Pendleton From Head to Toe – 1958

Both the plaid sports jacket and the holdall are really nice, although I'm not sure I'd want to wear one and carry the other at the same time. The holdall should be one for the Japanese reissue... …

Pushing Weejuns On The Side. North Carolina 1963

Sometimes it's hard to remember just how ubiquitous these things were. Herb Lester sent me some links to a treasure trove of vintage campus images from the Boom Period. I'll post them as I get time, many of them need no comment but just help get that feel of the Look and how these clothes were …

Deadstock Bass Weejuns: Tassel Loafers 1970s & 1980s

Today I received a pair of vintage Bass Weejuns in the post from my good friend and thrifting colleague on the West Coast, Fred. He'd picked them up from a US Ebay seller who didn't ship internationally, but had been a touch small for him. Lucky for me, as they fit me perfectly. This is the …

A Man You Can Lean On, That’s Klopman (1966)

Been a bit tardy with post recently due to other commitments, but fear not I've been clipping ads of interest behind the scenes and will be posting some of them over the next week or so. As well as the odd more in depth piece, sometimes it's nice just to look at stuff, right? Pick up that …

I Was a CIA Ivy Look Spy!

I don't normally re-blog the work of others, but sometimes you come across something that's too good not to share. Take the very excellent The Ivy League Look blog's recent post on the CIA having issues wearing Ivy League style.... ... and the Russian KGB trying to mimic it! Always …

Clarks Loden Green DBs Now in London…NOT!

Sorry false report from Mr Herb Lester I'm afraid - see comments below. Herb is much apologetic, but easy mistake to make - the 'Tobacco Suede' are the colour of loden cloth, whereas the Loden Suede are so dark green as to be almost black. Go figure. My Loden Green desert boots arrived from the USA …

Deadstock Brooks Brothers OCBDs

I recently discovered that for years I'd been buying OCBDs from Brooks Brothers in the wrong size. Too big. I think it all started in the 80s when I was either buying from FLIP (no choice but to fit into what they had on offer) or then later in the decade when picking up some hand me down shirts …

McCurrach Ties

This advert is from 1944 but the range of ties on display could be from 1964, 1984 or even 2014? I do like a tartan knit tie …

1960s Deadstock Keith Highlanders Long Wing Brogues

Keith Highlander is one of the lesser known names in the great pantheon of classic American shoemakers. Once a household name, these days it hardly warrants a mention on the tradly forums where Alden is God (and Allen Edmonds a mere disciple). But if you look back in time and see the …
