Ex German Army is 1st choice

East or West? Some of the DDR stuff used to be good but will probably be collectors items now.

Guernsey Woollens | Guernsey Jumpers, Sweaters & Knitwear

Guernsey Woollens Ltd. manufactures and sells authentic Guernsey Jumpers from right here in the Channel Islands using a careful blend of traditional methods.

If you want the proper Guernsey sweater, not cheap ,but warm and last forever.
The traditional navy one is the most popular worn by locals for work.

Them, or Le Tricoteur. Also worth looking at the Alderney ones, perhaps?

They went to Skipton last Monday - they were booked in for the week before but the French guys 'pulling up the drawbridge' meant they had to stay another week

Did they sell them in cattle pens?

see some folk at the local collective sale and its obvious that they have not washed or put on a clean set of cloths for days and its not a one off , if you dont take some pride in your appearance are you going to take any pride in your work.

Know what you mean riggers and hi viz brigade. I’ve a mate when at work he looks like a tramp but his work is spot on . He dresses up when out .

 

[Post Driver]

It works both ways, some of the worst fencing I have seen is undertaken by companies with all lads wearing company logo, looking smart, sign written trucks, clip boards for days but don't know a strut from a strainer

 

[quavers]

more thinking boiler suits thick with so thick with grease that they run water , hands the same never bothered washed , using there jumpers for wiping there hands , a wipe with some rags or hand wipes is not to much to ask is it , they walk in to shops and offices like this expecting every one else to clean up after them , sh.t on there wellies and walking into these places is not on , i have taken my own wellies off a the door of the accountants if nipping in some times .back to jumpers the john lewis wool jumpers are rubbish loose there shape far to quick , my fav is my carhartt keeps it shape and warm , dont wear them for work because i find them no use for working with oil and grease
