As someone who spent the first 15 years of his service life in blues.......hairy thru to thunderbirds and the last 14 wearing my "bag" to work I can safely vouch for the fact that those ghastly "barathea" gaments were some of the most uncomfortable i have ever worn.

A growbag is supposed to look as if it only fits where it touches, whilst blues are supposed to look smart and well tailored....................however bearing in mind that during the 29 years of my service I cannot recall when we last purchased anything ranging from plimsoles to rifles that was fit for the task is it any surprise that the majority of us look like bags of pooh when dressed in blue.

So with that in mind if i have to look like a bag of pooh I might as well be a comfortable bag of pooh, as a quick aside if the "bag" is that much of an eyesore how come so many other "trades" take delight in wearng them
