Mod to Suedehead

I heard rumor that the buttondown Miles Davis was wearing on the sleeve was actually recolored and not originally that green color.
Been looking for a good Milestones OCBD for years, too.

Didn’t Claudio have one going? DNA Groove?

I’m not that bothered myself but I’m sure someone was doing a faithful copy.

Yeah those are very nice but they don’t fit my body type.

Been after a 'Milestones' green BD for a while. Found a Made in England St Michael one for sale and bought it. Unfortunately not flat green oxford, but a sort of tonic-ish/sharkskin.

It'll do for now.

Well, I say 'for now'. Just picked this one up

It was only £12.50/$16. If it doesn't fit nice..so what ?
Knowing my luck, the photos aren't accurate, and instead of green, it's actually kinda blue.

Maybe that’s who it was, I know so wine was doing a near faithful copy. I have a few Kamakura shirts and really like them. Price v quality about right. Used to love snooping round their shop whenever I was in New York on Madison Avenue near a lot of other good menswear places but unfortunately it’s no longer there. They also used to have one in SoHo New York too. An example of their customer service - I tried on a shirt there which I liked but didn’t like the spread collar. They said they had the exact same one in the SoHo shop as a BD. They got someone to drive it up in 30 minutes during rush hour!

A few alternative versions here.
l always imagined that he would have been wearing loafers, but looks like chukka boots.
Nice legs as well!

Which one was actually the correct colour?

 

[Inkss]

This I reckon

Haha - funny to think of fans of Ivy gear agonizing over where to get the exact correct shade of Milestones light green BD when in reality it may never have existed beyond the imagination of the colourist doing the graphics!

Not sure it goes well anyway with your English skin tone guys 🤭

BTW Still smoking gitanes Inks ? Bad for your health. I quit one and a half year ago.

After all maybe the colour could suit you @Inkss, if you first get a nice sun tan 😉

Me also.
