    The gunmetal linen is shown in the pictures but is not in the drop down menus. Is it not available?

    Swimming trunks

    Could you not pick something up when you arrive? My in-her-fifties wife picked up some swimwear & in Italy the last time we were there. She’s been quite pleased with it. I assume one could get something that would work for a man in his fifties without looking too hard.

    SPIER & MACKAY - Official Affiliate Thread

    The pictures on the S&M site are downright repellent. I don’t want to look at the products, because it means looking at those creepy “models”. Use real models or just take pictures of the clothes to go along with details like fabric weight.

    Wear them however you like. Even if they are black, they are still handsewn penny loafers, i.e., a casual shoe. I wear black shell LHS with everything from charcoal flannel to grey herringbone tweed to black denim.

    Fourthed. Commando is also an instant DQ for me. Not as comfortable as leather and not as durable.. The commando pairs in my hoard are getting double leather as soon as my hate wearing does them in. One is already delaminating.
