10 years ago i wore Ralph Lauren, firetrap, sonnetti, gabichi etc etc, now i pay a mortgage, try and heat the house and put food on the table and buy clothes from tesco, asda, primark or wherever else i can afford.
I still have a few top quality threads for a decent night out and a very god quality suit for more fromal occassions and working in court (about once or twice a month), but the choice of spending a fortnights beer and food money on a shirt and eating beans on toast or wearing cheap clothes and enjoying a few beers and a steak on a saturday night, some might say i am sad, but a 12oz sirloin and a dozen tennants or Magners wins every time.
