Look nice them Neal I'm having a rock n roll night in 😉 I get the chilli chocolate from a fella who has a chilli shop selling all kinds of stuff up and down the chilli scale in there. I go periodically and buy different flavours each time... dark, milk, sea salt etc... each time he tells me the flavour I buy is 'his favourite flavour ever'... I never have the heart to pull him up on this such is his enthusiasm for his interests... I bet he'd like Sufu

@knucks thanks but can't see that either. It's ok, no drama.

^ can't see the pic in the UK unfortunately

Can't remember Bukta but remember Duffer well as I used to wear it a lot in from '90 to maybe '93, bought from Everton and Umberto who owned and ran the original Hip in Leeds. Would love to see the photos @Maynard Friedman if you manage to dig them out. Do post your tracky too if you find one @bod

Yeah you have a valid complaint. If you keep them, you should be able to reduce, or possibly remove, the creases if you turn them inside out and steam iron them, before and even after washing

@smoothsailor I think the 161, 162 and 147 are standard items they have in regularly. Best to shoot Isao an email to see what stock they have. Have you got his email address? I can pass it across if not mate

Are the jeans Canes Julian? Look good... which model?

... who added them to his collection of pumps from Flash, Geeman, Maynard... and whose collection will not be completed until he has at least one pair of pumps from every Sufu member who wears a UK size 8... OK I made that last bit up... but given the idiosyncrasies on Sufu, no one would bat an eyelid if it were true

I had the same thought as @beautiful_FrEaK on the SCSC naming being after original collectibles... but I do get an urge with these to get, collect even, the full sets. I should have bought the '46 tux in hindsight at the get-go and then later when I had a chance on Yahoo. I think the '43 tux in particular is great - the fit works for me, the jacket length is just right and the jeans are so easy to wear, aside from the other features and nice denim. The '45 jeans took me a bit by surprise though as they are spacious in the top block but then slim through the knee to the hem. By the time I get around to wearing them, I'm sure it'll be fine. I see they are appearing on Yahoo for a pretty penny - seems OTT - suppose they are only on sale for that... be interesting to see what they actually go for 1945 set up in good sizes 1942 jeans

Nice shorts lads but what's up with you all hanging out in shorts when it's below 0C (UK at least)... oh hang on tomorrow looks more like shorts weather 😉

5 year old has decaf... or 5 year old has a non-decaf double espresso and Geeman will be peddling like fook to catch him on his tricycle... either way is good holiday fun The cycle path by the beach is proper leisurely.... there's non of this dodging Range Rover drivers with one hand on the wheel with the other on their M&S sandwich as they look for a free parking space around Mam Tor Neal

It's been a while since I went mate Hire bikes and cycle along the beachside cycle path - safe and steady away Nomad Coffee Roasters (they have a few roasteries and cafes, top notch coffee)

@CSL lovely place... and you can play music as loud as you want and have the tv on maximum volume without fear of upsetting the neighbours 👍👍

Rumours about they are going big into Retro... heads up Wayne... their top aquisition target is some place called Superfuture 😉

... with the tv on maximum volume...

@Maynard Friedman yours too Marrin - we should know - happy birthday!! Do you even celebrate at your grand old ages lads? 😜 I'm sure you do - all the best!!

Same down our way... if you pile loads up they make decent goals too

New brown boots MUST have a matching leather belt Top class work from our very own @Duke Mantee in picking the belt leather to match the boots and a great job all around... very happy he picked this one up for me The boots: Brother Bridge Henry in brown cow "Vachetta" leather, a particular method of veg tan exclusive to Tuscany - lot of animal fat is added to the leather so it's super supple and succulent (as Mike told me) The belt: Walpier Buttero leather in ‘foresta’... equally juicy leather, buckle fastened with dark brown stitching, keeping the look minimal; Duke gave the buckle a chemical wash to avoid the shiny-new-belt look and add to the patina; 1.25 inch as I like the slimmer belts these days

^ from the At Last thread... I think you've posted more exhaustive lists and pics of Nike trainers, but the book has these @Double 0 Soul ... and a Head bag for @Maynard Friedman as, unless I've dreamt it, we had a chat many moons ago on here about these...

Takes me back... Diamond (Argyle) Pringle with Lois back in the day (or Farah for school wear), either sporting Adidas shoes (Corsica) or Trimm Trab... classic top scally combos Reminded me I got a book called Counter Culture last year from some scouse fellas which documents their story with casual clobber from the early 80s with examples they had kept or sourced (fair play as that's an achievement for c 40 years ago). It's a beast of a book, weighing in at 4.5kg no less. There's opinion in, and why not, plenty of nostalgia and a lot of it resonates with my early 80s - 90s memories and thoughts. Stoked up memories of gear I had (and wore to death) or had coveted. I've been meaning to post some photos from it for ages... here's a few related to the Argyle, scally clobber chit chat...

@Dr_Heech Happy Birthday matey!!

^ cheers pal... yeah it's nice and warm... I wear a long sleeved tee-shirt under too to avoid wool on skin It's under At Last, surprisingly

Argyle pullover sweater... grandpa core vibes
