12th Man competition, winners announced!

COMPETITION CLOSED! WELL DONE TO IAN, CALUM AND THAICOLLIE

Just like a (well dressed, vintage 1950s) bus, we don’t have a competition on here for ages then two turn up at once. Anyway, dodgy metaphors aside, this week those suave Bolognans at 12th Man have given us three amazing prizes to be won, all of which are ideal garments for the forthcoming summer months and with each being limited to just 99 pieces its unlikely you’ll bump into anyone else wearing one, always a bonus. So to be in with a chance of winning one of these beautifully coloured, made in Italy tees, polos or sweat-shirts just answer the question below (by commenting) remembering to include your size.

Question. What do you think are the three best things to come out of Italy?

Winners will be revealed in approx 2 weeks.
