Those colours look fabulous.

I'm glad you spent hours trawling and managed to find that real handloomed bleeding madras direct from source. These wouldn't be nearly as pretty if you had used some approximation of the cloth.

Good luck with it mate and I look forward to sporting one this Summer.

That looks about right to me.

Look great with a green ocbd

Nice one mate, looks good. I'll definitely buy one!

Bop, this place just gets better and better ,well done and i will definatley be interested.

Tie in the picture looks spank mate.

I used to joke with Claudio that the reason it was called, Bleeding Madras, is because it's bleedin' impossible to find. I was originally meant to do pocket squares, but it evolved into this over the last year, after i managed to get a good tie maker contact through work, and cloth source.

Congratulations Bop, and also to 12BB for the shirts (and to Chens and Mr Press for the jackets, plus anyone else who's producing clothing).

As indeed I do myself. Honoured by the name check & very happy to promote Tugboat here. It's all happening !

I'm interested in Chen's jacket project. If all the details are there then I would definitely be interested. I missed out on the JS brown herringbone jacket, the one that was either a suit or sold as separates. I buy vintage because I cant get what I want new, but I much prefer to buy new.
