    1950s BLACK LEATHER BIKE JACKET - very like aero highwayman

    Just listed half a dozen items on eBay including this classic 1950s or early 1960s British style (but Canadian made) rocker/greaser jacket. Design is very like Aero Leather’s “Highwayman”, but this is an original vintage piece not a modern lookalike. Fits a 38 and maybe a 40. Straight...

    VINTAGE MEN’S DERBY/GIBSON & OXFORD SHOES small (UK 6.5, US 7)

    Just listed half a dozen items on eBay including two pairs of classic men’s shoes in the same size (6.5 UK, 7 US). They date to the 1960s/70s rather than the 40s/50s, but the quality and design of these English bench-made welted shoes is pretty timeless. One pair black Oxfords and one pair of...

    Classic ALFRED DUNHILL GABARDINE JACKET (M-1941 style)

    Just listed half a dozen items on eBay including this classic gab jacket from the great ALFRED DUNHILL of Jermyn Street. It’s a 1930s design, though the jacket probably dates to the 1970s. However, the quality is as Golden Age as the design, and if this fitted me it wouldn’t be for sale...

    LEVI LVC "1914 CHINOS" (1920's khaki trousers)

    I’m selling these rare LVC (Levi Vintage Clothing) chinos. This is the “1914 Chino” they offered several years ago. It’s an exact copy of a pair in Levi’s archival collection. Despite the title I believe they actually date to the early 1920s. If you’re looking for a pair of...

    LVC/AERO 1930's LEATHER BIKE JACKET

    I am selling my LVC (Levi Vintage Clothing) copy of a 1930’s Levi Strauss black horsehide biker jacket. These were a limited edition made for Levi by AERO LEATHER in Scotland about 4 or 5 years ago and produced for just one season, so you won‘t find any in the shops. Levi marketed this...

    Dating a Borsalino

    no I've not started going out with an Italian (ha ha). seems a lot of folks round here are finding cheap Borsalinos at the moment! I just picked one up for £10, that's about $15. I'm guessing this one dates to the 70s or 80s, but I understand that you can date a Borsalino precisely by...

    Got Genealogy?

    Hey Bob, the Scots are British. And so are the Scotch-Irish (Ulster protestants) if that's what you mean (as opposed to "Scottish and Irish" which is not the same thing). In fact the Scotch-Irish are the most fervently British people in the British Isles and the average Ulster Scot would sooner...

    LEVI 507xx JACKET w/17 button. Are these Early repro??

    a bit of advice from all you denimistas wanted here! Over the years I have seen several Big E Levi items on ebay that appeared old, and were described as genuine vintage, but somehow didn't look "right" to me - something about the look of the denim itself rather than the cut made me uneasy...
