Re: Steve McQueen's Style: Pants
From looking at Claxton's book more, McQueen had the exact same pair of the same cords in what looks to be a darker brown as well. I also have some photos that I had found, which were also taken by Claxton but didn't make his book, that show him in yet another pair in a different color. Seems to me that he liked them quite a bit.
Sometime over the summer I will hopefully have a couple pair made. Will let you guys know if I do and would post pics as well.
Cheers Gents

Re: Steve McQueen's Style: Pants
fxh - if you go for a wander when in Tokyo see if that place still sell the cords. Tbh, I wish I had known a bit more about the shops in Japan when I went, it was a lightening tour of 3 nights and saw only a very small part of tokyo - found a couple of great shops but bought mostly bike parts as at that time I was building a new one. So many great shops I missed out on, but I think the reality is I would have struggled to get to these places in the time I had there.
Hope you both have great trips, I fancy Japan for the Honeymoon (think Henry said the same when I saw him the other week) but the missus fancies San Fran, L.A. and a few days in Los Cabos.

Re: Steve McQueen's Style: Pants
Yup definitely going to try and go there for our Honeymoon. My other half is well aware of my ulterior Ivy motives. I'd love to try and get a suit made by Tailor Caid while we're there, but I'm not sure if will be possible.

fxh - that is very commendable, it sounds like a top trip - and obviously any endeavours will be much appreciated by all i'm sure.

Re: Steve McQueen's Style: Pants
I want to see a picture sitting in a hot spring with a Japanese Macaque. Bonus points if you are sharing some kind of high strength Aussie lager with them. Hope this isn't too much to ask.

Re: Steve McQueen's Style: Pants
I always fancied hanging around with the art school kids, but alas it was not to be, once spent the night getting extremely high with a conceptual art gallery owner, quite a revelation. But that was the closet I've ever got to the art world, drank with my fare share of piss artists though.
