Now, when will we see Plus 8's Breachers?
I always like the look of the Gentlemen (not just for playing Golf) in the afternoon, a belted tweed jacket with leather patches on the elbows, like a hunting jacket, Plus 8's, Argyle socks and two tome Spector shoes, it makes for a dressy relaxed look. (seen pictures of people like E.L. Cord, Douglas Fairbanks and Charlie Chaplin dressed like this.)
The story goes this also lead to the development of the Boston Bags (United States) or/ Oxford Bags in the U.K., that with the craze for golf among collage men, and that breachers where consider required wear on the course, and not considered acceptable in the hall's of higher education, that some men would have thee slacks made large so as to be worn over the plus 8's, finish class, simply remove the pants, and one ready for the golf course.
This lead to the adoption of the Bags or as we called them in the 1970's, Bell bottom pants, as a popular style in the 1920's.
So, as a Gentlemen of the 1920's, I do look forward to being able to order a pair of Boston Bags, and Plus 8 pants.
