    Same as! Very comfy and well worth the investment. Only time I'm gonna change is in the summer when I start wearing pirate shorts.

    Snickers here for me also, not sure about the pirate ones in summer they may be cooler to wear, but look a bit Kajagoogoo on.(you old fits will know what i mean.)
