

Strange comment. What makes them a pseudo brand?

[tomhorn]

I think at one time they were their own fashion house, but Nordstroms bought them and they became their in-house brand.

 

They outsource the manufacturing to a third party, and you can probably find the same shirt being sold to several other stores as a house brand also.

 

Repping a house brand doesn't make a lot of sense, IMO. There likely wouldn't be enough of a market for it.

They have their own store in NYC. I like their clothes very comfortable. Anyway if you were a Amex member last week at a site they support they were selling facconable button down shirt for 20 buxx.

Nordstrom's sold them a long time ago http://nypost.com/2007/07/27/nordstrom-sheds-faconnable-brand/

Nothing against the brand.  Nice stuff overall.  Price does not necessarily warrant "repping". 

 

My impression of the brand is that it is the brand the "Ambercrombie & Fitch" crowd graduate to. 

 

Not a dig or insult, just an observation.  In the mall's near me, they are adjacent to or next to an Ambercrobie store.

 

For the same price as their shirts, you could actually do better with a Made to Measure at a local tailor or Nordstrom.  Nothing beats custom shirts tailored to your build.
