This morning saw the arrival of Philip, an agent we have dealt with for a number of years now since we opened an account with Heinricks (Club of Comfort) trousers via the now defunct Sigi Man Agencies of Manchester.
Over the years, Philip has shown us many collections including trousers, shirts, knitwear, suits & jackets and coats. Today he presented his Spring Summer 2009 ranges for:
- Club of Comfort (Trousers)
- Redford (Shirts)
- College (Knitwear)
As well as 2 other ranges which we chose not to buy (only because we have bought elsewhere), today really was a busy buying day and we saw some quality garments.
Club of Comfort trousers have always provided superb quality trousers made from the finest fabrics, their 2009 season was no different, we bought a stunning range of Pima Cotton trousers. These are without doubt, some of the lightest weight cotton trousers we have ever bought and should prove very popular with anyone looking for lightweight trousers for traveling.
Spring Summer 2009 will see a great mixture of checks and stripes from Redford shirts (part of the Seidensticker group), they produce some terrific value for money shirts with 100% cotton shirts starting from as little as £24.95.
For anyone who likes their knitwear to have bold patterns, then College Knitwear is a range to look at, it combines bright colours with unusual patterns and ultra light cottons for comfort. With patterned knitwear being harder and harder to find these days, College knitwear makes a refreshing change.
So thanks Philip for showing us such a well balanced and quality collection, I look forwards to seeing it on our shelves next February and March.
