Cede control of what, exactly? For menswear at least, it's not that difficult to find modest clothing in classic styles at reasonable prices.

For those of us with fewer wives than Wade, making our own clothes seems like a difficult, time-consuming, entirely unfulfilling chore with little chance of success. Possibly even a direct violation of Jesus' teaching to take no thought about what to wear.
Soon the jobs will be brought back, we'll be having our clothing made by underpaid domestic workers instead, and the overseas labour will be worse off than ever. Then again, the Donald J. Trump Signature Collection of menswear is made in Mexico, so maybe overseas will become overwall. That could be a revival of a rural fashion trend, flannel shirts and overwalls.Josh wrote:I think having our clothing made by slave labour overseas is not very close to kingdom living.

Well, back in Jesus' time, men just took their garments off when they were working, which would be OSHA compliant...temporal1 wrote:OSHA would never allow.JimFoxvog wrote:I wonder if for men's clothing we should be more simple and conservative, going back to the clothing of Jesus' time, with simple tunics or albs.
