Off Topic Any clobber/brand name freaks?

I need to buy a suit in the next few weeks actually.

No ****ing clue where to start. I'd love a trilby but got too big a head to pull them off sadly.

 

Don't get a brown one apparently.

Everyone's wearing them!

You don't wanna be a slave to fashion!

 

Nah grey is more my style tbh.

Dunnno if 300 odd quid is realistic to get something decent though.

 

You'll get a decent one from House of Fraser. Don't need to spend a fortune on labels for a good suit mate.

 

I'm not fussed on labels/brands mate just want something that looks fresh. About time I owned a decent suit that will last a long time too.

 

Go to Debenhams they've got quite a selection at the minute for decent money, I'm normally a suit snob but I don't mind a bargain so long as the fit is good and it doesn't feel like a bag4life.

A good tailor will take care of the snags.

 

Sound advice cheers Tel, will have a look, all about the fit for me too.

 

Tbf, wearing conspicuous labels can only be described as mug behaviour - you are paying to advertise somebody else's product. Why would you do that?

 

Same reason people drive nice cars.

Because they can.

No difference whatsoever.

 

So you'd buy a VW over a Skoda, for example, even if it was basically the same vehicle out of the same factory, but 25% more expensive because of the badge?

 

It’s not always a famous label.

I’ve got quite a bit of Armani stuff, jackets, jeans, etc. But my favourite suits are by Pal Zileri, Canali, etc. Names that many people have never heard of. Qualty is top notch

 

I would buy a VW over a Skoda, yes.

I wouldn't buy a VW though.

It's one of those things we all have got, personal preference. Thank a **** we've all got that (freedom of) choice, eh?

Not a ****ing clue why anyone has an
issue with a that.

 

It's all the same anyway, you should just buy from Primark.

 

That Skoda is worth less than the VW the minute you drive both cars off the forecourt.

 

Tried that.....it’s crap!...

 

I don't have an issue with that.


My personal choice is to wear cxlothes with labels on the inside. Your choice is your choice. But chavvy by the sounds, but so what? I'm a bit of a scruff myself.

 

I would imagine so, since it cost less in the first place.

 

I'd rather get harpooned through the face than do a trip to Primark.

Primark in Mcr is basically my idea of hell.

 

Equally priced, before the sale I should have said. Obviously a higher spec Skoda. Busted investment.

Would you buy a Casio watch because it tells time rather than a Hublot? Folk who work hard often want the rewards that hard work brings.

 

Who said anything about Primark? Only your fellow Manc.
