    Vintage menswear that's IMPOSSIBLE to find

    well I haven't yet tried this...but it has crossed my mind to get a US Army tan canvas belt and bleach it, then maybe touch up with blanco (kit whitener) if results are patchy But don't blame me if it ends in tears

    Vintage Sunglasses

    thanks BT - I'll give photobucket a try. BTW: did you say 9.99??? 9.99???? I'm green! Ebay can be a real buyers market, especially if you put a bit of effort into the search!

    BT, how did you post your picture? I can't seem to find an attachment feature anywhere on this site. I looked all over " reply to thread" and Control panel. A little box on my viewing pages say's I can't post attachments. Any advice?

    Vintage Sunglasses

    nice example BT! I won't ask how much you paid! Daniel - that should give you a good idea of what they are like, but the lenses are actually a lot darker than it looks in the pic

    Vintage Sunglasses

    Daniel, though the original picture is only a side view they appear to be a very typical 30s or 40s round lens, wire frame pair. That is, they are like the characteristic period "granny specs" (such as John Lennon used to wear, loathe as I am to cite his name in this forum) but with tinted...

    LVC 1937XX redline 201s

    unfortunately these are too big for me, but here's a free advertizing plug. I've owned or sold hundreds of vintage and repro vintage jeans and I'd say the 1937 201xx and 501xx are the finest jeans Levi ever made. And the SF made LVC from c.1996 to 2003 are the best repros they ever did. Hope you...

    Anyone hate the Federation??

    I've always worn vintage hats but of late I've been considering (shock horror) a modern one. The federation looks good on the website...got a proper leather sweatband and satin lining. But what's the felt like? Is it fur felt? Do they shrink? Any advice much appreciated

    Johnny Depp, Fedora Ambassador

    (I posted this before Bob's reply above.....then accidentally deleted when making a slight edit. I'm new to this site and only just getting the hang of this newfangled technology. Sorry!) As regards "sedition": I can?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t find my OED but Collins says: ?¢‚Ǩ?ì1) Speech or behaviour...

    Johnny Depp, Fedora Ambassador

    Any position on JD?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s acting ability or sex appeal has to be purely subjective. Personally, I saw him in legend of Sleepy Hollow and Pirates of the Carribean and I thought he was great. And all the women I know seem to think he?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s the best thing since Sean Connery. As...

    30's~40's Work Boots

    work boots I can get real drooley about proper work boots....I think I might have some sort of fetish. Here in the UK several companies still make mens boots to the same patterns and quality as 60 years ago...they are expensive but a pair of classic veldtschoen or welted country boots from one...
