    Doesn't the rise vary depending on size? It certainly does with jeans. Anyway, I'd be curious about the measurements when you get them.

    I don't understand why these companies never make them in grey or light grey... I have a 90s pair of light grey Levi's Sta Prest, and they combine really well with almost all other colours. The Retroseventy trousers still seem to be available in all sizes here...

    Hello @Inkss - what else can you tell us about those Retroseventy trousers? Do you have to size up? I've relocated to a country that's quite hot for several months a year, and I wouldn't mind a few more pairs of trousers that aren't jeans but also not camo shorts...

    The pic in the middle isn't originals, I seem to remember they're Dutch skins from the 80s. The one on the bottom looks more like US army jump boots or something? And I've got to admit that Creedence Clearwater were a good band.

    "Communism killed over 100 million"? Not enough! I'm joking, of course. But it's a fairly ludicrous website, especially its McCarthyist calls for vigilance towards younger people who are fed up with capitalism, and especially in how it cites 'free enterprise' as a kind of human right. If we...

    Jump the Gun Harringtons have a rounder, more relaxed overall shape, so the raglan sleeves work well as they smooth out your shoulders. Set in sleeves work well with the more rectangular/rigid Merc Harrington shape. I like both.

    Not impossible, but the standard Merc Harrington has no raglan - I have an off-white one and a black one. See also the one he linked.

    The Ben Nevis 'Combat' jackets are much wider and I think a bit shorter than the other two. They have a long-standing reputation as basic but durable skinhead Harringtons. Probably nice if you're of a stronger build, but not if you're slim because you'll drown in them. Imo Jump the Gun have the...

    May I ask where your UK flu figure is from? I'm on your side of the debate regarding Covid-19, as it were, but I've seen significantly higher flu death rate estimates.

    So tell me @Inkss, since you're a bit of an expert, what do I need to mind (in terms of quality, make, etc) when choosing an N2B? And which ones should I avoid? I know nothing about them, but I've grown increasingly fond of them when visiting southern Europe lately (they're quite common in the...

    You wouldn't guess, but John Cooper Clarke's influences are "people like Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis – that kind of American, smart, preppy look. Ivy League suits and three button coats – things that you might buy at John Simons". John Cooper Clarke: 'I've dressed the same way since 1965'
