Definitely not a replica. It smelled like old wool when I found it at the thrift store years ago. 

just messing

Might as well add this here. My pocket flap shape is different. Not an expert, but it certainly appears vintage.

Not sure if this is the right place for this. A buddy has a bunch of scrap fabrics from an estate sale. Some of it is selvedge. I’m assuming the red line is Levi’s, but can anyone ID the green and yellow one?

So... bumping on old favourite thread with an old favourite thread 

20 years old in December, this Stereophonics t-shirt has been there and come back, on more than one occasion. Bought when l went to see them in the millennium stadium in Cardiff in 2002. The only 'band' tee l bought that l went to see ever, apart from the Waterboys waay back in '88.

Great quality shirt which is still a regular wearer.

Sure some of you guys have even older tees that you can't let go of... ? If so, let's see 'em!

Ive just been having a rummage around for rucky's to take on holiday and found a few pairs of vintage 90's era Stussy sunglasses in the pockets

Early 90s

Mid 90s

Both cases were padded foam but hydrolysis has turned the PU to powder

..makes me glad i sold the collection of AJ's

Yes yes, although l was a bit on the fence on that one. Much preferred the earlier stuff.

[MJF9]

Yep agree, earlier stuff was better but they put on a good show 

Turns out I saw them at The Royal Court Liverpool 4th March 89

I saw them at a festy but christ knows which one. Different person/circumstances back then. I may even have the year wrong 

[silencejoe]

Been a while, wish everyone is ok here 

Got this 506xx awhile back too sad that the size is too small like 34 

 

[Dr_Heech]

Pleat-box stitching has taken a battering. Reminds me of my Csf jacket.

 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

You can send them to me

[smoothsailor]

Anyone remember these? Roots

someone on my television mentioned these. Googled them immediately and had some good memories. Even though I had knock offs

 

[Spiraltoy]

Found this online and can unfortunately not get any more pics. Can any of you date this type 3 solely on the patch?

[Facini]

IIRC, care tags didn't become a thing until the 70s so around then would my guess. Someone probably know when they came about specifically. They still made good jackets in the 70s imo.

@Facini cheers.

Yeah, 68-83 for that type of tag I believe. That’s ok I guess but I would jump on that jacket in a sec If it was of the earlier years. 80’s still don’t feel vintage for me, even if it is nowadays.

[Facini]

From what I've seen, i'd probably guess that this jacket falls in the earlier part of that age range - newer labels seem more inconsistent somehow - different types and such. 
 

There is for sure a difference in denim and also fit, but if i had a hole in my collection and a, say, '78 jacket came up in the right size and price - I'd jump for it anyway. I really do love the way these jackets fit. From the 557 to the later 70505-0217s. None of the more contemporary jackets (post 83 and repro) that I've tried have nailed the old Type III fit without going for the good ol' "Modernization" of making it longer in the body...

If you are in the market for a Late 69/71 big E in a 42ish size, i could probably help you out, though. I think I've outgrown mine.

Absolutely love this 

[silencejoe]

Got this 30s or 40s sport jacket 

Too bad the zipper is missing

 

[Duke Mantee]

Should be able to get that fixed I’d imagine

Anyone familiar with Black bear brand? 
Claimed to be an 60s specimen.

[spidereye]

50s Swedish motorcycle jacket in the original goatskin&wool spec, pretty good deal for what it is.
