And, for the well-dressed police decoy…
The decoy game is pretty competitive these days. There are not enough scalawags and knaves to go around. The smart decoy needs an edge. We think the outfit shown here, from Portugal’s fashion week, is the best of the season. White shoes sold separately.

- Posted by Ayal RosenthalYeah, there are so many great colorful words for these scamps and scoundrels that just don’t find their way into daily conversation. It would be enough to make me consider the police decoy profession, if I didn’t have to dress like this.
