Welcome Black Cat

Is it Ski Moc season again Moose? Those look like some serious foul weather Loafers. Bloody nice Cardi as well. Looks toasty. The shawl collar is something I'm in need of right now. I'll have a looksy at the LE ones.

Black Cat Bones- Welcome aboard. As Woolster states, that's a great pomp. That's a serious statement haircut. Nice. I also agree on the rise of the pants. The look would perhaps work better with an extra few inches rise. But it's horses for courses as always. You're miles ahead of where I was style wise at 18. I'm sure you'll pick up a lot very fast here.

BCB's look is killer! I like age appropriate ivy...as in, he can wear that today and tweed tomorrow and still be killing it. Nice thought. He has an interesting blog, too.

Spending a lot of late nights on campus in the library at the moment (Modernism won't look at itself, you know...nice art history joke for you there) so I'm all about the student scruff bag look right now...Black Shuron Freeways, Raincoat, Sero for the Crimson Shop blue oxford, edwin ed55, zero socks and white vans.

What are the 502 like Acton? I've seen them on ebay a few times but never owned any. Are they similar in cut to 60's 501's as listing measurements would suggest?

Liam,
The cut of the 502 remained the same as the 60's well into the 70's. They were a bit of a odd item for the time particularly as Levis were promoting the then new orange tab ranges, but they were a stock item in the military PX stores inventory so were probably kept on the books as a military order item.
I believe archeologists would term them a 'Lazarus Taxon', something from an older period existing unchanged well past their expected expiry date by odd circumstance.

.Youre in the gang moose we've got a rumble penciled for next tuesday against the lonely cobras, one of their gang nicked liam Mac's lunch money so we gotz to hit them back hard and fast also the gang house is completely out of monster munch

I've got my Modern Tap class at half six so that works out fine.
