Best Repro workwear: Sugar Cane and Buzz Rickson. Tho I gotta say, the positive aspect of the current workwear fad is places like J Crew make some nice stuff! so it's more accessable...

Advice Please

I've been offered £25 for this workwear shirt from a Japanese buyer, do you think this is a fair offer? I would really appreciate your advice.

 

[Lefty]

Wait it out. I've been in your situation, and unless the offer truly floors you, you'll do better.

 

[poggleberry]

Thanks for the advice Lefty

Wait it out. I've been in your situation, and unless the offer truly floors you, you'll do better.

Maybe even from the same Japanese buyer once you turn down offer #1 . . .

 

[mattfink]

I would wait....

Ralph Lauren's first interview in 20 years on today's Oprah, taking place inside the Double RL ranch.
I'm not an Oprah fan but I may have to try and watch that.

I never caught the episode, but there a couple of clips online:

Can anybody help me locate this cap?

It seems to be sold out everywhere.

 

[mattfink]

Good luck Flat Top...that's a killer!

Anyone own a pair of these Dickies "Detroit" 874s? They're made in the USA and are being promoted as a Detroit booster. Are they actually made in Detroit?

I bought a pair of regular 874s recently on super-rock-bottom closeout from a Dickies outlet store that was closing, and I really like them.

Man, I think that one poorly lit photo (US Army pants) is pretty poor when you are asking $300+ for a pair of jeans. I'm sure they are killer though...the Lion pant looks fantastic!

Found a cool striped workshirt with a great pocket at the thrift shop today. By "Bugle Boy", of all companies. They went out of business in 2001. Had to cut off a lot of lame patches with their name on it, but with all that gone (and maybe with the buttons replaced)- not a bad shirt, especially not for $4.

Dickies 1922 Work-wear

Has anyone else seen this? Dickies seems to be putting out copies of their 1922 work-wear. I don't know enough about vintage style to know if this is the real mccoy or what.

[SGT Rocket]

Yikes! I just saw the price. Holy Cow!!!!! It's not for the workman. :-(

 

[W4ASZ]

They claim "authentic" so I would guess so. Thank you for pointing this out !



Now to rob a bank !!! :eeek:

 

[Mahagonny Bill]

Hipsters will buy it because it's ironic to spend $200.00 on a pair of Dickies.
