Favourite clothing

[mel b 3,920]

I spend the majority of my life dressed like a tramp. I'm either wearing my binman uniform,  or , camo jogging bottoms , and a camo t-shirt. If I need to look respectable , I'll wear moleskin trousers , and a countryman shirt . I wear a suit for weddings and funerals.  It's the same suit , but I wear a black tie for funerals , and a coloured tie for weddings.  I live in boots , but have one pair of black shoes , that match my black suit.

Thinking about it , I'm a bit of a scruffy c**t really .

The odd time i go out for a family meal its usually a pair of moleskin jeans and a checked shirt weekly shop just a pair of Levi or wrangler jeans and a decent top and trainer's. Rest of the time it's work clothes or mooching about clobber which i have more of than going out clothes and nearly always wear a cap of some description mainly baseball type caps.

I come to the. Conclusion we are all scruffy c**ts most the time , 

If lads are looking for hoodies etc for work ,hunting then I really do recommend carharrt,yes they cost bit more but the mid weight stuff excited and will outlast anything else ,the duck jackets are heavy but excellent.

If any one is size 32 or they got a son who's that size pm me as I've got brand new pair of moleskins, tried them on once .

Not asking anything for them

A lot of dog lads in the 70s and 80s used to wear these type of hats don't think they would be seen dead in one these days. Lol

I used to wear that type of hat for years as I can never remember dog lads wearing baseball type caps and the first one I saw was on a coursing vid worn by Clive Amos when he was matching the Mellishes in the late 80s.

Ascot.

I just went into a workwear store,loads of Carhartt,tried a jacket on but a little stiff.

I've got that bottom jacket ,they stiff at first but once worn in they great ,the Bartlett jacket is good bit of kit ,they made big with plenty room, the yanks and Canadians love this kit because it lasts and does the job.

 I've got some carharrt wip stuff but that's more casual clothing and expensive

I see a video with Phil Lloyd ferreting and his mate had one on ,people still wear them on shoots especially grouse.
