Jojo is now stocking a good range of vintage US leather jackets including Blatt Windward and Hercules.

Found a pair of high waisted brown cotton trousers at levisions yesterday and they did fit me perfectly. Today I found virtually the same trousers at hunky dory for half the price and bought them. Same size same stamped tags. I think they must be deadstock from the same batch and possibly military but I really don't know which era. 40s-50s french I guess.

Then we visited the fashion on the ration exhibition and surprise! They had the same trousers in a display as brit workwear for the wartime factories. I think they didn't research them properly because I am 80% sure they are French. Anyway, pics as soon as I get home.

Excellent. I am glad you found something to buy. Did Janet find anything else? Did she go back to 'House of Vintage' to buy the red hat?

'Hunky Dory' can be a good shop. I have found two large size belt back, French workwear jackets there. And they have lots of 1950s trousers (probably German, maybe Italian?).

I found this in Rag Parade Sheffield - does anyone know what it is?
