Fashion

Firmly in the middle-aged-dad fashion bracket, I wear one of these Panama Outback hats:

Had to buy it from the US, as they are the only people that have 63cm hat sizes

I got a panama a couple of years ago, i just don't spend enough time in linen shirts and shorts to wear it very often.

Strong game.

Can any one recommend a Black chore / work jacket that won't break the bank?? Or best to go 2nd hand.

I've got a black Le Laboureur that I need to sell if you happen to need a small size? I really like it but just don't wear it enough to justify keeping it. Would recommend.

vans?

@ltc im an xl unfortunately ill check out the site though
@dancing  ta wouldn't have thought to look at vans that's quite nice too

I was buying a summer shirt and coordinating plastic shoes and noticed the chore coat. As I already have a Filson one I don’t need another but it looked simple and good value.

Usually I am fairly sedate in my clothing choices but thought fuck it and went colourful for hopefully post lockdown bbq and pizza parties.

that shirt is great, plastic shoes not my cup of tea but hope you went pink ones coz they are the bestist ones

I already have the green shoes, perfect alternative to crocs for gardening etc, so ordered the pink as they have swirly bits.

thumbs up jpg :)

Look into the Bundeswehr moleskin shirts, super durable all cotton goodness.

I haven't treated myself to much clothing in the last year cause ya know.. I don't go outside. Anyway. My wife got me an EG shirt I had seen that I liked. A bit garish online but really lovely in person. Really fun for the summer IMO and just so well made compared to your bog standard Oxford. The cloth is looooooooovely.

London fancy garish summer shirts

That’s good!

@withered_preacher thanks will check
@JB strong look . really nice. im envious as i get nervous about wearing anything slightly above beige

Really like that. Sold out everywhere I find it though :(

Seen it somewhere for sale?

I like mine a lot, seems well made and nice and simple. In fact, I think I'll probably just keep it...

This is nice, any idea what it's called?

Le Laboureur

quality is fantastic

Why of course. It's an Engineered Garments Workaday BD Shirt. I am afraid I can't find any UK stockists though. Nepenthes London don't have an SS21 Workaday delivery yet, only standard EG stuff.

Link here to Nepenthes NY anyway: https://nepenthesny.com/collections/workaday/products/bd-shirt-combo-royal-cp-oxford

Kafka have the other colours, though: https://www.kafkamercantile.com/uk/browse/Mens/b-EngineeredGarmentsWKDY-600/

I feel you. My wife ordered a large as well. I'd have ordered a medium, personally as I knew they are oversized, so it's extremely oversized. Tbh I've really learnt to just not care what people think of how I'm dressed. I saw a guy with a full on monk haircut the other day so I'm pretty casual by comparison. He was probably 25 - ha.

Nice take on a classic fun shirt

Echoing this, super nice cap and would love to find somewhere selling it. Some similarities to a Rapha city range cap I had a few years back but much less cycling cap and more usable for daily life

Cheers!
