You lot forced PLG to wear them.Originally posted by tino View PostIt's actually a homage to my idol Dick Advocaat
It takes a certain type of man to carry it off with some panache

Anyway, in polite society one should not be wearing brown shoes in the city, it is the colour for the country.Comment

I'm 5' 11" and 13.5 stone, and I don't get out the door without the Mrs wanting to... never mind.Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostYes, if you’re 6 foot 4 and 12 stone those suits can look quite smart.
Notice the 2 cuts in the jacket to allow access to the pockets... (there's a name for this I forget) but it's important.

TBH the suit looks cheap, I have tried to tell you that with insinuation. The rule is never brown in the town and if you want to go for that then go for it.Comment
