Ah, desert boots. It's like living in 1995 all over again.


And... ?

Anyone have any recommendations for good clean cut harrington jackets? or any other similar casual jackets.

Slim fit would be preferable + not particularly keen on elasticated cuffs/waist, or anything that buldges out around the middle like some sort of puffy bomber jacket.

I got this the other day, great little jacket. Normally a size small, but ordered a medium and the fit is perfect, great quality material as well.
Opinions on this watch?



Full automatic movement, crocodile leather strap. Lifetime guarantee as well with Rotary. Was £425 but I can get it for about £170. Would work well casually and with a suit imo.

how do pull&bear t-shirts fit? I ordered a gillet a while back in medium (my standard size) but it seems like their stuff normally fits small?

I have one t shirt from there in size small , feels like a slim fit t shirt but not too tight. Pretty impressed with what i've had from there so far, I'd get a size bigger for a jacket though. Small is 36 chest, Medium is 38.

Bloody hell didn't realise Jones' was so expensive :lolwut: I never let Loakes infect my feet though :colondollar: Looks like I might have to just try and wait for the summer sales nd try and find a decent shoe makers that happen to have them :sigh:

They look great. Pretty much everything they sell does to, where is this store/brand located? I've never heard of it before.


Thanks man. COS only turned 5 this month, I worked for them for 3 years also so was nice to go back in and spend bit of cash that I don't usually have! They've about 6/7 stores in London, Brighton, Birmingham, Glasgow and Dublin. Mancs has a ladieswear dept at Selfridges but no menswear as yet. They really do have pretty good collections, it's reasonably priced and good quality also.

I've been after some oxblood/burgundy-ish loafers too but with a more casual sole with just a saddle, no tassel or fringe. Very specific and I'm yet to find it :/. Might end up getting some driving shoes I think. I'm actively avoiding boat shoes!

Really tempted by this Baracuta harrington, opinions?

Looks decent, I'd personally go for a beige/navy/black for a harrington though (saying that, I did originally want a red one...).

Picked up http://www.baracuta-g9.com/sale/B3381G9/5051235289185/f bargain price imo and made in England.

Just make sure whatever you get is either G9 Slim or vintage fit (which is infact the slimmest one). Original is far too baggy.

COS is the premium division of H&M.
There should be one in all major towns.

Great clothes and quality; has Jil-Sanders look about it.

Am I missing something? It looks like a limited collection of mostly dull clothing.

Their website is rubbish and usually has only a small selection of clothes. Their stores are much better.
