    Just to be clear, as I'm not currently aware, I'm assuming this means Magnoli is working on making a QoS cardigan available eventually?

    Not that I know of, I believe he is liquidating his knitwear selection and is selling off these cardigans as are.

    Yeah it's not a bad approximation. I'm impressed you found it. I've been shopping around for shawl-collar cardigans for a while now and there's very little available at the moment, I guess because they're out of season. A lot of online listings appear to be left-over stock that retailers are trying to get rid of before the new stuff comes in for Fall.

    I think you have done very well JON-1 ,to put it into perspective ,yours is £45.00
    the real Mcoy is what $1300, US the difference is a very nice holiday,
    or some other Bond clothing (Billy p-coat and Barbour jacket) get the picture
    I got mine from Marks and sparks in their blue harbour range, just had to wack on the relevant
    buttons ,chinos,white shirt, suede chukkas and Bobs your teapot, many a time ive been stopped and told
    "I like your Tom Ford " I know it wouldn't fool people like our resident TF expert old welshie
    or M,G but im happy its keeping within the spirit of being a Bondite that counts for me :)
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?

    cheers shake !!
    I did try to get an M&S one but it had been discontinued by the time I got round to it.
    I have searched high and low for something close, probably more then I have searched for any other piece of bond
    clothing.
