CONOR MCGREGOR’S PROFANE PINSTRIPE

Not content with just trash talk, Conor McGregor showed up to the big fight’s press day in a suit that spoke for itself. What at first glance looks like a classic pinstripe is, in fact, a big “f*** you” to Mayweather… Woven over and over across the cloth of his three-piece suit.

WHERE CAN YOU GET A “F*** YOU” SUIT?

It’s not the first time we’ve seen such a cloth, although it is certainly the first time we’ve seen it used to make this kind of statement!

The cloth used in this suit was woven by one of our cloth merchants – Huddersfield Fine Worsteds. It was made, bespoke, for Mr. McGregor from their Bedlam Super 130s cloth.

Holland & Sherry also offer a very similar cloth as part of their Signature Collection, where you can have your own name, company or slogan woven into a Super 140s cloth – strictly no profanities though! The wording in the stripe is clearly visible up close but is softly muted from a distance.
