Tim.

They are obviously different in appearance from any department store polyester pants.

Of course they are. I'm just not seeing it.

If you can't see the difference between honing poly-wool and department store polyester in body, in how they hang and keep a sharp crease and their shape, and the difference in color from department store polyester, then, well...that might explain that God-awful shirt from Canada you wear:

Merry Christmas to you too. I guess I haven't watched enough Queer Eye for the Straight Guy to give a darn one way or another what you think of the uniforms I choose to wear.

Yep, that shirt looks almost as "God-awful" as the jackets worn by the Div-1 NCAA guys from the Big East.

1. Let's see, the jacket is a.....oh, yeah...a jacket.

2. They really are not that similar. The jacket has color trim on the shoulders, while...

3. The "shirt" has color trim on the shoulders, the neck, the sleeves, which would be okay, if you're into gaudy or think more the trim conveys more authority and credibility, or you work as a doorman in Berlin.

Fashion is in the eye of the beholder, I suppose. I guess I never thought about it giving me more credibility, but if it works, well, who am I to not take advantage.

So then, do you make you partners buy that shirt, do you work with a uniform different than your partners or do you work a lot of one man games?

I have other navy shirts along with most other colors that were'nt designed by Scott that I carry with me. Scott donated 4 extra shirts to me and I sold an additional 16 to guys I work with. I wouldn't say that I made anyone buy anything. Overall the response has been very positive on the shirts. I understand that you don't care for them, Garth. You made that abundantly clear over a year ago when they were first introduced. That doesn't necessarily make them the eye sore you seem to think they are. And no, I don't work any games solo unless a partner doesn't show and I'm left with no alternative.

Fascinating discussion.

Sorry it doesn't meet your standards, Dave. Tell you what, if it will make you feel better, I'll just move on.

It was good knowing you.

Rich, I am not sure there were any "best" parts . . .

And no one even mentioned PLEATS.
