Fashion

What size do you wear? I have a warm, grey Folk shirt that I bought (secondhand) and have never worn because I decided it's not really my thing. I'd let it go for cheap. If you're a small/smaller medium and it sounds appealing I can dig it out and get some photos.

Ta for the offer I'm a large / XL though. Might head to TK and have a dig tomorrow 👍

What's BR??

Buzz Rickson’s

Ah yeah 👍 ta

TK Maxx website is full of Folk stuff including loads of over shirts.

So much stuff on there that it seems a bit curious.

That looks a bit dodgy. Don't Folk do sizing in 1, 2, 3 etc?
And the fabric looks well off on those jackets:
Shell: 100% Polyester
Lining: 85% Polyester, 15% Cotton

I'm not familiar with them, but can TKMaxx do fakes?

Not fakes. But manufactures often do specific straight to tkmaxx lines to provide low end distro without devaluing the core brand.

Which jacket are you talking about?

I've bought a few folk items from TK Maxx and they come with the normal sizing (1,2,3 etc) and packaging, seems the same quality as everything I've bought direct from them tbh

This one, but a few of them are similar fabric composition:

Yeah. That seems unlikely. Shit listing maybe?

I'd be sorely tempted by this one if it was definitely a real Folk:
https://www.tkmaxx.com/uk/en/men/edits/mens-layering/navy-quilted-overshirt/p/47569686

Only £40! But the spec and photos make me think it's going to feel cheap and polyester-ey

Yeah, same in store, number sizing on garments but they still go onto S M L hangars etc. Same with all euro sized stuff.

ETA: (Which has to be better than places where you have to set every possibility of size in order to filter by appropriate)

As @hugo7 mentioned, TK do production runs with certain brands and the quality isn’t always up there. Go in with an open mind and judge the garment by its merits, not the label and you’ll be fine.

I still love digging in the rails of a TK, found some Warehouse & Co loopwheel sweatshirts not long ago…

I've got this one to collect

Very much suspect I won't keep it due to not having tried it on or seen it in the flesh but click and collect is free if you buy a few things and returns are free so thought I may as well.

I've got some Dickies trousers that have started to come a bit loose at the seam in the arse region. Is that something the dry cleaner round the corner from me can sort out or is it worth venturing further afield?
