I haven't seen anything like it before I must say. I'm now better informed. Thanks for the education Jock.

To be fair, Martin, I have not seen any of the younger generation wear such attire recently.Not many could afford it(could they ever?), but I have no doubts though, in the course of time, this style of attire will be handed down for a few more generations to wear, yet.
