Needing advice on what to go for? Then stick it all in the Kickback Fashion Thread. I'll start the ball rolling with my latest purchase. £29 from the John Smedley outlet.

Bridge of Djoum Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I'm very into sneakers, (Ok, trainers) mainly adidas originals, however, recently I've branched out into newer brands... 1st pair are OPP, a French brand, 2nd are On Cloud, Swiss.

Sawdust Caesar Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I got an unexpected, smallish, windfall so treated myself to some Burgundy Bass Weejuns. And got my mod on with a 60s style cardi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozi Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I am about 20 years too late for this. Though I had scruffy hair, a beard and a love for vinyl so have unwittingly became all things trendy.......i hate it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that price probably one of their south sea cotton jobs. The wool stuff is still very much their premium line. Worth it though, timeless and very well made so lasts for years.

Picked up a few knitted polos in the last year. Been very impressed with M&S's merino wool polos. Also managed to pick up a cream one like Jimmy's in Quadrophenia, bigger collar on.

GlasgoJambo Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Not fashion as such but I recently undertook a semi bulk purchase of socks from Thought. Comfort>fashion. It’s an age thing. https://www.wearethought.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey - whaddayou care, huh...??? Yeah, it is similar to what wiseguys wore, Ray Liotta wore a stripey cardi in Goodfellas. I don't mind that comparison, much better than the other one I get which is Howard Wolowitz. 34 minutes ago, Salad Fingers said: Very smart. Where's the cardi from.

They do have some cracking John Smedley gear but it's way out of my price range, £160 for some knitted polos. Also their material is too fine, accentuates my moobs.

I have taken to wearing a tight t shirt ubder some of my tops. I actually got one of the Madcap cardis from atom. Lovely mustard and black with a suede stripe down the front.

Morgan Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Can’t resist trainers. Currently own 23 pairs (I think), 22 of them Adidas (I think). And really good t-shirts Cool as eggs, me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazio Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I've just bought a Barbour jacket for the forthcoming splendid weather. Not one of your rugby watching type ones though, they have a separate clothing line called Barbour International that is based on old motorbike gear. The same sort of idea as some of the Belstaff stuff but without prices that make you sob yourself to sleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today Im rocking a Scotland rugby shirt by Cotton Traders at Dobbies I think. Trousers from the Tu collection at Sainsburys and a pair of trainers by Quechua at Decathlon. Socks by Sainsburys also. The above shall be accesorised by a £30 watch by Sekonda from I cant recall where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Internet Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I pretty much wear the same stuff year round. Get majority of my clothes (basically jackets and jeans which is what I replace most often) from Debenhams and occasionally m&s. Collapse of the high street is starting to worry me really. Also on my third pair of quechua trainers from decathlon. £10 a time and last ages tend to stock up polo shirts when I'm in America at Ralph Lauren, us polo outlets and the like.

Der Kaiser Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I generally kit my kids out before worrying about me. Keep ordering them nice stuff from M&M Direct while I wear T-shirts with more holes than the Scotland defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 My latest obsession is to get a top quality horsehide leather jacket. Either front quarter or Vicenza horsehide from Aero Leathers or maybe an Eastman. Bum dropping cost but it's happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
