The pearl clutching on the media's part about "french" is so silly. Is there anyone in the USA over the age of 7 who does know the word: fooked? And how many 6-year-olds are watching MSNOW?

Shoes - Giesswein - Merino wool uppers, made in Österreich
Shirt - Vilebrequin - linen, designed in France
Lightweight jacket - Cima Coppi - wool, custom size, made in España

As someone who is permanently unemployed, I have the time to do lots of research before I actually buy.
