to you perhaps

but to those with taste it matters a lot.
clothing at the very least should be made of natural materials; wool, cotton, linen, cashmere, silk, apart from perhaps vibram or veldschoen soles for brogues.

I find the idea of man made fibres demeaning, and the notion of wearing sports equipment in the street bizarre. Why would grown ups want to do that? Not that I question their entitlement.


Man made fibres? Like cotton, wool, leather?

mate I'm on a wind up.

If you want snobbery though, then chdeck out the posts mockinhg the guys who wear full replica kit to games.

I couldn't give a frig about what people wear to games and certainly wouldn't judge people on what they wear.

It's not about wearing them to games, its wearing them in the street and day to day, and it's a bit of fun that's gone way over your head for some reason.

leather isn't a fibre but hides are natural
wool cotton and linen(flax) are natural fibres: it's the thread that's spun from them that is man made.

As in most things, context is all.

Watching a guy walk down the gang plank from the ferry in Tobermory in the drizzle in full leeds kit including blades was a truly once in a lifetime experience!

Later today, I will be wearing a suit. I'll be going to a Hindu engagement party for my neighbour's daughter. 10am to 4.00 pm at XXXX Civic Hall.

The last time I wore said suit was as a guest of another neighbour during a festival at a Sikh temple ... everyone else there was in jeans and trainers!!

I think another fashion faux pas may be looming.

Invited to a wedding reception where we turned up in best bib and tucker and everyone else was in T shirts and baseball caps. :(

No, everything was in order; everyone suited and booted.

I think that Indian Hindu women are the best looking race on the planet, and very stylish. God knows how many thousands of pounds worth of sari was on display. I don't know why more western women don't wear a sari as an evening dress.

I'd agree with that too.

I was sent an amusing stand-up clip from India years ago, basically this bloke doing a joke saying Indian women are the most beautiful in the world, and Indian men are some of the ugliest trolls on the face of the planet!
