    Gentlemen, show us what you've made!

    I did not see your post about them looking better without cuffs. Not contesting it. But post away by all means! Yes, it's in the waistband.

    Gentlemen, show us what you've made!

    They look good Baron. Similar double pleated, fob pocketed setup to my 1950s Burton trousers. Even though they are too long for you, I can see them looking good with workwear style turn ups. I bought all my swedish work trousers a bit too long for this purpose. Edit: Ah Fastuni beat me to it.

    Tumblr blogs for vintage inspiration and images.

    Lol those ideals eventually became probably as confused as the modern workwear ones. A tattoo is too permanent a style decision for me... There is no guarantee that I will have 100% the same taste 10 years from now.

    Everyday Women of the Golden Era

    Women from Romania. From a massive, recently discovered collection of photos. http://colectiacosticaacsinte.eu/ Most people aren't smiling in these photos. I noticed that I had saved most of the photos where the subject is. What a difference it makes!

    Romania between the wars

    Romania between the wars

    It really is a treasure trove... It is just the sort of thing I'm always looking for, photos of a random cross section of the population. Film stars do not give the full picture. There is a definite preference for peak lapels. Here are some more good ones: Two Types, are there any good...

    Romania between the wars

    Wonderful photos. An interesting merging of traditional with modern style. I think the women look very beautiful! More on flickr and facebook https://www.flickr.com/photos/costicaacsinte/with/12395668774 https://www.facebook.com/costicaacsinte/photos_stream

    Loop Collar shirt in burgundy corduroy size 42

    Hello all, I really wanted to hold on to this shirt, but I have come to accept that the sleeves are too short for me. It is a modern repro by Freddies of Pinewood, famous for their vintage style jeans. Very nice thick burgundy corduroy. Back Side pleats and flapped pockets. Only worn on a...

    Calling German loungers - Jukejive

    I emailed them and sent them a message on facebook. If I don't get a reply, I will pass. Shame, cause I like some of their products but I'm not going to run after them.

    Overly appreciated movies?

    For me Tarantino films. I understand that you are supposed to enjoy the little detail here and there that is a homage to this and that, but I don't think the films have enough substance to stand on their own. Kill Bill in particular. I think half an hour of limbs being chopped off, whether it...

    It's a shame P-47s weren't used in Korea, a far more suitable aircraft for ground attack than the (F)P-51.

    Spear point collar shirts

    They cost around £30 including postage, no extra charge for the custom features. So in that regard, very pleased. There was a quality control issue with the white shirt, one of the collar stay slots was sewn at too steep an angle and is not functional. I wasn't really planning on using collar...

    Spear point collar shirts

    I had Natty make me two spearpoint collared shirts based on this photo of a 1930s French shirt on ebay: And asked them to raise the collar stand a bit, and give the collars a generous length. They are 4 inches long. Thick denim blue cotton with white and burgundy stripes And lightweight...

    Show us their suits

    Ditto, that is a nice one. I think it makes the jacket look a bit more sporty, which increases it's versatility. Can be dressed up or down to use a platitude.

    Overly appreciated movies?

    I don't like musicals in general, but I think the songs in Jesus Christ Superstar are amazing.

    Auction off a one-of-a-kind collection of vintage German leather coats

    That sounds interesting. Just out of curiosity, are they all long double breasted trench coats, or are there any shorter, single breasted and/or zipper jackets in the collection?
