Cycle clothes: the new look

i'm fully up for this, pending confirmation of a date.

Likewise, need to make some caps first. I'm in Sheffield but would definitely come down for some tweed on stead action.

so a few days of trolling every single vintage shop in london has produced this:

now all i need is a decent pair of old school cycling shoes. and a reason to wear them... ride, anyone?

Decent?
Old?
School?
Cycling?
Shoes?

Done.

to be honest if that is the shop that advertises itself with the white bike then don't bother telling them about what it means.

I popped in and had a friendly word ages ago and they denied all knowledge and said they would do something about it.

later I discovered I was not the first to alert them to its significance.

does tour de ville have old cycling shoes? cool, i'll drop by this week.

James: read my post in the thread. I try to explain why nothing happened.
And we have a decent number of staff, and no staff meetings. We pass things like that up and not accross if you see what I mean.

oooh and ride. Yes please.

Teddy: Ultra sharp.
Alas I cant can not follow you.
I'd look like a shit version of Cwiss Eubank

Posted in the tweed ride thread, but just in case..Can those who've ordered a cap pm me your address please. Just to stop the confusion in my little brain.
Caps will be finished off tomorrow and posted out.

Cheers.

try trackbikeshop.dk

there is a link to a guy in germany who manufactures his own cycling shoes.

I got my hat from the Bonk today, its amazing and has received many compliments in my lunch break.

Really beautiful hat, impeccably made and prompt delivery.

Hats off to The Bonk.

I say!
Spot on old bean. Reminds me of my youth.

The Bonk - You are a frickin' LEGEND.
Got my head piece this morning. What a fit! And that purple tweed is something else.
I love the fact that it's handmade, and that it's got a personal touch too. You didn't muck around either did you?
Quality through and through.
Thanks a million

I'm yet to receive my hat but that's because I'm not at the address it was posted to.. Hopefully when I head back to London tomorrow morning it'll be waiting for me (or at least the postie's slip because I don't think any of my housemates were in)

Also, if you want more custom Bonk, I'm sure you'll get more from opening a dedicated thread in the classified & shopping section..

I too had a nice suprise in the post when I arrived home, a lovely handmade,silk lined cap. The only issue is that after wearing it for 5 mins Sarah claimed it as hers, so I will be having to place a second order to the Bonk (although for a prettier head)
see you out there...

Thanks very much gents. It was a pleasure. Looking forward to meeting you in the flesh.

Indeed, I'm a little late in heaping on the praise, but fuck me the caps are spiffing (especially the pink in the lining!). There will be a second order going in soon enough, but will most likely have to wait until I'm back from Americaland. +1 on the starting a thread in classifieds and shopping

Well, I'm back in London and found my cap waiting for me on the doorstep..

Amazing! It really is top quality.. Can't recommend them enough!

"Use your head! Choose Hudson's"

Mine arrived yesterday and is a bobby dazzler. Off into town now to give it an airing.

Thanks Mr Bonk and looking forward to seeing you on the run!

If I have a 57 noggin what size would you recommend; I'd really like the purple. Thanks

No purple left I'm afraid. I can make you one from another fabric, if you like? I can make one with some elastic in, so you get a nice snug fit.
