World Cup 2018: England fans in waistcoats jet off to Russia to watch semi-final with Croatia as Marks and Spencer sell out ahead of ‘waistcoat Wednesday’
Supporters have been flocking to the British store to purchase an official waistcoat ahead of the clash against Croatia
ENGLAND fans gearing up for "waistcoat Wednesday" have been jetting out of Heathrow wearing their Gareth Southgate tributes.
The Three Lions boss is winning the hearts of the nation with his football and fashion, so much so supporters are flying out to Moscow, dressed in his image, to support him.
Southgate has become synonymous for his waistcoat since he started wearing it during England's World Cup qualifying campaign.
But with the Three Lions just one win away from booking a spot in the final for the first time since 1966, Southgate's stylish attire is sweeping the nation.
A spokesman from M&S said: "Gareth’s sideline style has meant our waistcoats are really scoring with our customers with sales doubling since the World Cup began.
"We’ve got enough different styles in stock for everyone to show their support for the boys on #waistcoatwednesday.”
Searches for the word "waistcoat" peaked last Wednesday when England won their first ever penalty shoot out against Colombia in the last 16 match.
