Saw a dapper gent on the train just now, immaculately turned out in crisp navy wool suit, white shirt, windsor knotted tie, pocket square, all topped of with

a floppy sun hat much in the style of a stoned Mancunian in the park circa 1996

don't see many suits these days.

Crisp wool

Nice

30 degrees today¹, he is going to sweat through that thing in no time. Linen sun, linen.

Madness. I only ever wear a woolen suit to funerals nowadays.

Linen is so comfy.

I only wear a suit when I'm in court

And I haven't been charged with anything for at least a decade

He should be qualifying soon.

So he's done better than you then

Fair play to the lad

He'll buy an imaginary EV next

wool is what suits should be made of

made of coarse open weave wool

The Chap

Saw a chap, probably not yet out of his 20s in the full early period Oppenheimer 3 piece tweed get up in the City a few weeks back. Was hoping there might be a broader suit come back but sadly not.

White shirts work but blue is better.

There’s a place for a pale steely blue shirt, but no bluer.

I’d like a tweed suit for winter.

You put that Windsor knot reference in to get a rise out of someone didn't you you scamp.

windsor is without doubt the optimal knot

Na not falling for it m7.

Our CEO sets the tone never wearing a suit, except when in Parliament or Congress. So nobody else does either. Thank fvck. Suits and ties can get to fvck.
