Susie, yes you are ready to go overseas! The grand irony is that by wearing clothing which was once considered quintessentially American (you can get any more American than Brooks Brothers), you may be pegged as anything but American because now most Americans dress as if the entire world is their personal waterpark. And good on you for your acquisition! Nothing beats vintage Brooks Brothers! Sadly, the Brooks Brothers of recent years is a far cry from what it used to be (I'll probably be doing a post on its decline and fall) and the best OCBD (Oxford Cloth Button-Down) shirt is now made in...Japan. I'm prepared to take some shit about this statement, but my position will be made clearer in the post.

Scott, you don’t know this, but I nailed down a vintage Brooks Brothers classic blazer and button down shirt with large angel-wings at the collar, all because you sent me on this curiosity junket. I am now ready to visit the world.
