Greetings, All---

Thankfully, because of golfer Payne Stewart and the retro-golf attire market plus-fours (there are also plus twos and plus sixes, referring to how much extra fabric the garment has round the leg) can still be had in any of a number of places. Below are a few "links."

Prices vary from the low $100s to the $300 range.

I haven't bought any yet, but I plan to.

Also, you can alway hire a freelance seamstress or tailor. My cousin is a expert seamstress and used to have a shop in Cambridge, Massachusetts where she would make custom clothing. For example, a customer sees a jacket Humphrey Bogart is wearing in "High Sierra" and wants an exact copy. She would do it to the T. While she no longer is in that line of work, others still are and can be found via the Web or the Yellow Pages.

Warm regards all 'round---
