Dickies chinos

Too bad about John Simons place.
Aye.
What's the cut on those Dickies like, btw?
Old Skool in polycotton, like the Carhartt Chino, but a better and a cheaper cut than the over hyped Carhartt. A better, more khaki, colour than the Carhartt too.
Superdry's cinch-back chinos are some of the worst currently out there even tho they are 100% cotton.

Thanks.
Interstate in Covent Garden carry them too along with Dickies shorts & Carhartt items which even the Neal Street Carhartt shop doesn't have.

I wouldn't know about that. To be honest I've only ever seen that term on the internet.
Didn't you use to work in J. Simons?
Do you know the guys in T. Burrows who use to be at The Village Gate in the 70s?
We chat a bit, but nothing more. I don't visit much.
Feel free to PM if you want to banter -

Now, I've never had a bd+tab collar shirt... Nice that you're back!
My bad, I call dress shirts - button downs. There are no buttons on the collar. It is a normal tab collar shirt, unlined.
