Meyer dark blue stretch denim jeans - now available to buy online

Meyer stretch denim jeans are top quality. They have a classic fit, comfortable but hard-wearing fabric, and stylish detailing. We are pleased to have the dark blue jeans in our online shop now, as well as in our shop in Brecon.

Meyer denim is 98% cotton and 2% elastane - and it's the elastane that gives the stretch that makes Meyer jeans so comfortable. A high quality waistband with double fabric also helps give comfort and a good fit. There are 7 belt loops, one with a subtle stiched "M" logo, and a matching belt with a neat silver-effect buckle is included. The zip fly also has a hook fastening, and has no sharp edges on the zip

The traditional 5 pockets (2 front, 2 back, one coin pocket) are supplemented by a concealed, zipped security pocket. The back pockets have stylish details and stitching, and a button fastening.

Meyer jeans team up well with a Viyella shirt and a jumper. Smart and practical, they are great for everyday wear, and for casual evenings out. They really are the jeans for men who do not usually wear jeans. Certainly my two pairs are often in use when I am not wearing a suit in the shop! I hope you like them as much as I do.

If you have any questions about the Meyer dark blue jeans, do give us a call on 01874 623613. We look forward to being able to help.

Full details are explained on our BFPO - How to order page. When you enter the delivery address for your order, for "Country" select "BFPO" from the drop-down list of countries.

If your BFPO address is inside the EU, we need a correctly completed and signed form 15(10) tax exemption form. You can download a sample form 15(10) here: Tax Exemption Form 15(10). We will process your order when you place it, but cannot dispatch it until we receive your completed form 15(10) in the post. If we do not receive the completed form within 14 days, we will contact you to see if you still wish to proceed with your order.

We are delighted to receive orders from service personnel, and are glad to be able to offer this option for them.

Red trouser braces with extra strong clips - a great Christmas gift

Our wide braces with extra strong clips are best sellers. Soon we'll be adding red braces to our existing range of navy, grey, wine, and green. Sizes are standard, extra long (XL), and extra extra long (XXL) for really tall men - so there are strong braces for men of all heights and sizes. 

These braces have 2 strong clips at the front and 2 strong clips at the back ("X" shape), with a slider at the back to adjust the angle of the straps. The extra wide clips (2.5 cm) for extra strong grip really make a difference. Many braces are a similar width to ours, but few have the wide clip. It's the width of the clip that gives the strength of grip.

With wide straps for comfort, and wide clips for strength, these are strong and secure braces (suspenders) for trousers. They are smart, practical, and very popular with our customers.

For red extra strong braces, check back on our website soon. Red braces will be in stock in time for Christmas orders. If you would like to find out more, or reserve a pair of red extra strong braces for Christmas, phone us in our shop in Brecon on 01874 623613.

Meyer men's heavyweight corduroy trousers for autumn and winter

Meyer men's cords are top quality heavyweight trousers for autumn and winter wear. Meyer are known for their high standards and attention to detail - and these splendid corduroys in deep red, rich gold, and navy blue are exceptionally fine trousers.

This heavyweight corduroy fabric is 80% cotton, 18% polyamide, and 2% elastane. That gives it just enough stretch to be comfortable when you sit down, while retaining its shape and smart appearance. The flat front with 2 darts also combines comfort with style.

Practical touches include 2 slant side pockets, 2 hip pockets with button fastening, and an extra security coin pocket. The leg hems are reinforced internally to protect them against wear. Machine washable at 40 degrees, Meyer corduroys are certainly easy to care for. 

We stock Meyer stretch cords in deep red, rich gold, and navy blue. They are available to order online in the Meyer corduroy section of our online shop. You can also phone us on 01874 623613 to find out more or place an order, or call in to see us in our shop in Brecon. Meyer cords are a favourite with our customers, and we recommend them very highly.
