Read the commentsNo, they're pretty much the same as regular chinos, that was the point of the experiment really. Personally I wouldn't wear them with tweed jackets, but then again as I've said I just don't like that look that much.

Hi Simon,
Thanks for posting these pics. It also helps to put faces on well known names!

Hi Simon. Great article as usual. Two questions.
1. How can you afford bespoke?
2. How can I dress well with (MTM or bespoke) on a budget?
1. Partly, I’m fairly well into my career and earn decent money now – I couldn’t have afforded anywhere near as much 10 years ago. And partly, prioritisation. I know people (particularly women) who buy even more clothing than me, but all cheap, and it doesn’t last. I also don’t really have expensive tastes in anything else.
2. Save up and buy quality, buy conservative styles that will last, and have a read of posts like ‘make a cheap suit look good‘
