Sneaker Revival?

Don't tell me Sneakers, those dated gym-shoes, are making a comeback? I must have a rummage up in the attic again. I may well have a pair gathering dust somewhere.

Most of my favourite clothing is almost thirty years old, including now-vintage black Levi denims, three Turnbull shirts and ties, a Burberry trench-coat and a grey worsted three-piece lounge suit.

The old dinner jacket, which will get an airing at Castle Ward in June, is 76 years old. The trousers and bow-tie have no date label; I expect they are of a similar vintage.
