Recently there was some discussion about a lack of interesting fabrics on modern shirts. I was pleasantly surprised by this one I ended up buying from a local M&S outlet.
As far as I can tell it is sold out online, but if anyone is interested I could pick one up for them.

How much is it?

1930s-style work pants by Sugar Cane; repro gab shirt from Morellos; Double H West engineer boots I've had for
a good 15 years at least; Industrie Clothing work jacket; and motorcycle cap from My Baby Jo. Just after a day
helping my neighbour clear his garage out.

Nice! That jacket and cap are killer!

Nice, HBK. I got one of the same shape but in a brighter indigo blue. I actually prefer the greyish chambray but I got mine for a bargain. They have rather narrow and un-boxy fit which is nice.

How is the sleeve length of these shirts? LVC knitwear often has long sleeves suitable for me, but I don't know about the shirts. Usually RTW shirts are not an option for me. The measurements given at END clothing are strange, maybe pit to cuff, which is totally useless. It should be a law to provide the full sleeve length measurement when selling online. ^^

HBK On a fleamarket! But it was a stall with stuff like Red Wings, Edwin waistcoats... I don't know where they got it from. Some outlet perhaps? Sample sales from fairs?
I hope they come back next time and have new things. They also had a Made and Crafted boating blazer with cream and red stripes but it was too short.


Rudie: My M doesn't have very long sleeves. Dunno about the L.

My Levis LVC 1933 reproductions, which I've had now for about 2 years, 8 months. They're from one of those Vente Privee sales that a number of people bought things from. Mine have required 13 patch jobs, and one of the rivets fell off. This is probably the quickest I've ever had a pair of jeans wear out. Anyone else have these still hanging together?
