Clobber - a clothes thread

Used to love my Japanese denim, but sold the lot about 12 months ago.

Fatigues have taken their place in my wardrobe.

Yeah, i have a few pairs of lovely vintage fatigues. Apair of OG107’s from 1953 which are the softest, most sumotous pair I’ve ever owned, and a pair of original P42 reversible HBT camo fatigues.

Scored these for £15 a few weeks back too, which was a touch.

Love the Amnesia pyramid one, would be all over that had I not started a new job last week and won’t get paid until the end of October…

Lovely stuff.

Big fan of fatigues and can’t imagine wearing anything else day to day :+1:

£80 for a T shirt though, I couldn’t get myself to justify that much.

JBO tees and sweats back up for pre-order, but I’m finding the £45 plus £7 postage a turn off. Shame.

I’m not against this paying £45-50 for a good quality screenprinted tee… maybe these are worth extra pennies.

Maybe you folks can help me. Slightly obsessed with a particular style of indigo/ticking stripe workshirt I’ve seen around, it has a bib panel in front, 3 buttons and a grandad collar I think. Problem is I can’t track one down since I have no idea what it’s called. But I wants it.

A bib-front Henley?

Maybe not this colour, but this style?

That looks really close, thank you, opens up a new rabbit hole for me

Whenever I’ve bought them in the past the fabric has been pretty flimsy. Also need to buy a size up they are teeny after one wash. Ended up giving them to the kids!

Yeah you’re right mate, they did come up small

I am… it’s a rip off for something that costs a few pounds to make. They’re not a designer product. It’s unjustified. No basic record label/magazine type tee should ever be over £25

I think @Apiento pitches it just right with the Test Pressing merch.

Heading to London in a few weeks. Any recent finds / recommendations / tips on where to head for clobber, second hand or otherwise? Scandi brands are pretty accessible where I’m based so mainly interested in UK - Japanese - US stuff.

Kristina Records in Hackney has an excellent second hand clothes section, I was in there yesterday and bought a couple of things.

They had loads of Beams Plus, plus Battenwear and Stussy amongst loads of other brands.

Great records, coffee and pastries too.

This is the thing I’ve been most complimented on recently.

It’s a fucking scarf…
