I knew exactly the prob from the symptoms you described. The reason is because when I was living at home with parents back in the 60s I bought my first scoot, twas a…"

Chadders replied to Kris's discussion 'Suits'"Karl that does seem to flare a bit at the bottom.
Could get something bespoke done by some of the mentioned (cheaper) tailors for a similar price depending on material?
That way get rid of the flare and chose a narrower lapel etc?"
Chadders replied to Kris's discussion 'Suits'"Anyone ever used http://www.kingandallen.co.uk/ ??

We have a lot of Emo, Goths and Punk kids who appreciate that their teachers have style. Lots of them are in bands and get to wear their gear on none uniform days. We all push the uniform issue. I'm a tech teacher and I do woodwork in my tie, so it won't harm them to wear theirs to write in. Keep up the good work mate it can't be easy. By the way sidies are the 'in' thing since Wiggo.
