There was a bit of a fanfair about a month or two ago when Jigsaw re-launched their menswear line

http://www.jigsaw-online.com/collections/1001693/mens

Popped into their Brum store today. Whilst not entirely the most original items ever, all the stuff I looked at was pretty well made, good prices and good fits. Definetly will be picking some items up (especially as I suspect they'll hit the sales hard)

Had a cracking jigsaw suit in the late 90's, I did. I had Boateng, Paul Smith, Donna Karan etc and none of them got as many compliments, or were as good fabric/ fit as the jigsaw one. csb.

lapels are a bit too skinny, apart from that the spotty blazer looks quite nice

Was it always that pricey? £39 for a plain tee seems abit much (no cheapskate)

Great shout, Gawk. Decent stuff and it's all destined to go 75% off.

Polka blazer is a pearl

Had a browse in the Richmond store, looked like some nice spring gear.

picked up a jacket today. Good service. Tried on a bunch of other stuff all of which was nice. They're also selling fuck all at the moment so should be good sales pickings

Original Jigsaw mens was amazing and all Chris Bailey. Way ahead of it's time. Think they got burned first time around so this collection much safer.

From original collection i had a shirt with zips down both sides and a silver synthetic biker jacket! Still got it somewhere probably worth £4 at auction today.

I picked up the polka jacket from summer and
It's brilliant. Their stuff is really nice. They couldn't be more helpful either in both the bath store and there is a men's shop in London near a Paul smith sale shop (it used to be cabbages and roses) that is nicely done.

Really wish I'd got that polka dot navy blazer. If anyone has it in small... give me a shout.

popped in to the Brum store to check out the new stuff dropped so far.

The peacoat is probably the best I've seen so far this season for under £400. The blackwatch tartan blazer is much better than in all the pics and I will pick up at some point. The car coat/sb mac is really qood quality but too long for the style.

However, the really good stuff is the stuff in the lookbook which hasn't dropped yet.

Really nice looking knitwear (eg below), red peacoat and some greatcoats

This season has been good, and s/s 13 is looking like it'll be decent
