    GABARDINE SHIRTS

    FT: I'll take your recommendation. Swanky's shirts are now on my short list of upcoming purchases. I'd like to get the white long sleeve pictured and one of the short sleeve cable knits.

    What are you wearing today??

    I haven't left the house yet today, so my comfort apparel today is a 1940s Pendleton shirt, mustard-colored Dickies jeans, brown Chippewa work boots. I got a little chilly so I put on an old Army pullover sweater.

    is wearing vintage uncomfortable for you ?

    Reet...you make a good point. If you are comparing comfort of a suit with that of jean & a t-shirt, it's no contest. I've no need to put on a suit today, so I'm currently wearing a 1940s Pendleton shirt with Dickies jeans (medium rise) & some work boots. I couldn't be more comfortable (unless...

    is wearing vintage uncomfortable for you ?

    Perhaps it is my size...not remarkable in any way. I'm 6'0" & 175 lbs. I feel most comfortable in vintage, shirts, pants, jackets, suits...whatever. I generally do not like the loose cut of modern clothing. I do, of course, believe that the clothing is made to match the thicker people that...

    What are you wearing today??

    Cudahy is one of those small towns that you can enter and get the sense that it hasn't changed at all since the golden era. I am, however, unfamiliar with Wasika's. Today: Early 1940s? double-breasted suit. Heavy, stiff wool. Dark navy blue with a subtle burgundy checked pattern. Nice...

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    I have two of them I wear for every day use...when I don't want to worry about ruining a real nice watch. I bought them about 10 years ago. They both look a bit like the Gruen Curvex recent issues.

    I have a favorite newsboy in black/grey herringbone that I have had for years and have received numerous compliments for. I think I'll be sending it to B! Wear to serve as a model to have him make me a couple of custom caps. I have a few of these caps, but always find myself in this one I...

    Wallet, Money Clip...?

    I always use a money clip that was gifted to me by my wife. She liked the horseshoe on it...told me it was lucky. I do keep my driver's license and credit card tucked inside my bills. Perhaps this is strange. I really do not want to carry a bulky wallet in my pocket, but like having...

    In A Lonely Place

    Man, I can't believe I hadn't seen this film until just now. I recorded it last week & just watched it today. I don't know if it's his best film, but his acting is as good as ever!

    Thin ties...any thoughts?

    In my much younger days when I owned exclusively fat belly warmers I received a skinny solid red '50s tie with a so-called 'atomic age' icon (some kind of planet with an orbiting ring) as a Christmas gift. At the time, this was way too 'modern' for me. Over time, I've loosened up...Although I...
