I assumed the "never wore them" could be taken in two ways: either he hates them and doesn't want to wear them, or he has only just recently received them and hasn't worn them yet even though he does like them. (Maybe saving them for best, haha. Aww.) And that's why it's so weird - if he hates them, why does he care about Clara wearing them? Although the objection that he is not a silk pyjama kind of man does make sense and also makes me laugh. Hee.
My tinhat and I are entirely on board with your idea that Archie's "sister" is actually Wolfe. LOLOL. (I am picturing Wolfe trying to explain to Archie that he needs to change his manuscript before he sends it to the publisher because it's making him look like too much of an old perv, hahahaha.) It does make way more sense, especially since - um, as far as I know - Archie doesn't mention having living family around any other time, does he?
