Is this a wool mackinaw? I know a lot of people are scared to do it but I have had nothing but success over the years just soaking in a tub of cool water with some Bronners or you choice of mild soap, something you won't need to really work hard to rinse out, just gentle pressing with hands. The true destruction to the old wool stuff comes from heat and agitation. Then just lay flat to dry. I hear you on the sleeve problem, never found one that was long enough. |

Well, just let both your gender personalities wear matching clothes. Alternatively ask Mrs B to join in!

When I opened up the link, I was concerned there might be a lot of stomach-churning pastels. Their colour choices look great, however, and I'm willing to bet quite a bit of the look is down to one of them being a "seamster."
One thing's for sure: she knows how to rock the cropped trousers look. I've got my own cropped trousers sewing draft on repeat because it always looks fresh. One of these days, when I have a nice block of time off from work, I'd like to stitch up a pair using some red denim I got a few years back. In my dreams, I'd possess a proper industrial Juki machine to get closer to the right look. Hurray for sartorialist sweethearts! |

Craigslist ad for 90 Levi's tags. Seller says they are from the late 70s onward.
Not my post, for the record. |

Always fun to watch a sold out brand clutching at straws.
For many decades Barbour managed to stay small and sell to country folks who always had dosh to spend and was guaranteed repeat business when their old gear was fucked. Then they expanded and sold 'heritage' to fashionistas (you only get one pop at this) then passe dog walkers, and now what for the 'town and country' brand? hmm.. err.. Marvel at the quality |

Damn, that's horrid. Such a bummer, Barbour used to be great. The owner of North Sea Clothing has a super cool vintage Barbour collection. There's a better article somewhere i can't seem to fined but there's some of it here.

I have a Barbour Bedale jacket that is almost 20 years old and it is still top notch. I have re-waxed it once or twice.
I don't think Barbour had anything to do with that B&D embroidery.
