PBC Blazer Fitting 7/8 info form
Author Last Post

PBC,


Out of concern regarding weather, parking, COVID-19 safety, and air conditioning I have opted to schedule the fitting at the Key Bridge Marriott, just across the bridge 7 p.m. - 9:30 p.m. tomorrow, Thursday 7/8. Hopefully this doesn't disrupt anyone's plans - I figured this was reasonably close by and would have better parking.


By all means please do fill out the form here to let me know you're coming.


I'll e-mail everyone signed up with room information when I have it. Any issues, text 202-258-0787.

PBC,


Just a reminder that Thursday is around the corner and future Henleys probably not dropping the dress code - and if you ever go back to work you might need new clothes, too.


RSVP here location to follow (close to PBC don’t worry!)

John,


As far as the blazers you'll recognize them as the ones you've seen at all the different annual meetings and gatherings (well not this past year...) for the past few years.


Here's President, Olwen Huxley dedicating boats


Here's the 2018 Henley Masters E4+ note that Tom Kiernan (second from right) is wearing an older version


Here's Stu Sloan, talking to a slightly shorter man, in Henley-on-Thames


Here are Aaron Moburg-Jones and Michael Cunningham, enjoying some oysters at a previous annual meeting


Inside the lining is your name and monogram, and note also the two stripes and three stars on the cuff - a stylistic homage to the DC flag.


As far as the other apparel, if you've seen me leaving the club in the morning after rowing basically any weekday in the past 7 years... a number of other members have gotten non-PBC blazer apparel, mostly suits and shirts, and they're welcome to chime in with their recommendations.

Do you have photographs of the blazers and other apparel?

PBC,


Raj, the tailor that has fitted over a hundred of you in PBC blazers, will be returning for a fitting on Thursday, July 8th from approximately 7 - 9 p.m. Location will be in the Rosslyn/Georgetown area for convenience pending specific COVID restrictions. Please anticipate masks being required.


PBC blazers are $195, and other non-PBC made-to-measure clothes available are suits typically $295 and dress shirts typically 3/$100.


Reminder: orders typically take 12-16 weeks to arrive in the states following Raj's departure, so be patient and by all means inquire as to schedule at the fitting.


Please fill out the form below for a headcount and contact once location is determined:
