Post by matthew68 »

Any one else having trouble wearing the long trousers? I just started wearing them last week and they are really uncomfortable,why aren’t they 100 % cotton like the shirt,the material is so itchy,is there an alternative as I can’t wear shorts all year as knees start hurting when cold,does anyone else have same problem? And if so can you buy your own cotton trousers?

Have your butler wash them a few times that seems to do the trick, softens them up no end.

They appear to be slightly different.
I can go commando with the shorts but not the trousers.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
