The Tweed lobby made a bold move late this afternoon by sending out a video from their Tweed Run, which took place on October 15th. So why did they wait nearly a month to release this footage? Well, not to get all conspiracy about it, but this Friday (11/11/11) is the Corduroy Appreciation Club's final meeting. Could this mean war? Is Tweed the new Corduroy? You gonna take that, velvet?!

Are you considering switching over from wales to professor patches?
