Regrets, I've Had A Few...

It's not that I mind so much having parted with items of clothing - some of them have found safe havens, I know, like the circa 1950 Press sport jacket Gibson Gardens had off me via Ebay (needed a taller guy to pull it off) - but that I sometimes can't remember where they went or why...  Two great overcoats for example, one in Irish tweed the other fly-fronted Italian wool and cashmere I once wore on a trip to J.Simons...  a pair of strides he once sold me...  a circa 1970 Hector Powe flannel blazer...  The list goes on.  Has this happened to you?  As for shoes...

Oh yes, and a terrific dark green Smedley sea island cotton polo shirt which cost me next to nothing...

Mm.  It was John Simons who tipped me off about Troy, and I had no option but to go rushing to Ebay.

I found one, together with a Sero half sleeve.  I still have the Sero.

Second attempt brought better luck - aside from the colour.  I really missed out on that one.

Makes me love old Brooks all the more.
