The men's dress style thread..

John Smedley are legit. They've got a factory shop near Matlock Bath.

I posted the link of those cardigans to a friend. He replied that he's been on a tour of the mill in Cromford Derbyshire, which was opened in 1784.

I'm pretty sure people should be banned from this thread for advocating cardigans....

Nowhere in the title does it say it has to be a good style.

I've got a couple of their pullovers, they're good quality. Not cheap but you're paying to support UK manufacturing.

I think closed it after Covid. There is mens tailors called Rhodes Wood in Harrogate who’s owner has a pretty good pedigree in the clothing industry. He did a review of the clothes shops in Harrogate when Cordings was open and his review of Cordings was low to middling.
If you ever win the lottery Accy take a trip to Rhodes Wood you would think you’d gone to heaven.

I got a few things from Rhodes Wood which I realised recently were mostly bought a long (long) time ago when he'd just opened. They are, however, fabulous quality and still look great. I must go back but try to resist blowing the budget.

I didn't mind the Cording's branch in Harrogate, which was itself far better than the concession they previously had in Orvis. The ability to try things on without having to make a trip to London or playing mail order returns roulette was very useful.

Starsky cardigan!

A fleece jacket is pretty much the same as
a cardi really. Whilst I don't have an actual cardigan it is a perfectly sensible garment. I only have one proper knitted
jumper left which my mum made me over 40 years back

I remember zip up cardigans being called 'jerkins' around here.🤔
