    in the UK there was definitely an early 50s attempt to adopt the bolder U.S. influence, albeit in a slightly dilute version. it's during the 50s that i think British menswear loses it's identity for a while as it tries to take on both the U.S. and continental influences. one thing i've noticed...

    Vintage Workwear

    i haven't seen any of the repro workwear labels attempt one of these yet; 'auto style' flannel shirt. 'double front with continuous flap-over pockets': Mackinaw 'stag' shirt with 'extra deep collar' ... which looks rather like an Eton or Peter Pan collar usually for young boys rather than...
