I think is this jacket: https://thearmoury.com/blogs/journal/the-armoury-x-ascot-chang-safari-jacket
Very nice looking indeed, but its price doesn't suit me as the jacket surely would...:(
I have one. It was purchased in 2011, is that old enough?. It is still like new.
The colour is russet brown and hasn't faded or developed any kind of patina yet. I wear it almost daily during autumn and part of the spring. The sleeve seam a little bit used at the elbow, some creases and...
I sent mine to dry cleaning after many years of use and re-waxing, and I got it completely ruined, some threads became very fragile as well as the fabric at worn areas. The job was done by a dry cleaner that advertised as "barbour (like) cleaners" although they warned me about the possible bad...
There are many things in our home that have been either repaired or just brought back to use with just a clean-up. We use some enamel ware in the kitchen that belonged to my grandmother, I have two Montblanc fountain pens, one belonged to my grandfather and the other to my father. Grandfather's...
On top of "Tuc de Mulleres" on the Pyrenees. We used to call this picture "La bruja, el monstruo y el capitan araña" i.e.: "the witch, the monster and captain spider", I don't know exactly why.
Not too cool indeed !
It's curious, I have been browsing old pictures and is hard to find our cars on them. It seems that I was more interested in landscapes and animals than in ourselves.
Those were the first camels we happened to see. Probably on leave :D
The only decent picture of our...
I've always shaved wet. Only tried an electric razor a couple of times long ago and didn't like the burning sensation on my face.
Through many years I used disposable or refillable shavers (i.e. gillette, wilkinson's and so on), but two years ago I decided to clean up and give a second life to...
I agree with you. Honey shouldn't be heated because heat will denaturalize its enzymes, vitamines and other natural nutrients and bio-mollecules that make it such a good and healthy food. Yet, if it is processed honey coming from a food company, it might have lost all of its properties so you...
Our little Safari vehicle. October 1989 Timimoun Algeria, a six week trip ahead of us across the sahara desert right a month before the touareg uprisal in Mali and Niger which caught us in the middle. Fortunately we could make it back through the desert northwards with just some encounters with...
Awesome job, Narodnik!
I really envy your skill. I've made a few things myself (mainly small furnitures and small leather crafts) but far from that.
Congratulations. Sure you will wear with satisfaction and pride.
Like Mrfish five years ago, I will be in Pittsburgh for a few weeks and would appreciate any useful information on shopping i.e vintage, outerwear, surplus, sartorial,...
Thank you
Sorry for the unintended attached thumbnail
:eusa_doh:I didn't want to post that last picture, but couldn manage to take it out[huh], it stuck as an attached thumbnail.
Is a partial view of the Aga used for cooking all our meals on board. I am the author of that last pic.
