This thread was speaking to the "construction" of a garment, not the style.

OK, I'll make sure to stay on topic in the future.

About Quality.



Follow my posts back for a page or so.

You needn't worry about insulting me for wearing Oxxford, I was simply standing up for the quality of the garment , not the style. It was said that Oxxford was less than the best and that is not true.

I would place Oxxford in the middle of the high end of the scale.

Well, I couldn't get the confidence intervals in there on short notice.

Not in a couple of years and only been there once. But I liked it.
