(hasn't got any further than that, yet.) Can't report for longevity or washability yet, but things are looking hopeful. You can order it from www.marksandspencer.com (click on quickorder and enter the code T14 0230)
    It's 65% cotton, 23% polyester, 7% polyamide, 6% lycra.

    The other two I have (but not worn yet) are M&S Authentic Collections label, style number T14 0114. (same website: there's an image this time.) Fabric is 47% cotton, 47% modal, 6% lycra. I think they are sold as underwear (vests) but don't tell anyone.

    That's OK. Just count yourself struck off my Christmas card list. Especially if you end up wearing it to Nailsea.

    (that's if I get there. I've come down with ElaineB's cold. Despite not having seen her for a month at least).

    Won't be wearing it at Nailsea - Going for the Johnny Cash Man In Black look mind you I think that might only last for a short while as the whole long sleeves, waistcoat and hat is likely to lead to a bit of overheating. So I'll probably slip into something hawaiian later.

    Blimey - spitting image of how I'll look apart from the fact that he's tall, dark haired, slim and handsome & he's wearing a white shirt. I definitely won't have my weapon out.

    Yes we have met briefly at Nigel & Nina's workshop (I'm saving the yellow for a suitable themed dance - beach would be good so that everyone else has sunglasses)

    Re: Men In Black

    Resurrecting this thread (due to the demands of thousands of requests to Know More About Black T-shirts), I can now endorse ESG's M&S recommendation - the "Autograph" range of, err, vest-y black Tshirts, are superb.

    Great material, lovely fabric, I'll be road-testing them over the next few weeks.

    However: {RANT}
    Why oh why oh why don't they put these T-shirts in the T-shirts section? I know they may be called vests, but it looks and feels like a flippin' T-shirt to me, it's what I'm looking for in a T-shirt, how is it I had to stumble across them by chance? No wonder M&S is going to the dogs - that's £50 of my cash they could have had 6 months ago, if they'd only put the T-shirts all together.
    {/RANT}

    Glad that's off my chest...

    Re: Men In Black

    Prompted by this thread and to avoid being an “MIB clone”, I decided to invest in some bright red criminal damage pants

    Only to discover at Big Bang I was a “bright red criminal damage pants clone” at least 3 of us had I identical outfits

    So if you want to look different, don’t buy your clothes from a dance shop

    I know. I kept catching sight of the trousers & thinking it was you! I was only right later on the night!

    Now, you see why going MIB is the only way...

    I noticed at LEAST three identical and you must have been one of them? (I'd have said hello, if i'd realised ) + another 2 in plain red!

    Don't worry, I'm in no place to comment I was a 'WIB' as usual!
