    a lot of people just do an office 365 subscription, pros and cons with this - biggest con is you keep paying since it is a subscription.

    you could buy retail, which is expensive, or get a key from a gray market source like g2a.

    You will have to install and activate over the telephone if you go this route, but it is much cheaper. They give you an activation guide that will walk you through the steps.

    What are the go to latop bag/ briefcase with shoulder strap. Looked quickly at Fislon and Mitchell. How much do the Mitchell's run ? I'm guessing $1k+ What else is in the top tier?

    I do not want to make fun of any non-celebrity’s or Clemson affiliated person’s clothes, bc I am by no means a fashionista, but there is either something off about the jeans or something off about the dude’s legs in that top photo..

    Ya they look almost photoshopped on. They're J Brand in the size/fit I've bought for years, so I assume they'll fit fine. Theory is apparently the only place that sells J Brand any more, so got them on sale for like $75. Ideally the sale isn't due to some fuckup because they're not returnable.

    I don't know if it would be considered top tier but it's high quality. I bought this bag from Korchmar about 8 years ago still love it. They actually make bags for Allen Edmonds which get rebranded as AE products. Mitchell is definitely a step up but at more than double the cost. Made in the US which is nice too.

    If you like the Filson waxed canvas also check out J Stark. They are made in the Charleston and very nice. I have this one and love it.

    I also have an older Coach leather briefcase that has held up amazingly well.

    If money isn’t an issue, based on the longevity of that wallet, I’d be hard pressed to find anything better than the Mitchell briefcase. I’ve also looked at the Shinola briefs in store before and they are a step below in terms of looks but still very nice bags.

    Somebody goofed. The real tmb approved wallet was from saddleback and mine is 10 years old in calendar time and appears to be 0 by looking at it.

    This is late but those mostly resemble chubbies swim lined swim suit. I have 2 pairs and they’re awesome to wear on a boat.

    chubbies, lulu, birddogs, meripex apparel (cheaper type of birddogs) and four laps are all great. Shorts have become my thing and I’m embarrassed to say how many pair of these listed I own.

    I have some shorts and joggers from Vuori. Didn’t realize til earlier this year that they’re from San Diego and that’s why I see their stuff being worn around town so often.

    Now I’m sitting here wondering how popular it is outside of this region.

    Buddy hyped Vuori, so I asked for a pair of pants as a gift. The second time they were washed, the belt loop got stuck on something and ripped the belt loop and put a big hole in the ass. Never happened to anything else in the same dryer (before or since then).

    To their credit, I emailed customer service and they sent me a new pair after I sent in pictures. Been thinking about selling the new pair of Vuori to buy more Lulu

    I may need to give vuori another shot. I bought one of their lounge pants and hated how thin and cling wrap-esque they were. Moved on to Mack Weldons for my go-to lounge pants.

    Also, Mitchell Leather toppled Saddleback as the official TMB wallet many moons ago.

    i would not call it top tier, but there is an indian seller on amazon called "Komal's Passion Leather" and their prices are insanely good for decent quality stuff.
