Trunk Club #2

Just in time for the holiday season, D agreed to give Trunk Club another try.   The nice thing about trunk club is that you work with the same stylist and can request a new trunk at any time.  Erin contacted us via email this time and asked if D had any special requests.  We told her to just send a variety of items.

Here is D's second trunk:


Bond Soft Cotton Blazer in Navy by JKT
D didn't love the fit or style of this blazer.  Also, he's not a huge fan of wearing blue which is a fact we mentioned to Erin in our overall box feedback.  Verdict: Return


RB15X 5 Pocket Twill in Gray by Rag & Bone
D has been wanting some gray jeans, but these are more of a greenish-gray khaki style of pants.  D really liked the fit and the color is different than anything he already has.  Verdict: Keep!

Dressy Sport Gingham Shirt in Burgundy by Gitman Brothers
I actually really liked this shirt and D thought it ok, but he didn't love it enough to keep it.  The high price point also didn't help.  Verdict: Return


L/S Fitted Dress Shirt in Purple by Jeremy Argyle
I liked this shirt too (probably because it was purple).  D thought it was a little too bright.  Verdict: Return

Normandie Slim Straight Dark Wash Jeans by Paige Denim
These are similar to the jeans D already has but a little bit of a slimmer fit.  D was not a fan.  Verdict: Return


Half Zip Sweater in Navy by Jeremy Argyle
This is the same style of sweater as the black one D kept from the first trunk.  The fit is great, but D doesn't like navy blue.  Verdict: Return


Half Zip Sweater in Brown by Jeremy Argyle
This is another version of that same sweater.  D really likes the black one from the first trunk so this brown one is a great addition to his wardrobe.  Verdict: Keep


Parke Loafter in Brown by To Boot
D had told Erin during their initial consultation to not send shoes but it looks like she decided to give it a try this time.  These weren't really D's style and he doesn't need shoes right now.  Verdict: Return


Edwin Belt w/ Nickel Buckle in Tan by Fullum & Holt  
D likes all his belts to be reversible to make it easier for when he travels.   Verdict: Return


D ended up keeping 2 items from this trunk and I think they will be things he will wear regularly.  While it would be nice to find things on sale, the service of having the items delivered in the perfect size  with no shipping fee is a great service.  Avoiding the craziness of the stores during this time of year is also a plus.  We gave Erin feedback to not send shoes again and to avoid navy blue items.

Anyone else trying trunk club?
