actually no, either on the internet nor on the streets. in berlin there are only very few people sharing love for heritage, workwear related clothes, though there a shops like burg&schild, dc4 etc.

My older brother has the same cardigan, and he's not even vaguely into workwear - North Sea Clothing has plenty of fans here, way outside the workwear dudes.

Doesn’t surprise me- you see it ever so often here, funny thing, the most random comments, bank tellers People in the grocery store, I got ( I like your shirt from over 30 people) It was the red and white Henley from LVC, a 1880’s reproduction from one of our mining trips. In second place, the most compliments went to a reversible ghost-skater hoodie I used to wear years ago. Killer b- I might be wrong, but that cardigan look seems very English to me?

I guess we're a pretty cardiganed nation. It does get cold here.

This catalog is missing its cover, late teens? Probably 20's? More cardigans |

It's always hard to judge the prices from something a hundred years ago but average wages for ordinary hourly workers in the early 20s varied from $35 to $45 a week (48 hour weeks) for union employees. More for foremen and the like and probably a lot less for non-union workers and for those who received compensation in the form of housing and meals (loggers, for instance). But except, I guess, for union fees, there were no deductions at all. Wages also varied by region. They weren't much higher when I was born in 1946. Currently, I'd say that average hourly wages are on the low side, compared to prices.
I might note that many of those boot styles were still available in 1970.
