- SPRING 2014 -
JUST AN
OLD FASHIONED GUY
We have lots of NEW products on offer for Spring, here are some of our favourites...
How things change… When Grandad was a boy nearly everything was delivered to your door, there was a “monger” for just about anything; fishmonger, costermonger, cheesemonger even the ironmonger knocked on your door to sell you some garden shears or sharp knives, but Grandad still had to go to town for his clothing. Sadly nowadays the gentlemen’s tailors and outfitters have all but disappeared from our high streets but fear not, help is at hand. Peter Christian, the tip-top “trousermonger” will deliver to your door and what a pain free service it is too, Grandad would be pleased! You can sit back in your favourite armchair with faithful Fido by your side and browse through our comprehensive catalogue to select your new Spring outfits, confident in the cut and the quality of your chosen mufti.
