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.

Odd how the part one is supposed to snip off and discard is now something to be kept and incorporated prominently. It reminds me of those cloths with your name woven in as a pinstripe that someone posted about here last year.

Some tailors use the selvedge inside the pockets on trousers &c. I think I have had it done on some stuff.

I've seen it inside trouser pockets. Fairly harmless and reinforcement too. I like the coat.

Routinely done though not always as obvious.

My tailors have been doing this at least 20 years. Always somewhere discreet like inside a hip pocket.
Back with a vengeance.
