I would call those socks burgandy. Really like Manton's tie. I'm also growing to detest long wings, sorry lufty. Between those, the ones Manton wears and Foo, I'm about to send my own pair of Florsheims to the Salvation Army. I do like the clunky norwegers and PTBs, but long wings look to me like something that shouldn't be worn without a doctor's prescription.

I do not understand how you could have ragged on my pink and gray socks.
The difference between your socks and his is as great as that between Lapo and his grandfather. Manton's color balance is almost always blown out and faded, but I think his socks must be burgandy with navy dots. Nothing wild.

I like that combo, Mr. Pink. Is the shirt fabric end-on-end?
Not sure if talking about grammar is conservative business dress -- hope Manton does not medival on me.

There is no such thing as 'burgandy' ... it is burgundy. I hope you don't take my correction the wrong way, it just makes me
My english and grammar are not perfect (it is not my mother tongue), but I do try and avoid these simple mistakes.

Good looking coat. Is all this faux threading necessary...its sort of obnoxious.Originally Posted by whnay.
- the white stitching? Basting? Or the hand finishing? Not so obvious IRL, only obvious with HD or quality pics. If shot with a basic P&S none of this would be picked up.
