I'm so bummed

This is going to be last season for the Portland Collection by Pendleton. I loved their modern take on classic Western and Native American textiles. Plus it was made in the USA.

Oh, that's a shame. I really like some of the items in that collection -- the reversible Oregon dunes jacket, in particular. Better stock up now!

That is a bummer. I had a bright red wool soft flannel button up shirt of their's I found in a thrift store years ago - it was vintage, maybe 1960s?. I wore the heck out of it for years and washed it regularly, it never faded, didn't shrink, didn't pill. Eventually I wore through the edge of the collar.

Rabbit, that would be regular Pendleton. That is not going anywhere. The Portland Collection was an experiment by them to be trendy. It was good stuff but hard to find.

How very annoying. I'm not familiar with the brand, but I've had a few tried-and-true favourites disappear, and it's so disappointing.

Ooh, this is right up my weekend look alley - wish I'd know about it earlier. I've thrifted a few regular Pendleton pieces and they are great quality.

The vibe reminds me a little bit of both Lands End and LL Bean's higher end lines, but with more interesting prints and weaves (I'd hope so with Pendleton).

So sad... I hadn't been paying attention, but they always turn up something cool. I like this jacket, for example:
