    Do you fashionistas see Lyle & Scott as a classy label , or as something Anto would save his dole money and treat himself to a Lyle & Scott jumper?

    I think it's nice, but not when paired with Diesel/Crosshatch/Superdry style jeans. That's just personal though, I prefer plainer jeans on a guy, Levi's, Nudie, Cheap Monday. I have seen if being worn by all manner of men, I wouldn't associate it with a particular group.

    Over the last few years its been mainly associated with the Chino brigade, the lads who want something that isn’t Topman/River Island have been going for Allsaints/Lyle & Scott among others. It's more likely to be seen on TV presenters and Hairdressers then ''fashionistas'' IMO.

    You should try 'Merc' or 'Barracutta'. Also 'Pretty Green' is having an online sale aswell, some top quality stuff there :)

    I decided Lyle & Scott isn't my cup of tea.

    I got one of these in the end.

    I think this is a nice brand, I see it in the likes of McGuirks for Golders so wouldnt think of it as too shabby

    Thats one of the things that put me off it , the fact that it is originally for golfers .

    I like the one you went with, very original imo. Must admit that I love my L&S jumpers though. I wear them for work usually so I'm always wary of wearing them casually 'cos I don't want to wash them out.
