    The London "Heads up" thread

    I was on Brick Lane the other day, Levisons had a 1940s suit jacket, single breasted, peak lapels, grey with blue/shades of grey elaborate pinstripes. Very timeless cut with no exaggerated trendy features. Size 40/42, £120. It fit me, but the price struck me as a bit hefty for an orphaned...

    Great look in the first picture. The octagonal caps seem to have been most popular in France, but it definitely works with your look. What model Olney is that? is it a 'bond' cap?

    Show off the sports coats.

    Nice one Dinerman, I bid on that one but didn't end up winning unfortunately. Two Types, my God! what a great selection. Often I find brown cord jackets a bit stuffy looking, but this one really suits you. By the way, check Baron Kurtz's blog, he has posted about his. The tweed one is...

    What are you wearing today??

    Thank you. Indeed it is! I am now waiting for a summer cap from them. Similar pattern in cotton with the addition of a snap. They accept custom orders, but it requires a bit of persistence and takes a while.

    I'd say it's quite neutral, shouldn't be a problem for any complexion? Maybe a bit tricky to match with trousers if your trousers are grey.

    Bump. The Harris Tweed was sold. I had to relist the other two because the duration of the auction wasn't correct. Sorry about that to those who were watching them! They are back up now. :) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271863173239?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649...

    Great jacket. I'm surprised that the black/grey herringbone tweed is so underused, it is probably the most understated and 'city appropriate' style there is. rather unusual but inspired pattern matching there Fastuni.

    30s-40s British Workwear Influenced Style

    Yes!! That is my daily cap. Mine is in a light grey thick flannel. The tall snap brim ones look nice too, if less wide. Delivery is £10. Try the .com version of their page, it is in English. As to knowing what works, in surplus sites or otherwise, the answer is research. If you like the...

    30s-40s British Workwear Influenced Style

    The ones I was selling were actually by the British brand Olney. :) Sterkowski is the Polish brand, they have a large vintage looking cap, it comes in a couple of different flannels or tweed. It works perfectly for me, a simple round cap. Another good cap maker is MamieBlues Paris...
