I can't speak for the powers that be, but I'm never opposed to wheeling and dealing.
And speaking of the SB3 (ahem) we have spent a disproportionately long and potentially unreasonable length of time reworking it, hence why there hasn’t been a release of it since before this time last year.
The development is quite slight on paper but has nevertheless led to a mild case of status anxiety. It still has a front of three buttons (hence the name) but the break point is now not at the top button but at the middle one. It’s a "3-roll-2" setup, in other words, to which I’ve always been rather partial. It makes the SB3 a bit more formal. We’ve lengthened the body, too, to accommodate the lower break, and sharpened up the shoulder just a little.
The first cloth we've used for it is tropical worsted ...
And the second is cotton airweave ...
There's a second colour upcoming in the airweave, too.
Oh — and matching trousers all round.
