Don't have a POW suit, but I put on a Huntington sports jacket with a very small dogtooth pattern and a red windowpane overcheck, the closest I got to a POW...
Great suits, Moose and Brownshoe!
I'm not sure where they originally came from - An aunt maybe?
We were always swapping our clothes as a family for some reason. A lot of my old English stuff went to my cousin Alistair when I defected to Ivy: Simpsons, Austin Reed, names like that.
Loden Shaggy Dog over a Blue Brooks BD. Kind of toffee coloured flatfront Cords. Grey socks. Finsbury Scotchgrains.

You have my great respect for doing this, Conor.
Seriously.
Very few have ever left their online comfort zones in the way you've just done. It takes balls to go where there are no vested interests & Mods to protect you.
