No "Maybe" there ... you are still pursued by the United-Against-Granny-Knot cabal for violating the shoelace code against unsuspecting shoes.

Flannel trou are amazing.

Paul Stuart trou?


The ones that I have on today are branded/sold by Paul Stuart, but judging by the fittings and the origin tag, I think that they were made in the same Portuguese factory that makes many Incotex pants. Not sure if Incotex is common in the UK.

Incotex? Sounds like a kind of fireproof plastic!

Their parent company has even worse name...Slowear. Another Slowear brand goes by the interesting name of Glanshirt.

You do look much slimmer than in many of your other suits. One of the best I have seen on you.

Also the slant pockets. And the ticket. And the super closed quarters. Shape of the lapel seems off too.

Does the tie have any color or is it a black/white check?
