I've worn them now for about 12 hours and not much more than a slight hint of breaking in discomfort. They aren't easy to break in 'plastic leather' shoes though. I can tell by the feel, the smell and the look of them that they are as well made as twice the price shoes I've bought. 🤔
It's bigger than everyone's combined - it's a whole flat.
It is! My ex bedroom has developed into a walk in wardrobe. Not through choice, more it just slowly happened.It's bigger than everyone's combined - it's a whole flat.
Bargain of the year so far? I picked this Schoffel fleece up in the Salvation Army charity shop in Clitheroe this aft' for a mere £2.50!

It's in navy, though my camera makes it look slightly charcoal i'd say.🤔 I would've preferred burgundy, but beggars can't be choosers as they say and at least it's not boring black!!🧐

It'd only just arrived an hour before I saw it. It fits perfectly and as far as i can see is in almost new condition! Funnily enough I was toying with the idea of buying a Schoffel fleece from this place up the road from the charity shop. https://vareys.co.uk/schoffel-men-gilets-and-fleeces.
This is the one i bought, which is on sale here for nearly 200 quid! https://www.schoffelcountry.com/ite...0hwYB1ZT93YGEgyvYmaLcQl_6xBwVL0RoCG3gQAvD_BwE
The only downside was that I left my Tootal paisley scarf in the charity shop when trying the fleece on, but I've just phoned the manager to tell her to look out for it before someone buys it and she said she's in first thing in the morning, so she'll put it to one side for me.
It's quite slim fitting, not all baggy and 'casual'. It won't look out of place with a pale blue or tattersall shirt, worn with either a tweed or tartan tie (polka dot cravat as well maybe). Cords and chinos, with brogues even the slightly casual oxfords I have will look ok with it. All in my opinion of course.
