Are Red Wings boots better quality than Grenson? Or is their hard wearing reputation just a bit of a publicity thing?
Original post by Miscer-22
Anyone know where I can get black cuffed jeans for less than 25 pounds?



Try the year 2008, the last time they were cool.



Actaully they were never cool, only fashionable.

Yes they are, Grenson is a fashion brand. Arguably, Red Wings is too, but less so.

That maybe the reason why I can't find them XD. Thanks for the heads up, I will avoid them.
Just had a look at Jigsaw menswear, made a few prospective online purchases.

Not gonna post what I've copped recently bc it would basically just be me copying the contents of Reiss.com into a post tbh. I did get some of Topman's plain shorts for summer, but I'm relieved af that winter is coming so I can finally wear the other 90% of my wardrobe.
I'm counting down the days until the 4th, Whistles menswear goes on sale! :drool:

Just ordered these Grenson's. Looks like my last purchase for a while. Better be worth it.

Do tell us how they are. I'm still finding it hard actually finalising the purchase of mine, £215 is a lot of money

Was on the lookout for a classic parka in Khaki with fur hood when I stumbled across this - not what I was after, but caught my eye. What do you think?

I think they're made in England. I'd double check with Grenson though.

IIRC, their G Lab collection is made in India.

I quite like it, but it is fashion forward and certainly isn't a classic piece.

Agreed, it isn't the classic I was looking for, but I quite like it too. :smile:

Will no doubt still look for what I was after in the first place, but for £40 in the sale I'm highly tempted!

If you have the money, why not?

I'd make sure it fits in with your overall aesthetic though.

I was very hesitant because of the price, I checked on eBay for around 2 weeks but nothing popped up. I should get them by Friday and will let you know.

I cancelled my order and bought from Asos instead. £198 with discount.

Slightly different?

Is it acceptable for a male to wear v neck t shirts with chinos brown shoes and a leather satchel? Or is the satchel look something you need to wear a jumper with

Yes, it's acceptable.

Thankyou so much !! It's just too hot for a jumper atm and I wasn't sure because my leather satchel looks reasonably smart . Thanks
