    Vintage 1930s cycling jacket by Holdsworth's Beckenham

    i've never seen anything quite like this jacket, with the specifically cycling label. could even be 20s. shame that the back doesn't have any pleats in it.

    i really like the shirt and tie.... the tie looks Edwardian - 20s ?

    1920s suits

    yes, they stray into vaudeville territory. perfect for a villain character like the above though.

    Thank God for Ralph Lauren

    looks like they've had it fastened at the top button and it's developed a bit of a kink. yes, Ralph's patch pocket belt backs can be pretty authentic. personally i think he should either do the 30s well or not do the 30s at all. but don't make some sort of lame compromise. i'd rather see good...

    Thank God for Ralph Lauren

    new stuff from RRL's tailoring division. this is 'early 20th century inspired'. not sure which bit exactly, but could pass as 20s conservative: these are '30s inspired': hmm, narrow trousers with a 30s jacket ? unlikely to win much support here:

    What are you wearing today??

    they're 40mm, though the lens isn't perfectly round. it's actually 40mm wide and 38mm high. (the luxury, no holds barred version of this style is C W Dixey's 'Chartwell 01' at a slightly more eye-watering £380)

    Pinstripe coat w/solid color trousers

    great jacket fabric. that raised texture is not something you'd find in many swatch books today (understatement).

    the trousers look late teens to early 20s to me, going by the waist lining, ankle width and fastenings. however, it's possible they're later but made to an earlier style for an older gent.

    p.s. the jacket looks in pretty good condition compared to these: ;) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VTG-1940s-GERMAN-WW2-TRASHED-CHORE-LONG-JOHNS-WEHRMACT-TRASHED-PANTS-work-hobo-/261565612113?pt=UK_Collectables_Militaria_LE&hash=item3ce6868051

    it's interesting though, just how many repairs the jacket's owner decided that the jacket deserved. i would have stopped wearing the jacket after just one major hole on the front, if it was a 'smart' jacket. but if it's a gardening jacket or work jacket where do you stop ?
