BRADFORD City manager Mark Hughes is set to be suited and booted by a district tailoring firm.
The Bantams boss met with Imran Khan, owner of IK Collections, at Valley Parade to get measured for a new matchday suit.
Mr Hughes opted for a navy blue-coloured suit from the Westgate-based firm. It will include the Bradford City club logo on the breast pocket of the jacket and feature a number of Bantams club logos on the jacket’s inside lining.
A number of the club’s executives will also be sporting the same suit, which Mr Khan’s company will now make.
The City boss, who wears a suit on matchdays, is also set to pay a personal visit to IK Collection’s city shop.
Mr Khan said: “Mark Hughes is a proper, really nice gentleman. He is an absolutely lovely, genuine guy.
“He said he wants a suit for himself too. He was very impressed with the fabric. He was all measured up.
“He said he Googled my company and said it is doing positive things for Bradford.”
The City boss becomes the latest high-profile name to have a suit made by IK Collections, following the likes of Captain Sir Tom Moore, former Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn and Dancing On Ice judge Christopher Dean.
