    1940s CC41 British Double Breasted Suit. 38R.

    Hello all, Here is a genuine CC41 British suit, from the rationing era. It has hardly any wear, but does have a few moth holes, which are detailed in the photos. The CC41 label has seemingly been chopped at, but it is evident what it is. The suit's manufacturer was 'Burleigh'. Looking for £300...

    Collection of photographs of British men, c.1900-1960. Suits, trousers, shoes etc.

    Hello all, Came across this collection of photo's the other week, and they're really quite interesting. I really like to see photo's of real people wearing clothes, rather than movie stars or catalogue illustrations. Apologies if they're a bit fuzzy, they are just amateur snaps after all. I...

    Thread to display you collarless/tunic/Grandad shirts

    Hello all, I was assured by some that such a thread doesn't exist, so I'll make one! What we're talking about here are shirts that are meant to be worn with a separate, detachable collar. Other features include bib-fronts, pullover (doesn't button all the way down), butterfly hems at the...

    Show us your Terylene/Dacron ties!

    Although not necessarily 'true' vintage, Terylene ties came about in the 1950s and were still made into the 1960s, when other variants of polyester fibre started to be introduced. They were a modest alternative to silk or wool, and had a brief period of popularity. I for one love Terylene...

    Chester Cordite - anyone had experience with them?

    http://www.chestercordite.com/ I came across this company a while ago. Their stuff looks pretty good, although there are a few details I'm not a fan of (belt loops etc. and I'm not sure about the trouser rise) and the price isn't too bad. Has anyone had one of their suits before? I've emailed...

    British RAF DB Belted Wool Raincoat

    Hello Ladies and Gents, This is a typical RAF mac, with original belt. Not sure how old, but I'd say probably at least 40 years, and has the classic styling. Measurements are in the pictures, but I'd say it fits a 38-40" chest (with a jacket underneath) and the sleeves are fairly long...

    Spencer's Trousers (UK). Any good?

    Hello Loungers, Sorry if this is a topic that's already been discussed (I did a quick search but couldn't find anything) but have any of you ever ordered trousers from Spencer's in Yorkshire? - http://spencers-trousers.com/ I emailed them and they seem happy to do the details I want (high...

    Show us your Munrospun, Braespun, Lochmarl etc. Ties!

    I am a big fan of the Munrospun style of woven tie - there's so much depth of colour, and even what appears to be the plainest weave at first glance shows a myriad of colours upon further inspection. So please show us what you've got! Here are a couple of my favourites as examples to get the...
