To compliment the nice sketch posted by our Inspector, and since today is menacing to rain dogs and cats, here's my raincoat.
Aquascutum (with at least 100% cotton lining), courtesy of a gentleman who thought it was too big on him and put it on ebay for a mere £ 50 - new.

Just back from late-season beach trip.

Drake's linen shirt and Brioni linen pants with C&J loafers.



Added Ikiji sweater from NMWA when it cooled down at night.



Mostly did this:

I went to a couple of shops to see their new collections.
Uniqlo U: nothing of real interest apart a Techwear jacket and UU selvedge jeans that have a nice cut and are well tapered.
Fred Perry : i wanted to see their new MiE waxed Harrington. NICE STUFF ! But i was interested with the Red one and they only had the one in Olive Drab. TARTAN showing on the lapels on the contrary to their classic model...

My latest acquisition (Air Jordan 1 low)

Hey guys... I can't only wear Baracutas and Brogues !

 

[cerneabbas]

Your new brogues are damn nice ! I like the colour and leather.
They pair well with the check trousers too.
