[Doc4]

to many of the responses.

to the work of the Mods in keeping shills and their "objective comments" off this forum. It is through moderating work such as this that we can place some faith in the comments and reviews posted on this site.

Are Savile row tailors that crazy they give him free stuff?

Nick Foulkes has done it for years but it is fair game.

WTF is Crompton wasting his hard earned graft on plus 4's from Huntsman?

He had most likely a discount.

I know...which is why he should be using it on a suit not some silly shooting manpris.

It's simultaneously hilarious and sad watching a skinny, balding, and now bearded urban professional who lives in one of the most dynamic cities in the world and writes about fashion for a living try to get in touch with his twee country roots by playing dress up as a character from the 1950s in tweed plus-4s from a house that apparently now starts at 4k pounds sterling for bespoke. And believe it or not - they're not really associated with hunting, but more with golf.

Gentlemen, they're plus two's by the way.

 

[apropos]

Thanks George.

Let me guess - the number refers to the number of inches they extend below the knee?

 

[George]

Plus Two's have a Two inch fold over below the knee. Traditionally styled Plus 2's giving deeper rise and a fuller fit. Plus Fours are longer and wider trousers with a baggy effect, They are called plus fours because to make them an extra four inches of material is needed to fold over below the knee. Breeks are shorter with no fold over at the knee.

I do enjoy his posts when he talks about things in detail like his bespoke shoes and suits step by step, but it ***** me no end that every second post of his is of old esquire illustrations that have little relevance in todays time. It almost like he can't think of anything else to post so just goes through them pic by pic.
