British Army espadrilles?!?!?!? Did they mention if they'd be getting any in small sizes?? These have seriously been on my wanted list for as long as i can remember. Second only to LE espadrilles.
A new vintage shop has opened in Crystal Palace (called Crystal Palace Vintage). It's on Westow Street and is open Thursday to Sunday.
They have got loads of menswear in there, including a few good pieces. Of particular note is a ginger, three-button, Harris Tweed jacket (about size 40) that I would guess dates from the 1940s. It is in fantastic condition. It's about £70. If anyone is interested, I will see if I can get photos and measurements.
Levisons has a pair of deadstock espadrilles (size 10) that were apparantly made for the British Army (circa 1930s/1940s). I don't know much about the more curious end of military wear from that period so i can't be certain about the background. They were priced at £55 and they are expecting to get some more in a selection of sizes. I know it's an odd one but there might be someone reading this who thinks "fantastic! just what i need!"

pics would be nice just off an iPhone whatever.
Vintage basement on Cheshire street has a CC41 labelled lambourne tweed jacket (about size 40) only £25. It has a bit of mothing, but might be worth fixing for someone who wants a nice CC41 tweed jkt.
