    They have become my default go to clothing brand.

    Mackinaw wool jacket, warm, loads of pockets (including a poachers pocket that can take a laptop or iPad) not changed in design in a hundred years and can keep out pretty serious rain for a while.

    Tin cloth jacket - hard as fucking nails, similar great pockets. Get the liner and you have something that is warm, waterproof and durable.

    The wildfowl hat - made of the same tin cloth with wool lining. It is super practical, warm but of questionable aesthetics, but what do you expect of a hat that has drop down earmuffs that then turns into a hood. But lots of people keep commenting on how warm/practical it looks. And fuck it, when a storm is lashing down being warm and dry beats looking a little bit weird.

  • i have basically gone full redneck, but when out on my tractor it sort of feels right

    dickies overalls with knee pads for grubby stuff. filson for day to day, its rugged, but has that look and feel of quality, paired with jeans or chinos and redwing boots or veldtschoen and I can look reasonably smart, it also tends to age well.

    thankfully my wife quite likes their stuff too, i picked up a brand new mackinaw cruiser jacket for £200 and it turns out she had been considering buying me one for xmas
