Title: Retro Whites
Post by: The Palmist on June 03, 2013, 06:48:54 PM

Any ideas where I can get some old school style whites? Stiff collar is a must.

Is there a good compromise available i.e. old school styling but modern advanced material.

I do dive a lot while fielding and batting so easy clean/iron will be a bonus.

Something like this...

They have them in their clearance at the minute, they seem to be rather reasonable if I may say so...

I saw that Craig but when I try to buy it doesn't go anywhere, page doesn't exist or something. Looks fab in the pictures.

Yeah that's why I thought the Clarence ones may be good.
Send them an email and they're very good at sending pics, it says their marked but it's probably nothing. :)

Absolutely love the trousers, great fit and they are kind of bell bottoms [if anyone remembers that style] Shirt is nice too just a bit loose fitting which makes sense. Not sure how comfy they are going to be in field but these are great to wear to a match and hang about in pub after wards. Will go great with my flat cap. Marks are not that bad really, nothing on trousers just tiny bit on shirt.
