I had a pair of greasy gibsons too, bought from Spritelet Club in Leeds circa 88/89, they were a dark brown colour - worn at the time with vintage levis and cord jacket, probably a polka for shirt too!! Aciiiiiddddd.

Bang on Tom, that or an Indie pop band member. I bought mine from Chapman's in Camberley, an old fashioned shoe shop that sold Loakes & Grensons. We have the Royal Military Academy close by, and it's where all the Hooray Henry Officer types would by their shoes from. We also had a Gieves & Hawkes in Camberley too at one time, along with Alkit which was apparently owned by Jon Moss from Culture Clubs, Father. Both these shops also catered for the Officers. BTW I still have mine although they're a bit worn down.

Top ivy v-neck action from Patrick and WM. Real clothes being worn in real life.

The look of sheer joy at the discovery of that tartan vest just warms my heart on a cold January evening

Thanks Harry.  I may not be a Harvard grad, but it sure is fun to dress the part.(There's a slight joke in there somewhere)


I managed to overlook Patrick's shots, but we were both obviously feeling the v-neck vibe.  Looking good Patrick.  Trouser detail please?

In my opinion Mercer is welcome here as he is a good guy (and i like him).
However i have to agree and i think we need clarity,this isn't Ivy in any shape or form that i understand.

Thanks AC, Czar.  The socks threw me a bit, but I'm keen on all else.  Are those the AE Bradleys?

Well said, that man.
