I’ve got a Lewis leathers dominator jacket and i have no problem with the gold logo as it was on the original ones too. I mean everyone is happy to wear good old vintage Levis and they’ve all got visible tabs on the pockets and on the jeans visible leather back labels. I guess its a totally...

My memory of the mid 70s is that the jacket Bowie is wearing in these pics was being worn by everyone at the time. A kind of Bay City Roller look. All my mates had these big collared short black leather jackets with wool knits etc. which you wore with high waist bags and stack heels.

I guess the question is whether the standard Belstaff waxed motorcycle jacket is twice as good quality as the Barbour international seeing as it's twice the price.

I wear it as a motorcycle jacket, its brilliant for the job as I'm not a racer just a plodder and it looks pretty cool too IMO.

I got some clothes online from oi polloi and end clothing, both UK based companies, and I bought them using an English visa card and got them posted to Australia and they knocked off the VAT automatically. In fact the VAT-free outside the EU price is listed when you view the item. They had free...

I personally can't imagine anyone actually wanting to buy a jacket with rubber mud on it, unless for a Steve McQueen museum I suppose. However, I'm really happy aero, lost worlds, lewis leathers etc still make their jackets as I don't like synthetic materials and love natural materials like...

I'm interested in opinions on the Barbour Steve McQueen MacGrain jacket that comes complete with rubber reproduction mud on it? http://www.endclothing.co.uk/barbour-steve-mcqueen-macgrain-jacket.html No need to even go outside to get the cool look with this item.

The marketplace for exploiting the post war rebel look is becoming crowded, seems like Eastman has decided to chase the Mr Freedom, RRL, Dice Magazine crowd. Makes being original kind of hard these days when anything 'cool' is immediately jumped on and marketed .
