I stumbled across Lodger shoes on a blog a couple of weeks ago, and took a look at their range at their shop on Clifford Street in London.
If you go looking for it, they're in the Lutwyche & Lodger store. I missed it the first time I went past.
The Lodger style seems to be classic with a...
Brooklands are having a sale of a few (51 to be exact :eeek:) '30s and '40s automobiles that were used in the upcoming Captain America film.
Prices are typically between £1,000 and £10,000, though one or two are above this.
If you want to browse then the auction catalogue is here.
My...
No, not a social disease, but an A1 style sweatshirt / cardigan.
It seems reasonably well put together, is made from a polyester / cotton blend, and they're currently half price in the sale at the Luke website, though with a limited range of sizes.
The sizes come up a bit small (I got...
I was in the centre of London yesterday, and decided to visit Patey Hats, who recently opened a shop on Connaught Street.
I've been wanting to take a look at their bowlers for a while, but they used to be based out in the wilds of Dulwich, and I never made it out that far. The shop opened two...
I found the Archer Adams shop in London this afternoon, and had a good chat to Mr. Adams who runs it.
It turns out that he's the only Aero dealer in the UK, and though he has half a dozen on the rails (including the possibly last Buffalo Cropduster), he prefers to get his customers to order...
I hope that I'm not breaking any rules by posting this, as I'm not associated with the company.
The Space furniture store on Church Street in Melbourne currently has a pair of Cassina LC7 armchairs for sale. They are upholstered in a cream canvas, with matt black legs, and look like the one...
Royal Enfield and Lewis Leathers have got together to produce a bike.
According to MCN, only fifty will be built, and they'll cost £5350.
Right, so who's buying one? :)
Since everyone seems to be talking about motorcycles today, I thought that I'd offer a few suggestions for boots.
I'm currently looking at getting a pair of Altberg Clubman Classics. They're a high-legged boot in a retro fashion. They've got a full European CE rating as protective gear...
I've just put a deposit down for a BKS Leathers suit. They make Aeros look like a bargain. :eek:
I think that I'd better explain...
I got into motorcycling last year, and it turns out that my Aero really wouldn't cut in a crash. What you need is a CE-rated one or two piece leather suit...
Do any of the custom hat shops make crushable fedoras?
I've looked in a couple of old threads, and no-one's mentioned them. So I'm guessing that the answer's no.
My somewhat modified Aero Cossack is just being finished off, and I got sent a couple of photos by Amanda so that I could decide on button placement.
Since there seems to be an Aero fan club around here, here's a sneak preview:
The jacket's a Cossack with a double breasted, button-up...
For sale: Aero Leather Hercules in black, front quarter horsehide with a green, quilted rayon lining.
The jacket is size 50, with an extra 2" of length added to the sleeves and body.
The chest size feels smaller than on the label. So would probably suit someone who's 46" to 48" better...
After a protracted period, I've finally figured out that I want to buy an Aero Cossack. However, I'm not sure about the colour.
I'm off black at the moment, as it doesn't age in an interesting manner. Seal brown and oil pull are only available in the lighter grades. That leaves cherry (which...
