A beautiful 1930s eight panel to play off my new 40s pleated tie.

I have just ordered one of these beauties from Simon James Cathcart:

I met Simon last week and he was wearing one. The denim holds its shape better than any cap I've really seen before. That helps to give it a great period feel. And it's made by Barry Simonds (who you all know). Top style and top capmaker. Simon's only offering 25 of these in this style so, if you like it, it's worth snapping one up.

He's also offering these styles in the same fabric:

I hope Simon gets lots of orders since every order will help support a project that is going to be very good for those among us looking for top-quality vintage-style clothing.

I finally got the four-panel newsboy I've been tinkering with for months into gear. 'The Clover', in two different fabrics - a 1940's herringbone stripe and a 1920's barleycorn tweed.

Just got my Simonds cap.

It's made in Japan Kaihara denim vintage indigo 12 oz.

I love it!

The suede goes well with my Oakley leather Mars!

Thanks Tonya and Barry!
