Worthy of Your Consideration: Brands
The Ivy Look features a small section of recommended makers/brands (which I'll post up some time over the weekend), and mentions some other brands (which I'll also post up).
I'd like to tentatively suggest a couple of additions.
Nothing groundbreaking about them, and they've been discussed recently.
www.albamclothing.co.uk
www.sunspel.com
http://www.shetlandknitwear.com/Home.aspx
(ok, so that's 3 
)
Please feel free to add your own favourites/recommendations, well known and popular, or otherwise.
Robbo what a fucking wanker you are.

I sent Shetland knitwear an email a while back to no reply. I figure it is best just sending another email - has anyone had similar? How are the shetlands? Look good - although I asked whether they could have the shoulder shortened a bit as it would be too wide.

^ That shoulder is part of the Kellister model shown, the set-in sleeve lines up with the body width causing the shoulder to drop when worn. If you don't want that, look for their saddle shouldered Everest instead.

The obvious British selection
Clark's Originals - http://www.clarks.co.uk/find/Brand-is-originals/Department-is-men.
Sanders for bucks and Playboys - http://www.sanders-uk.com/index.php
Barbour - http://www.barbour.com/. Sadly, there are no more dress gordon lined jackets left.
Baracuta - http://www.baracuta-g9.com/.
John Smedley - http://www.johnsmedley.com/. If they are not Ivy, they should be.
Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.

Re: Worthy of Your Consideration: Brands
Thanks Trojan
I might try again as they look pretty decent - there's a nice grey wool that looks good.
