    Post The Vintage Shirt Company ?

    i was searching for kilt hose tonight and found this site as Ive never heard of them(the company) before i did a search on here to check and see if any member had purchased a item
    i cant seem to find any reference on the x marks site at all either that I'm not searching well enough
    this is the site

    http://www.vintageshirt.co.uk/list_socks.php

    i liked the look of there Shooting socks(2nd image) but it was the Shetland wool garters (3rd image)that appeal to me more

    the makers are a scott -nichol http://www.scott-nichol.com/Scott-Ni...ck-Service.pdf

    there doesn't seem to prices on the 2nd website but the choice of colours increases a fair amount

    the prices and the type of material on the first site seemed reasonable (well for the UK at least) .......so has any member purchased or heard of this these companies and if so was the items any good?

    I purchased a white bow tie from them but no socks; no complaints about either quality or service.

    thank you lads
    i may have to purchase them
    i think and with both being machine washable is a bonus for those hot days and wild nights as most wool socks i own wouldn't last a machine wash

    Barkertown Sutlers has better prices on the shirts and will tailor to personal specs.
