Wolsey Cardinal calf length socks: last few!

We have some Wolsey Cardinal socks in stock, but they are sellling quickly. Wolsey have discontinued these calf length socks (half hose), so we will not be able to get any more. Currently we have some mid-grey Cardinals in size 6-8, rustic brown Cardinals in sizes 6-8 and 9-10, and black Cardinals in size 6-8 and size 11-12. 

You can order safely online in the sock section of this website, or call us in the shop on 01874 623613 to order over the telephone.

These are CALF LENGTH socks. We have already sold out of Wolsey's knee length Grip Top socks (which have also been discontinued).

Non-essential shop in Wales re-opening

Non-essential shops in Wales can re-open on Monday 12th April. I will be delighted to welcome customers, but - as I will sometimes be out seeing customers - please contact me on 01874 623613 before travelling to the shop. 

Phoning ahead will also ensure you can time your visit to have plenty of space in the shop for social distancing to help keep everyone safe. 

Online and telephone orders are continuing as usual, with parcels dispatched as soon as possible so they arrive with you within approximately 3-5 days in the UK (overseas delivery is dependent on local services in your country).

You are also welcome to phone me to arrange to collect items from the shop or from the counter outside the shop.

Online orders, phone orders, and collection from shop in Brecon all continuing as usual

Online orders and telephone orders are continuing as usual even though the shop has to remain shut as "non-essential retail" under the current Covid rules. We pack parcels in the evenings and post orders out from Brecon Post Office.

Alternatively you can arrange socially-distanced collection from the shop, or I can deliver if you are near to Brecon.

Give me a call on 01874 623613 to place an order or find out more - I'll be delighted to have a chat with you.

Telephone orders and online orders available as usual during Covid restrictions

Although the shop is closed due to Covid restrictions, you are welcome to telephone us on 01874 623613 to place an order. We can send items to you by Royal Mail, or you can arrange a time for safe collection from the counter outside my shop in Brecon.

I can also deliver locally, observing social distancing and wearing appropriate PPE.

Online orders are continuing as normal. I am packing items in the evenings and sending parcels from Brecon Post Office, usually the next day. 

Royal Mail parcels are generally arriving in the expected timescale, though Covid means occasionally there are slight delays. 

For delivery to addresses in the EU, since 1st January 2021 there are local taxes to be paid by the recipient. We have no control over these and do not know the local rates. Your local tax office can usually provide details.

If you have any queries about ordering, do give us a call in Brecon on 01874 623613 and we'll be pleased to have a chat to help you.

Olymp non-iron Luxor shirts in pink and blue: long sleeve, easy care, smart, comfortable to wear

Olymp make beautiful shirts and we're pleased to add more of their Luxor non-iron 100% cotton long sleeve shirts to our online shop. These pink shirts and blue shirts are great for business and leisure, looking smart both with suits and with less formal attire.

We have a pink shirt with subtle self-pattern in the weave, a plain pink shirt with Paisley lining inside the collar, and a plain blue shirt with Paisley lining inside the collar. At the moment we have stock in all sizes from 15.5 inch neck to 18 inch neck. Olymp describe these shirts as "modern fit", but I know from wearing them myself that they are a standard cut (and are certainly not slim-fit).

Olymp Luxor shirts are finely tailored with nice details such as contrast buttons and a subtle Olymp logo on the cuff. Wrinkle free, non-iron, and breathable, they are great for practicality too.

You are welcome to order online or to call us in the shop on 01874 623613 to check availablity and order over the telephone - we'll be glad to help.
