    i have a few pieces (sweaters and jackets) and I can honestly say they are very well made. Plus because they are pricey you tend to look after them.

    Wow
    Never had you down as a Stone Island aficionado Andy.
    Next Mick P will be on about his Paul & Shark clobber and Y3 Trainers.

    I’ve also got a polo and few accessories. The quality of the polo doesn’t match the price point so I tend to stay away from that stuff. I also find a lot of their cloths outside of outer wear is quite boring. And why on earth would you wear a formal shirt with a branded patch on the arm.

    Hope you’re well Jim.

    I also have a green Woolrich artic parka. If I’m lucky I get to wear it once or twice a year at best.

    I’m not aware of any brand association

    I have Paul & Shark as well. I particularly like their Bretagne sweaters. Again excellent quality.

    As a 50 year old, I have followed the same path and transitioned to Belstaff, Woolrich and interestingly Holubar. The last brand I’ve really enjoyed and if you wait for their sales post season, attract a discount of up to 65% making them a complete bargain without the connotation of Moncler et al. Belstaff private sale is currently on at 30-40% discount as it 4 for All Mankind which have become my go to Jean.

    . Sorry to disappoint, whilst sitting here wearing True Religion jeans and an old Armani top. I like nice clothes.
