an english store that sells a lot of skinhead kit for very good prices, and looks like they ship outside UK as well. Have heard good things about their harringtons, and all jackets are UK made
Britac....I only own one so my opinion is just based on that one shirt, they might have differing qualities of cloth (like DNA Groove uses shirting cloths that are slightly different from each other, but all high quality) the fit is a bit weird, it's a slim fit thru the chest and shoulders, but the torso is kind of big in proportion. (good for skinny guy with beer gut?) I got a size med and had the shirt body taken in, and I'd say the chest measures on the smaller side of Med. The fabric itself isnt the greatest, a bit hard feeling. They do have great choice in checks and colors tho, probably the best of any brand out there. It was def worth a punt back when the Euro dropped a lot against the dollar (earlier this year) and I think I got my shirt for about $65 shipped or something like that. For the money I'd buy JtG for normal daily shirts, and pay a bit more for DNA Groove for a nicer more refined shirt with better materials and finish. as far as buttons falling off, mine havent, but then I have shirts that brag about buttons being "handsewn in the USA" that have repeatedly fallen off, one particular shirt had 2 buttons fall off after 1 wear, on its first wash. If that's what "handsewn in the USA" gets you, I think I prefer machine sewn in China.
Anyone aware of any soul/ska/reggae clubs or events in the NYC area?
^^ the only regular 'do I know of in NYC is subway soul, takes place 3rd friday of each month. Seems like there are more events in Williamsburg/Brooklyn than Manhattan.
Lemme ask a buddy who lives in Brooklyn. He doesn't get out much himself (he's a night-time EMT for FDNY) but he knows things.
Keep hitting up Dolanite Presents for the dos they put on, which are once or twice a month.
Otto's Shrunken Head in Manhattan (538 E. 14th St) has a weekly reggae/ska/soul night on Thursdays hosted by DJ Agent Jay (of the Slackers fame). They also have other stuff here and there, check out their calendar
I'll let you know if I think of more.
