Was this cruel of me?
I was out walking the dog this morning
However, as it wasn't cold enough for the 'winter walking coat'*, I had a fleece pullover on, with this old jacket that my wife wore, when she used to ride to the office (building now sold/she's retired)
A young lass, maybe 25-ish(?). noticed the name on it
I told her, with all seriousness, that it was a sample from that (seemingly ubiquitous) 'White Fox' company, with the aim of entering another market, ie; for runners/cyclists/horse-riders/walkers
She pointed out the lack of a logo on the rear, as most of the 'W F' clothing seems to have, I once again reiterated that it was a sample, to test the wear resistance/sizing/longetivity of the fabric
She walked away, deep in thought, scrolling on her phone, perhaps wanting to be one of the first to own such items...........
'Back in the day' (mid 2019)

- Mine's 'Orange/black'
- Sometimes, if I go down into the woods, there's clay pigeon shooting, & I pass close by the perimeter, so don't want anyone whose aim isn't that good firing as I'm passing by
