I'm thinking about buying this.

I'm after an old fashioned cricket jumper or tennis jumper,without logos,sponsors names etc. I thought i'd found one in this,

but i've just emailed them to be told it's now discontinued.

I'm not too sure about the Fred Perry one,as it might be 'too young' for me.🤔
I've bought from the above company before. They are very good with returns,so there wouldn't be a problem if it didn't fit or look right.

What do you reckon? 🤔

Play cricket @Accy cyclist ? If not, it'd look out of place imo.

Maybe the Peter Christian one as it is a cricket jumper,but i'd say the Fred Perry one is more fashion than cricket.🤔

Try a proper sports shop that sells cricket kit?
Or?

I want one without the logos,sponsors names etc. Preferably wool or cotton,not polyester,viscose etc. It has to look 'old fashioned',not modern.

The proper sports shop of which @vickster speaks may supply local schools, colleges, and teams.

Thus they are likely to have plain jumpers, or at least more likely than the chav leisure wear chainstores.

@Accy cyclist if your after a part in a remake of Brideshead Revised I reckon you're a dead cert to play Sebastian Flyte.

Edit: assuming we suspend disbelief on the age difference that is. 😄

I saw that one last night. There isn't a description of the fit and length etc. I'm thinking it may be too wide in the body and too short in the sleeve length. 🤔 Their returns policy is a bit iffy as well.

Get someone to knit you one.

Actually,that's not a bad idea! It'd have to be someone local so they could take my measurements. Also maybe best to have one made on a knitting machine,as one done soley by hand might end up looking like a granny knitted Christmas jumper!🧐

No. It's too cold for Pimm's and lemon on ice! It's more like mulled wine weather.🍷

It's a brilliant idea, even if I say so myself.
