Depends what you want I suppose. Wouldn't touch a £1000 coat, and to be honest apart from a couple of goretex walking coats, wouldnt pay £100 for something just to knock around in. Work wear may be different depending upon requirements. 10 coats you would imagine would last longer than 1, but if its not what you want what does it matter? Pay what you want if you can afford it. Certainly wouldnt don anything expensive for the football- be too bothered about getting someone's ale/bovril/ or some such on it from the seats etc!

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted November 16, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted November 16, 2020 Slim fit Levi's for jeans. Usually pick them up cheap from Macy's every few years and was supposed to be going this year but that's fucked off now. Adidas trainers usually and I like Hugo Boss, Fred Perry and Lacoste polo's but also have plenty no name cheap polos for every day wear. I am a tight cunt obviously, I have never paid more than 100 quid on one item of clothing ever (not counting suits) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If each Micra lasted a couple of years that’d be 20 years of driving. No more than half a dozen from the Audi? A car takes me from a to b. Audi, Nissan, makes no odds to me.

Moderators Zico Posted November 16, 2020 Moderators Share Posted November 16, 2020 I own 4 pairs, all Levi's, but rarely wear them as not been out in ages Find that the boot cut ones tend to wear and rip to the rear and look tatty Might just start tucking them in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All my jeans before I wear them round to the tailor have them taken up to exactly the right length. Stops all the chewed back plus makes them look better.

jules_darby Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 (edited) I spent a lot more on clothes 15 years ago than I do now. I like the odd nice piece but the days of spending £400- £500 on a jumper are long gone In general slightly more expensive clothes do last IMO. Keep shape better etc. Label or not Some mid range are pap tho; Hugo Boss suits and smart shoes last about 3 wears so fuck them off no matter the cost.

I get all of that and if business travel was my day’s work I’d want the Audi or BMW, etc but my point stands, you can get an item for your cash or many items for your cash.

I really like it 👍🏻 Doesn’t all have to be swanky brands This is me being a swanky bugger. If you can spend a grand on yourself and your clothes, good luck to you but its way out of my wage, and indeed what I want to spend any spare cash on. I'm lucky, loads of decent shops, away from the obvious labels, that sell decent clothes in London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
