What are you talking about?
the bad joke
Oh. Derp.
I think Gristy felt the comment "Maybe something to do with the brand?" was a bit unnecessary due to recent events.
EDIT - I clearly type far too slow!
Don't forget anyone in a public forum is pure. None have ever laughed at or told a sexist, discriminate or racist joke ever.
Of course there is but obviously they will get neg'd and deservedly so. There is a time and place for everything and it seems most people don't agree the joke was done at the right time.
The incredibly distasteful 'joke' not withstanding, are the shirts any good? Never heard of the brand before.
The shirts are Rhodes & Beckett's more accessible brand. Different materials and manufacturing process, slightly different designs, similar cuts.
Well, it might not be a joke by the original poster - given the negative connotations of the name, perhaps the suppliers are attempting to offload as much existing stock before changing the brand name?
Sorry it wasn't meant to be a joke, I've removed that line from the post. I did wonder if the discount had something to do with the recent events though.
There's a few $99 shirts on Myer website but none at $70. OP can you clarify which shirt this was.

Boston Brothers shirts are crafted using pure 100% pure cotton sourced from the finest mills in Europe."
Here's what I bought, had a $99 tag on it: http://i.imgur.com/3GCdOiD.jpg
Usually the 75% off sales are clearance items or discontinued items, products advertised on their website are usually new stuff (unless in their sale section), so I doubt any of those styles will be found at 75% off.
This was from the sale that ended on the weekend right?
Everyone else was buying 75% off suits etc , ie scored 100% wool pierre cardin suit for less than $90.00
Also just about every Myer has a 75% off rack you just need to find it
Bought 3 shirts Myer Melbourne yesterday for $200, reduced from $300… I wish they were $17.50! They are good shirts.
Given that receipt says AW 12 (Autumn/Winter 2012) it may have been clearance of last year's stock.
Boston Brothers shirts are pretty nice, they are a (slightly)cheaper brand of Rhodes and Beckett as someone already mentioned.
I have had three of their shirts. Two of them (which I bought first, together) wore out within a year or so of wearing (at a guess) slightly less often than once a week. Both ripped in similar areas on the arm, and I definitely didn't snag either.
The third I still have but it doesn't iron well so I don't wear it.
I would say obviously for $17.50 that's a ridiculously good price, though I would probably still pay $40-50 and get Oxford shirts in their regular sales. I find Oxford to be well cut and great materials, and for me they last longer.

i'd choose tm lewin $36 or charles tyrwhitt $39.50 instead :)
No joy at the Sydney city store. Scanning at $99.
No joy at Chatswood, Sydney either…
Great Shirts! I bought one for a wedding about 3 months ago. Just has a feel of quality. I would have been down at Myers tonight if i could get them for that price.
too soon
