Trespass Performance Clothing coming to Stafford

Goldilox

How do I edit this?
I can't see them killing off Stafford Outdoor as they're much more of a clothing brand than a general outdoor supplier. If anything was going to yuo'd have thought it would have been Millets...

It wouldn't surprise me, I thought the Stafford one would have got the chop at the same time some others did.

Judging by how many people I see walking around Stafford in outdoor clothing, on a normal day, I suspect it will do fine...

Half my clobber is outdoor, mainly craghoppers from the sales. Just ordered a pair of trespass gloves though from play, its started getting cold!

Most of my clothes are 'outdoor', I understand that a lot of Tesco's have banned people from shopping in pyjamas.

Milletts is looking a bit dodgy - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-16213321 - apparently..

There used to be a Wakefield's in Crabbery Street, before they merged with Millet's, and there was Bedson's in Bridge Street, then Stafford Outdoor leisure came along, with their first shop at the end of Lichfield Road, across from the (old) Library.
Current Millets was Wakefields, Millets were in Crabbery Street possibly where the hairdressers is or maybe the sandwich shop, Wakefields biggest seller must surely have the iconic 'Gas Mask Bag' followed by the 'Great Coat'.........

Gas-Mask bags from Wakefields.....
Death-traps!

I used an RAF one as a school-bag. One day, I was in a rush to get home with it and wore it in the round-the-back-of-the-neck-and-under-the-arms fashion, so that it was easier to run with it securely held to the small of my back. At the time I lived in Bourton on the Water, which has a lot of back-alleys running parallel to the main road. As I ran down one of them, I noticed that I had a shoe-lace undone, so I stooped down to tie it up - and the bag slipped round onto the back of my thighs. I couldn't get it back up and also couldn't get the strap over either shoulder to release it. I made the mistake of trying to work the strap over the top of my head, but this just succeeded in making it even tighter. By now my face was being pressed into my chest and my arms were sticking out backwards. I was struggling to breathe. I decided that I had to try to get to a public space before it was too late. I could only see backwards - through my legs - and couldn't walk properly, due to the ever-tightening strap. I became aware that a chap was watching me, but I couldn't speak by this stage, and I fell over when trying to shuffle towards him. I lay on the floor for some time - in some distress - before he finally decided to undo the strap.

When I had recovered enough to speak, I asked him why he had just stood there for so long and he replied that he had thought that I was having an epileptic fit..
And I saw a proper student in a greatcoat just a few weeks ago..
